Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales fell 1.4% over the past year. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 15.6% to 13.5% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 15.6% a year against a sector median of 9.1% — 6.5 percentage points faster.

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

At 6.3× earnings against a market that pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 29.3×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 15.4×, the 1st percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 0.2 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 26%.

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 (Civil Construction), it ranks 46 of 89 on returns, 25 of 84 on growth, 41 of 90 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 13.3% on capital, ahead of 48% 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 ₹2743 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹655 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹2172 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 704 arrived as cash — well above the profit; depreciation and interest are the reason, not a windfall. Its cash comes back faster than it used to: it went from being waiting 140 days for its cash to waiting 81 days for its cash.
