Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, steadily growing business, fairly priced.
Indian Motor Parts & Accessories is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 9.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.36×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about 3.3% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 12%/yr and profit at 12%/yr. Book value has grown 13%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 3.1%. In the latest quarter profit grew 8% versus the prior quarter.
At 17× earnings, the stock sits at the 47th percentile of its own 5.2-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~6%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of B, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 12% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Profit is on a 2-year growth streak.
Operating margins have been stable around 12% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 4% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. 12% 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 0.4× PAT — reported profit isn't translating into cash, raising earnings quality questions. 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 broadly flat QoQ — stable but not accelerating. Low quarterly variance (9% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 8% above earlier ones.
Quarterly net margins are expanding (8% → 11%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 5.2y median.
Promoters at 35.2% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. Promoters added 1.4pp over 4 quarters — creeping acquisition signals conviction. FIIs trimmed 2.8pp — foreign money is rotating out.
