Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Dollar Industries is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 5.7% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.30× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 6.2% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 11%/yr and profit at 27%/yr. Book value has grown 10%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 11.3%. In the latest quarter profit fell 20% versus the prior quarter.
At 14× earnings, the stock sits at the 8th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~4%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. 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. 10% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (27% vs 10%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 5% to 8% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 11% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. 27% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
1 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. Cash conversion at 1.3× 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 fell 35% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (37% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 19% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 20% 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 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 72.6% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game. FIIs trimmed 3.8pp — foreign money is rotating out.
