I would say DFCC is performing quite well and these result are quite good for blue chip large cap of it nature.
Sep Quarter EPS was 3.96/2 ( before bonus) = 1.98
Dec Quarter EPS is 2.38
Thats is 20% growth this quarter. Also COMB is not contributing as much to bottom line. So I would take this a definite improvement for a large cap as DFCC. Their growth won't jump hugely from quarter to quarter unlike a start up Finance company. It is well established.
DFCC is respected Blue Chip over the years which has taken care of it shareholders in the longer term. It has lot of Institution interest as you will see below

Though it won;t give you quick cash like other shares, this is certainly a stable company to hold in your portfolio as a long term investment.
