Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, stagnant business, priced for perfection — but flagged on governance.
Meghmani Organics is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 1.3% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 7.72× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 13.3% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -5%/yr and profit at -51%/yr. Net worth has actually shrunk (-3%/yr) — value is not being built. Return on equity is a weak 5.3%. In the latest quarter profit grew 500% versus the prior quarter.
At 48× earnings, the stock sits at the 86th percentile of its own 1.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~6%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 155% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
2 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a +371% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 12% to 3% — costs or competition are eating into profitability.
ROE at 2% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 12pp.
-88% 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 7.7× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. 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 8% sequentially — momentum is building.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 500% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (2% → 9%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 1.6y median.
Promoters at 49.0% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock.
