Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, stagnant business, priced for perfection.
Nilkamal is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 3.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 2.63× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 4.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 7%/yr and profit at -5%/yr. Book value has grown 6%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 9.7%. In the latest quarter profit grew 178% versus the prior quarter.
At 26× earnings, the stock sits at the 90th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~8%/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. 6% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (6% vs -5%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 6% to 4% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 7% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
-5% 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 2.6× 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 37% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 178% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (3% → 6%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 64.5% — majority control intact. MF stake down 6.3pp — domestic funds are booking profits or rebalancing out.
