Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 18.5% over the past year, and 15.9% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales improved from 15.5% to 18.5% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 15.9% a year against a sector median of 10.2% — 5.7 percentage points faster.

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

At 10.4× earnings against a market that pays 23.9× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 20.8×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 17.3×, the 1st percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Priced at 0.4 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 (Pesticides & Agrochemicals), it ranks 1 of 23 on returns, 8 of 23 on growth, 4 of 23 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 30.2% on capital, ahead of 96% 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 ₹2196 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹1640 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹411 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 121 arrived as cash (before interest, which is why it can exceed the profit). Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 88 days for its cash to waiting 102 days for its cash.

Profit reality check

Is the profit real cash? Simple checks on the accounts. Facts only, not advice.
