Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales fell 1.0% over the past year. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales improved from 7.2% to 10.7% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 6.1% a year against a sector median of 9.9% — 3.8 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

It has no steady three-year profit record yet, so growth cannot be weighed against the price.

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 (Stationary), it ranks 2 of 6 on returns, 5 of 6 on growth, 4 of 6 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 19.1% on capital, ahead of 67% 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 3 years of cash statements on file it made ₹128 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹77 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹35 crore to lenders and shareholders.
