Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A weak, stagnant business, fairly priced — but flagged on governance.
Shree Digvijay Cement is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 3.3% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -16.45×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -50.4% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 1%/yr and profit at -25%/yr. Book value has grown 4%/yr. Return on equity is a weak -2.5%. In the latest quarter profit fell 14% versus the prior quarter.
At 33× earnings, the stock sits at the 57th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-0.48 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

1% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (1% vs -25%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 10% to 4% — costs or competition are eating into profitability.
ROE at 7% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 11pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. -25% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
1 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. 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 62% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (52% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 58% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 14% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (6% → 2%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 63.7% — majority control intact. Promoters added 18.6pp over 4 quarters — creeping acquisition signals conviction.
