KIRLOSKAR PNEUMATIC COM L is scored on the commodity / cyclical framework. It keeps a healthy 14.0% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.92×). Free cash flow is worth about 1.5% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 59%/yr and profit at 148%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 61%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is an elite 20.1%. In the latest quarter profit fell 77% versus the prior quarter.
At 8× earnings, the stock sits at the 31st percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~15%/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 2 financial years shown. 9% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (20% vs 9%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 17% to 19% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 20% — the business earns well above its cost of equity.
21% 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. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth. 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 fell 57% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (57% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 28% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 77% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters at 38.8% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. FII stake up 3.3pp over 4 quarters — growing foreign interest. MF stake down 2.6pp — domestic funds are booking profits or rebalancing out.
