A decent, stagnant business, reasonably priced.
Blue Dart Express is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 4.0% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 3.28× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 4.6% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 6%/yr and profit at -13%/yr. Book value has grown 15%/yr. Return on equity is a healthy 15.8%. In the latest quarter profit grew 81% versus the prior quarter.
At 44× earnings, the stock sits at the 21st percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~18%/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.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 6% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Revenue is outpacing profit (6% vs -13%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 10% to 5% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 14% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 17pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. -13% 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 3.3× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 8% sequentially — momentum is building. Low quarterly variance (8% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
Profit jumped 81% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 75.0% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
