Not applicable for this sector.
7% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (19% vs 7%) — 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. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 6pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. 24% 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 1.3× 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 rose 21% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (58% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 32% below earlier ones.
Quarterly margins are compressing (9% → 6%) — 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 3.6y median.
Promoters at 31.5% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. Promoters reduced 1.1pp over 4 quarters — watch whether this is planned divestment or pledge invocations. MF holding up 2.6pp — domestic institutional discovery underway.
