A decent, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
DOMS INDUSTRIES LIMITED is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a healthy 10.2% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 1.06×). Free cash flow is worth about 0.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 25%/yr and profit at 33%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 54%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 15.3%. In the latest quarter profit fell 22% versus the prior quarter.
At 54× earnings, the stock sits at the 2nd percentile of its own 2.9-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~24%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. 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. 24% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (33% vs 24%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 11% to 14% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 18% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 11pp.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. Profit grew faster than EPS (33% vs 28%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. 28% 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. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth. 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 rose 11% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 10% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 22% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (11% → 7%) — 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 2.9y median.
Promoter holding at 63.4% — majority control intact. Promoters reduced 7.0pp over 4 quarters — watch whether this is planned divestment or pledge invocations. MF holding up 5.8pp — domestic institutional discovery underway.
