Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Sales grew 9.4% over the past year, and -19.6% a year over its longer record. Meanwhile what it keeps of every 100 rupees of sales slipped from 8.4% to 4.0% over the last four years.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew -19.6% a year against a sector median of 10.6% — 30.2 percentage points slower.

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

At 21.9× earnings against a market that pays 23.9× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 32.0×, across 5 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 19.2×, the 63rd percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Its earnings are falling, so growth cannot justify 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 (Iron & Steel Products), it ranks 58 of 70 on returns, 65 of 68 on growth, 54 of 70 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 5.8% on capital, ahead of 17% 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 ₹45 crore of cash from the business, spent ₹13 crore on plant and equipment, and returned ₹38 crore to lenders and shareholders. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 12 years, about 63 arrived as cash. Its cash comes back more slowly than it used to: it went from being waiting 48 days for its cash to waiting 173 days for its cash.
