Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, stagnant business, priced for perfection.
Electronics Mart Ind is scored on the consumer / fmcg framework. It keeps a thin 1.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 4.14× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 5.7% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 10%/yr and profit at -4%/yr. Book value has grown 11%/yr. Return on equity is a healthy 12.9%. In the latest quarter profit grew 204% versus the prior quarter.
At 52× earnings, the stock sits at the 83rd percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~12%/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. 10% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Revenue is outpacing profit (10% vs -4%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a -33% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 2% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 7% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. Profit grew faster than EPS (-4% vs -9%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -9% 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 4.1× 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 26% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (34% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 23% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 204% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (1% → 5%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 65.2% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game. MF stake down 3.0pp — domestic funds are booking profits or rebalancing out.
