Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, fast-growing business, priced for perfection.
Lumax Auto Tech is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 6.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.36× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 1.1% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 38%/yr and profit at 45%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 20%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is an elite 25.8%. In the latest quarter profit grew 18% versus the prior quarter.
At 57× earnings, the stock sits at the 93rd percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~18%/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. 38% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (45% vs 38%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a +47% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 8% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 23% — the business earns well above its cost of equity. High ROE despite single-digit margins — an asset-turn play with high capital velocity. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 10pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. 44% 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 1.4× 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 14% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 9% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 18% 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 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 56.0% — majority control intact. FIIs have accumulated for 3 straight quarters — sustained foreign institutional conviction.
