Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 8.7% over the past year, and 12.4% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 16.3% to 13.6% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 12.4% a year against a sector median of 8.5% — 3.9 percentage points faster.

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

At 15.2× earnings against a market that pays 23.9× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 35.7×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 21.1×, the 13th percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 3.0 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 5%.

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 (Cement & Cement Products), it ranks 8 of 34 on returns, 10 of 31 on growth, 13 of 34 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 12% on capital, ahead of 76% 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 ₹4079 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹3431 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹327 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 269 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 paid 66 days before it paid its own suppliers to paid 38 days before it paid its own suppliers.

Profit reality check

News impact

Big market events that reach JK Lakshmi Cement Limited, and how the effect spreads.

Who it hits first

  • Cement majors (ULTRACEMCO, ACC, AMBUJACEM, SHREECEM) — volume + price tailwind
  • Mid-caps (DALBHARAT, RAMCOCEM, JKCEMENT) — operating leverage on price hike
  • Smaller (INDIACEM, JKLAKSHMI) — mixed, INDIACEM dominated by UltraTech acquisition story

Who may gain

  • Capital goods + construction (Larsen, KEC) — downstream demand for infra capex
  • Logistics (CONCOR) — cement movement volume support

Along the supply chain

Downstream

Real estate developers + infra contractors absorb price hikes if execution is steady; rural/affordable housing partially price-sensitive.

Upstream

Limestone + coal/petcoke + power cost trajectory key; freight relief from crude softening (EVT1) is positive feedback.

Where demand moves

Business

Industry-wide volume growth + price hike combination supports EBITDA/tonne expansion. Consolidation (UltraTech-IndiaCem, Adani-ACC-Ambuja) supports pricing discipline.

Capital

Capital flows to cement majors with capacity ramp visibility (UltraTech, Adani); regional consolidation winners (Dalmia, Ramco).
