Answers

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

How fast it has been growing

Fewer than three years of filings — too early to judge growth.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

It grew 18.4% a year against a sector median of 10.2% — 8.2 percentage points faster.

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

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 (Specialty Chemicals), it ranks 67 of 73 on returns, 13 of 72 on growth, 54 of 73 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 3.2% on capital, ahead of 8% 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

No — Over the last five years it made ₹4 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹110 crore on plant and equipment, ₹106 crore more than it made; the gap was from lenders and shareholders. But only about 20 of every 100 rupees of profit it reported over 5 years arrived as cash — the rest is tied up. Its cash comes back faster than it used to: it went from being waiting 59 days for its cash to waiting 41 days for its cash.

Every brick is the same size, about one typical day's move. A new brick needs a full brick's move; turning the other way needs two. Bricks show where the price went, not where it will go.
