Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Our sales figures for this company step up at Jun 2018 and we hold nothing that says why, so we cannot honestly quote a growth rate across it.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

Our sales figures for this company step up at Jun 2018 and we hold nothing that says why, so there is no honest growth rate of its own to set against its sector.

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

At 4.6× earnings against a market that pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 52.1×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 6.6×, the 2nd percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 0.2 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 24%.

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 (Auto Components & Equipments), it ranks 68 of 101 on returns, 38 of 99 on growth, 1 of 101 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 13.1% on capital, ahead of 33% 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 ₹280 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹12 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹10 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 64 arrived as cash. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 115 days for its cash to waiting 140 days for its cash.
