3. ð Financials â Profit, Margins, ROE, Growth
Metric | FY21 | FY22 | FY23 | FY24 | FY25 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Revenue (â¹ Cr) | 65 | 93 | 138 | 143 | 155 |
Net Profit (â¹ Cr) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
Net Margin (%) | 3.1% | 3.2% | 2.9% | 3.5% | 3.9% |
ROE (%) | 21.3% | 22.4% | 21.5% | 21.0% | 21.3% |
Dividend Yield | 2.94% | â | â | â | â |
ð§ Key Takeaways:
- Revenue CAGR (FY21âFY25): ~24%
- Profit CAGR: ~30%
- Margins slightly improving post-COVID era
- EPS in FY25: â¹7.55 â At CMP â¹68, thatâs a P/E of ~9x
4. ð§® Valuation â Is It Cheap, Meh, or Crack?
Letâs check relative sanity:
- Stock P/E: 9
- ROCE: 23.9%
- ROE: 21.3%
- Dividend Yield: 2.94% (in SME? hello!)
- Book Value: â¹37.8 â Price/Book ~1.8x
ð Fair Value Range (Valuation Logic)
Letâs assume FY26 EPS ~â¹8.7 (15% growth), and apply:
- Conservative P/E (8x): â¹70
- Optimistic P/E (12x): â¹104
- Very Optimistic P/E (15x): â¹130
ð¯ FV Range: â¹70 â â¹104 (with â¹130 as upside tail scenario)
So⊠current price â¹68 is close to fair value, but not screaming âundervalued.â
5. ð¿ Whatâs Cooking â News, Triggers, Drama
- â No deviation in IPO fund utilization (June 2025 update)
- â Promoter holding stable at 73.3%

- Higher-margin laminated FMCG contracts
6. ðïž Balance Sheet â How Much Debt, How Many Dreams?
Year | Borrowings (â¹ Cr) | Reserves (â¹ Cr) | Equity (â¹ Cr) |
---|---|---|---|
FY21 | 8 | 5 | 3 |
FY25 | 10 | 21 | 8 |
- D/E ratio < 0.5 â Healthy
- Assets: â¹57 Cr total
- No scary working capital issues

7. ðž Cash Flow â Sab Number Game Hai

---|---|---|
FY23 | â¹7 | â¹4â5 Cr |
FY24 | â¹3 | â¹1â2 Cr |
FY25 | â¹6 | â¹3â4 Cr |

8. 𧪠Ratios â Sexy or Stressy?
Ratio | FY25 |
---|---|
ROE | 21.3% |
ROCE | 23.9% |
Debt/Equity | ~0.48x |
Working Capital Days | 32 |
OPM | 6% |

Verdict: Very SME Efficient. These are âgrown-upâ ratios.
9. ð¥ P&L Breakdown â Show Me the Money
- Sales grew from â¹45 Cr (FY20) to â¹155 Cr (FY25)
- Profit tripled from â¹2 Cr to â¹6 Cr
- Margins are thin (~6% OPM), but stable

10. âïž Peer Comparison â Who Else in the Game?
Peer | CMP (â¹) | P/E | ROCE | OPM | Mcap (â¹ Cr) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
D.K. Ent. | 68 | 9 | 23.9% | 6% | â¹51 Cr |
EPL Ltd | 232.75 | 20.6 | 17.5% | 19.8% | â¹7,451 Cr |
AGI Greenpac | 779.90 | 15.7 | 20.1% | 24.3% | â¹5,050 Cr |
TCPL Packaging | 3,735 | 24.1 | 20.1% | 16.9% | â¹3,410 Cr |
XPRO India | 1,220 | 71.0 | 7.9% | 9.5% | â¹2,720 Cr |
ð¡ DK is the SME underdog. High ROCE, low P/E, but much smaller scale and thinner margins.
11. 𧬠Misc â Promoters, Shareholding, Goodies
- Promoter Holding: 73.3% (solid ðª)
- DII stake: 4.58% â rare in SMEs!
- Retail float is small â makes it volatile
- ~350 shareholders. Still illiquid-ish.
ð§ââïž EduInvesting Verdictâ¢
â
Profitable
â
Growing
â
Debt light
â
Dividends in SME = ð€¯
â
Cheap valuation
But…
â ïž Growth slowing
â ïž Margins remain thin
â ïž Volatility risk due to low float
ð¯ FV Range: â¹70 â â¹104
â¡ïž Currently priced at â¹68 = Fair, not fire-sale
This tape may not stick like Fevicol, but it ainât peeling off either.
