Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd trades at ₹907, in a downtrend and 79 weeks into that stage. That is +2.8% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 63% of a 52-week range of ₹702 to ₹1,029. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (1 week and counting).

Today the stock is in a downtrend — week 79 of stage 4, confirmed. At ₹907 it trades +2.8% versus its 200-day average and sits at 63% of its 52-week range (₹702–₹1,029).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +1% while the NIFTY 500 moved +274% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (1 week and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-07-10) — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: the P/E sits at the 97th percentile of its own range.

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd trades at 28.8× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (97th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 19.7×, measured across 7.1 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 28.8× is at the pricey end of its own range (97th percentile), against a long-run median of 19.7× measured over 7.1 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −5.2% against a −7.1% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +4.5%/yr price move, ~−4.1%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+8.6 pp from the multiple (expanding). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

Put together: the multiple is full against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 23% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.

Stage: Turning around Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −33.7% at the trough to +93.8%, a 2-quarter improving streak (single-quarter readings), ROCE slipping at 12.0%. The read is built from 10 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Why it matters: growth inflections are where re-ratings start — the curves say a turn is forming, so the question becomes whether the next quarters confirm it.

One or more growth curves carry a base-effect spike — a large year-on-year move off a near-zero or loss-making comparable quarter. Those spikes are capped before the classifier reads the trajectory, and shown pinned on the chart, so a single distorted quarter does not drive the stage call.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.

4-Factor Sector Score

33.9/100 — rank 2 of 3 in Auto Ancillaries - Batteries · 80% evidence confidence

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd scores 33.9 out of 100 against the 3 companies it is compared with in Auto Ancillaries - Batteries, ranking 2. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 8.9 + 14.6 + 7.9 + 2.5 = 33.9. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd reported ₹3,536 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +15.6% year on year. That is the 10th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 7 years it has compounded at 10.7% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹13,814 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹13,814 Cr.

Over 7 years it has compounded at 10.7% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹13,814 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹13,814 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹13,814 Cr (+7.5% on the year), capping 7 years at 10.7% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹3,536 Cr, +15.6% year on year — the 10th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +7.7% growth against the decade's 10.7% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +7.5% over the last 4 quarters against +8.6%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising; TTM profit −5.3% vs −2.1%/yr — rolling over.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 11.0% this quarter (+0.0 pp YoY).

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd's operating margin is 11.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +0.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 11.0% to 16.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd's operating margin is 11.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +0.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 11.0% to 16.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 11.0%, +0.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 11.0%–16.0%.

🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −0.2 pp year on year while gross margin went −1.5 pp — the loss came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +93.8% in the latest quarter.

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd earned ₹314 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +93.8% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹896 Cr. The 7-year compound rate is 9.2%. That is 8.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹162 Cr.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd earned ₹314 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +93.8% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹896 Cr. The 7-year compound rate is 9.2%. That is 8.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹162 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹314 Cr, +93.8% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹896 Cr (−5.2%), and the 7-year compound rate is 9.2%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +15.6% and the margin +0.0 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +6.0% vs revenue +7.7%. Profit and revenue are moving roughly in step.

→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 135% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 135% of Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹1,118 Cr of operating cash against ₹896 Cr of profit. After ₹1,610 Cr of capital spending, ₹−492 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹1,118 Cr against reported profit of ₹896 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−492 Cr after ₹1,610 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 135% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

Why conversion sits at 135%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY21 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 2.4× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: ₹3,936 Cr of building over 3 years.

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 85 days in FY26, down from 93 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹3,936 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹13,814 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹37.8 Cr, so roughly ₹3,217 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 33 days, inventory at 98 days — roughly 3.2 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 85 days, tighter than FY21's 93.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 98 days to sell; customers pay about 33 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 46 days — netting out to the 85-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹13,814 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹37.8 Cr — so the 85-day loop keeps roughly ₹3,217 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹3,936 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹1,617 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹1,658 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROCE is 12%.

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd earns a ROCE of 12% in FY26. A return-on-invested-capital spread against the cost of capital is not computable from what is held here. The wiring behind it is 6.5% net margin on 1.21× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 12%.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 6.5% net margin × 1.21× asset turns × 1.41× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 11.1% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The quarterly return curves and the return-on-invested-capital overlay, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 23% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.05.

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings; interest cover says how many times operating profit pays the interest bill. Low and high, respectively, is the safe corner.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd carries ₹406 Cr of borrowings against ₹8,099 Cr of equity in FY26, a debt-to-equity of 0.05. Operating profit covers the interest bill 33×. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹92.0 Cr to ₹406 Cr. Capital spending ran ₹3,936 Cr across the last 3 of those years.

FY26: borrowings of ₹406 Cr against equity of ₹8,099 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.05. Operating profit covers the interest bill 33×. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹92.0 Cr to ₹406 Cr while capital spending ran ₹3,936 Cr in just the last 3 — part of the build-out is riding on borrowed money.

The total-debt and debt-to-equity series, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 23% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Foreign institutions cut 6.5 points over 8 quarters.

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Foreign institutions cut 6.5 points of Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes foreign institutions to 17.3% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +0.8 points over the same window, to 15.3%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Foreign institutions: −6.5 points over 8 quarters to 17.3%; Domestic institutions: +0.8 points over 8 quarters to 15.3%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 32.9%.

🚨 Why the register moved: foreign institutions drove it (−6.5 points), absorbed on the other side by domestic institutions (+0.8 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.

→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd: the Z-score is withheld — it comes from the second data source this page could not reconcile, and a solvency score is not worth printing on a number two sources dispute. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is withheld — it comes from the second data source this page could not reconcile, and a solvency score is not worth printing on a number two sources dispute.
