Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 21.4% over the past year, and 4.9% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 8.6% to 7.8% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 4.9% a year against a sector median of 10.5% — 5.6 percentage points slower.

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

At 44.8× earnings it costs 1.9× the market, which pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 55.3×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 29.8×, the 91st percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 7.5 times its growth rate, on earnings growth of 6%.

	Profit growth	Price per ₹1 profit	Per 1% growth

Bosch Limited	14%/yr	55.3×	₹3.9

Schaeffler India Limited	10%/yr	45.4×	₹4.5
Sona BLW Precision Forgings Limited	18%/yr	67.0×	₹3.7

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 81 of 101 on returns, 83 of 99 on growth, 87 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 9.2% on capital, ahead of 20% 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 ₹1142 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹989 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹199 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 296 arrived as cash — well above the profit, more than depreciation and interest account for, so do not count on it repeating. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being paid 36 days before it paid its own suppliers to paid 25 days before it paid its own suppliers.
