Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 11.8% over the past year, and 5.6% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales held steady, near 24.2% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 5.6% a year against a sector median of 11.6% — 6.0 percentage points slower.

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

At 18.3× earnings against a market that pays 23.9× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 10.8×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 18.8×, the 46th percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 3.0 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 6%.

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 (Lubricants), it ranks 1 of 7 on returns, 6 of 7 on growth, 1 of 7 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 wide advantage: it earns 60.3% on capital, ahead of 86% 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 ₹4533 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹472 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹3964 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 106 arrived as cash (before interest, which is why it can exceed the profit). Its cash comes back faster than it used to: it went from being paid 8 days before it paid its own suppliers to paid 13 days before it paid its own suppliers.
