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 (Aerospace & Defense), it ranks 5 of 26 on returns, 3 of 24 on growth, 11 of 26 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 30.7% on capital, ahead of 81% 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 4 years of cash statements on file it made ₹65 crore of cash from the business and spent ₹38 crore on plant and equipment, with ₹27 crore to spare; it still raised ₹63 crore from shareholders — borrowings did not rise.

The price as a Renko brick chart: small moves drop out so the bigger path stands out.
Every brick is the same size, about one typical day's move. A new brick needs a full brick's move; turning the other way needs two. Bricks show where the price went, not where it will go.
