Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 6.5% over the past year, and 14.5% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 15.3% to 11.1% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 14.5% a year against a sector median of 8.5% — 6.1 percentage points faster.

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

At 11.2× earnings against a market that pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 34.3×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 13.4×, the 37th percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 0.2 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 70%.

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 7 of 34 on returns, 5 of 31 on growth, 15 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 12.2% on capital, ahead of 79% 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

No — Over the last five years it made ₹539 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹576 crore on plant and equipment, ₹37 crore more than it made, paid from its own cash and investments. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 95 arrived as cash. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 4 days for its cash to waiting 37 days for its cash.
