A decent business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
Jai Corp is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a fat 25.4% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.08×) — worth a closer look. It throws off free cash worth 6.2% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Book value has been broadly flat (1.3%/yr). Return on equity is a modest 11.3%. In the latest quarter profit grew 36% versus the prior quarter.
At 9× earnings, the stock sits at the 4th percentile of its own 2.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~7%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 79% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

2% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
1 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a +155% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 1% to 29% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 11% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 12pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. 81% 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 0.1× 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 rose 30% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 36% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 2.6y median.
Promoters hold 73.9% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
