Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
Genus Power Infrastru is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a healthy 11.7% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -0.39×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -7.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 80%/yr and profit at 167%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 31%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is an elite 26.7%. In the latest quarter profit grew 4% versus the prior quarter.
At 13× earnings, the stock sits at the 3rd percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~3%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-0.73 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 80% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (167% vs 80%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a +88% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 5% to 16% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned. The gap between operating and net margin is widening — interest or tax costs are rising.
ROE at 25% — the business earns well above its cost of equity. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 22pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. Profit grew faster than EPS (167% vs 157%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. 157% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
3 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 10% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 29% above earlier ones.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters at 39.3% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. FIIs trimmed 11.3pp — foreign money is rotating out.
