Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, stagnant business, reasonably priced — but flagged on governance.
B.L.Kashyap & Son is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 0.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 73.98× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 4.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 7%/yr and profit at -59%/yr. Book value has grown 6%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 2.6%.
At 38× earnings, the stock sits at the 25th percentile of its own 3-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 79% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

7% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (7% vs -59%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a -94% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 2% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 0% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. -59% 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 74.0× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. Financing outflows in consecutive years — balance-sheet discipline through debt repayment or dividends.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 9% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown.
2 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 180% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-2% → 3%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3y median.
Promoter holding at 61.7% — majority control intact.
