Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, slow-growing business, fully valued.
Magadh Sugar is scored on the commodity / cyclical framework. It keeps a slim 5.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 2.19× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about -1.4% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 9%/yr and profit at 8%/yr. Book value has grown 11%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 7.2%. In the latest quarter profit fell 125% versus the prior quarter.
At 12× earnings, the stock sits at the 78th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~5%/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 is on a 2-year growth streak. 9% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
The latest year saw a -42% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 7% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 7% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. 8% 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 2.2× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. 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 rose 6% sequentially — momentum is building. Low quarterly variance (10% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
2 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 125% 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.
Promoter holding at 61.0% — majority control intact.
