Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A weak business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
Ashima is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin -92.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Free cash flow is worth about -28.8% of its market value.
Book value has grown 7%/yr. Return on equity is a weak -2.8%. In the latest quarter profit fell 1146% versus the prior quarter.
At 3× earnings, the stock sits at the 1st percentile of its own 3-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-1.67 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
2 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent.
Operating margin has compressed from 12% to -28% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. The gap between operating and net margin is widening — interest or tax costs are rising.
Negative ROE — the business is destroying shareholder value. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 13pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. 441% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
4 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 57% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (56% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 75% above earlier ones.
3 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 1146% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (-35% → -127%) — 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 3y median.
Promoters hold 73.5% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
