Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales fell 39.3% over the past year. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 41.0% to -27.5% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew -5.3% a year against a sector median of 10.2% — 15.5 percentage points slower.

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

It has no earnings, so there is no price-to-earnings to compare.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

It has no earnings to weigh the price against.

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 (Specialty Chemicals), it ranks 73 of 73 on returns, 67 of 72 on growth, 73 of 73 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?

It is losing money on the capital in the business, so there is no advantage to measure.

Whether its growth pays for itself

No — Over the last five years it made ₹49 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹69 crore on plant and equipment, ₹20 crore more than it made; the gap was from lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 11 years, about 103 arrived as cash (before interest, which is why it can exceed the profit). Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 40 days for its cash to waiting 244 days for its cash.
