Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, reasonably priced — but flagged on governance.
Trans & Recti is scored on the commodity / cyclical framework. It keeps a healthy 10.6% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -0.39×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -1.2% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 22%/yr and profit at 86%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 57%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is an elite 18.4%. In the latest quarter profit grew 27% versus the prior quarter.
At 34× earnings, the stock sits at the 31st percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~14%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹0.19 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

22% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (86% vs 22%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 4% to 14% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned. The gap between operating and net margin is widening — interest or tax costs are rising.
ROE at 18% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 7pp across the window.
Profit grew faster than EPS (86% vs 43%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. 43% 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.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 26% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 14% below earlier ones.
Profit jumped 27% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 64.4% — majority control intact. MF stake down 2.8pp — domestic funds are booking profits or rebalancing out.
