1. At a Glance – The 30-Second Reality Check
SG Mart is that stock which looks like a construction material Amazon on the surface but behaves like a thin-margin kirana store in the P&L. Market cap of ₹4,361 Cr, current price ₹349, trailing P/E of 42.4, ROE 9%, ROCE 11.3%, operating margin 1.93%, and quarterly PAT ₹10.7 Cr despite doing ₹1,644 Cr of Q3 revenue.
Yes, this is a company selling steel, tiles, wires, and literally everything that can fall on your foot at a construction site — but earning margins thinner than tissue paper.
Promoters? Reduced from 75% to 36% over time.
Other income? ₹77 Cr doing heavy lifting in earnings.
Capex? ₹600 Cr announced.
Valuation? Priced like a tech platform, operating like a distributor.
This is not a boring stock. It is a confusing stock. And confusing stocks are where retail emotions and institutional spreadsheets fight daily.
So let’s unpack this properly — without hopium.
2. Introduction – From Kintech Renewables to Steel Supermarket
SG Mart was earlier called Kintech Renewables Ltd — which already tells you that the current business model is not what the original shell was built for.
Post change in control, the company reinvented itself as a tech-enabled B2B construction material marketplace, offering 27+ product categories and 2,500+ SKUs.
Think of it as:
“We don’t manufacture steel, we move steel. We don’t make tiles, we move tiles. We don’t invent margins, we survive on volumes.”
The takeover story added masala — relatives of Sanjay Gupta of APL
Apollo group came in, made an open offer at ₹450, and the market instantly assumed “APL Apollo lite loading…”
Reality check:
APL Apollo = manufacturer + branding + margins
SG Mart = distributor + working capital + logistics stress
Same surname energy, very different balance sheets.
3. Business Model – WTF Do They Even Do?
SG Mart positions itself as a one-stop B2B procurement platform for construction and infrastructure players.
What they sell:
- Steel (TMT bars, HR coils, tubes)
- Cement & tiles
- Sanitaryware, laminates, bath fittings
- Electricals, lighting, cables, switches
- Soon: MS bars, channels, beams, barbed wire
What they don’t control:
- Pricing power
- Brand premium
- Raw material volatility
Warehouses: Pune, Bangalore, Dujana, Raipur
Customers: 800+
Suppliers: 90+
Brand partners: JSW Steel, NMDC, Jindal Power, Hindustan Zinc, Kajaria, Havells
This is a volume game, not a margin game. If trucks stop moving, earnings stop breathing.
Question for you:
👉 Do you pay 42× earnings for a logistics-heavy trading business?
