Answers
Simple answers to the questions investors ask most, from the company's own numbers.
How fast it has been growing
Sales grew 2.4% over the past year, and 10.7% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales held steady, near 13.0% over the last four years.
Whether it grew faster than its sector
It grew 10.7% a year against a sector median of 10.6% — 0.1 percentage points faster.
Room to re-rate, or risk of de-rating
At 10.4× earnings against a market that pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 15.7×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 10.4×, the 50th percentile of its own range.
Whether growth justifies the valuation
Priced at 0.6 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 17%.

Compared with companies filed under the same label. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.
How it compares with its peers
Against companies the exchange files under the same label (Industrial Minerals), it ranks 5 of 10 on returns, 5 of 8 on growth, 5 of 10 on margin. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.
What makes it hard to beat — and is that still true?
A narrow advantage: it earns 17.3% on capital, ahead of 50% of companies filed under the same label. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.
Whether its growth pays for itself
Yes — Over the last five years it made ₹288 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹155 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹65 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 158 arrived as cash — well above the profit; depreciation and interest are the reason, not a windfall. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 31 days for its cash to waiting 45 days for its cash.

Price trend
The price as a Renko brick chart: small moves drop out so the bigger path stands out.
Every brick is the same size, about one typical day's move. A new brick needs a full brick's move; turning the other way needs two. Bricks show where the price went, not where it will go.
