Answers

Simple answers to the questions investors ask most, from the company's own numbers.

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 21.3% over the past year, and 10.8% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 18.1% to 12.2% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 10.8% a year against a sector median of 11.6% — 0.8 percentage points slower.

Room to re-rate, or risk of de-rating

At 23.6× earnings against a market that pays 23.9× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 13.9×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 24.7×, the 47th percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Its earnings are falling, so growth cannot justify the price.

Sindhu Trade Links Limited116%/yr49.7×—

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 across the whole Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels sector, it ranks 38 of 46 on returns, 25 of 43 on growth, 24 of 47 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?

No durable advantage shows in the numbers: it earns 7.6% on capital, ahead of 17% of companies across its whole sector. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.

Whether its growth pays for itself

No — Over the last five years it made ₹60 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹66 crore on plant and equipment, ₹6 crore more than it made, paid from its own cash and investments. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 10 years, about 292 arrived as cash — well above the profit; depreciation and interest are the reason, not a windfall. Its cash comes back faster than it used to: it went from being waiting 21 days for its cash to paid 19 days before it paid its own suppliers.
