Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, fast-growing business, priced for perfection.
MAHAMAYA STEEL is scored on the commodity / cyclical framework. It keeps a thin 1.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.80×). Free cash flow is worth about -0.3% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 11%/yr and profit at 21%/yr. Book value has grown 6%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 6.0%. In the latest quarter profit fell 48% versus the prior quarter.
At 250× earnings, the stock sits at the 99th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~44%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. 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. 11% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (21% vs 11%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margins have been stable around 1% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 6% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. 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. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion. Raising capital despite positive cash flow — could signal expansion plans or opportunistic fundraising.
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. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 29% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 48% 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 hold 72.8% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
