Answers
Simple answers to the questions investors ask most, from the company's own numbers.
How fast it has been growing
Sales grew 17.1% over the past year, and 4.7% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales held steady, near 12.9% over the last two years.
Whether it grew faster than its sector
It grew 4.7% a year against a sector median of 10.5% — 5.7 percentage points slower.
Room to re-rate, or risk of de-rating
Too little price history yet to compare it with its own past.
Whether growth justifies the valuation
Priced at 1.3 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 21%.

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 51 of 101 on returns, 85 of 99 on growth, 48 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 16.4% on capital, ahead of 50% 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 ₹105 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹187 crore on plant and equipment, ₹82 crore more than it made; the gap was from shareholders — borrowings did not rise. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 7 years, about 62 arrived as cash. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 25 days for its cash to waiting 124 days for its cash.

Price trend
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.
