Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, steadily growing business, reasonably priced.
Visaka Industries is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 5.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 2.15× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 29.2% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 0%/yr and profit at 17%/yr. Book value has been broadly flat (2.3%/yr). Return on equity is a weak 4.6%. In the latest quarter profit grew 32% versus the prior quarter.
At 9× earnings, the stock sits at the 26th percentile of its own 1.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~-3%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

0% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
1 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a +2936% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 4% to 6% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned. Margins have declined for 2 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 10% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
26% 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 2.1× 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 23% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (45% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 54% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 32% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-3% → 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.
Promoter holding at 53.5% — majority control intact.
