Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, slow-growing business, reasonably priced.
VST Tillers Tractors is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 8.4% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.26× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about -0.1% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 7%/yr and profit at 4%/yr. Book value has grown 10%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 9.3%. In the latest quarter profit grew 851% versus the prior quarter.
At 33× earnings, the stock sits at the 39th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~15%/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.

6% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Operating margins have been stable around 11% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 10% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
4% 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 1.3× 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 15% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 851% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (8% → 14%) — 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 55.5% — majority control intact.
