Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A weak business, priced for perfection — but flagged on governance.
Bombay Dyeing & MFG. CO is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 1.7% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -6.76×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about 1.3% of its market value.
Return on equity is a weak 1.2%. In the latest quarter profit fell 66% versus the prior quarter.
At 80× earnings, the stock sits at the 82nd percentile of its own 2.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~32%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. The forensic screen raises 2 red flags: Only ₹0.34 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash; 428% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

Revenue declined 8% in the latest year — a break from prior trajectory. Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window.
1 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a -95% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from -18% to 2% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 1% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 158pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. -90% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
2 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. 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 broadly flat QoQ — stable but not accelerating. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 17% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 66% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 2.6y median.
Promoter holding at 53.6% — majority control intact.
