Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Ashiana Housing is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 9.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 2.90× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 8.2% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 41%/yr and profit at 62%/yr. Book value has grown 4%/yr. Return on equity is a healthy 15.6%. In the latest quarter profit fell 38% versus the prior quarter.
At 29× earnings, the stock sits at the 5th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~12%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

41% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Profit is growing faster than revenue (62% vs 41%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a +546% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 8% to 13% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 14% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 10pp across the window.
62% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
Operating cash flow has been positive every year — the business generates real cash, not just accounting profit. Cash conversion at 2.9× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 64% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (68% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 17% below earlier ones.
Profit fell 38% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (16% → 11%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 61.1% — majority control intact.
