Divine Power Energy Ltd
DPELDivine Power Energy Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 22nd percentile of its own 2-year range — the business is moving before the market.
The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only −112% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as operating cash — the gap between the P&L and the bank account is the thing to watch.
The price is in a confirmed uptrend (65 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 22nd percentile of its own 2-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +280.0% year on year, and −112% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the cash starts following the profit.
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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd trades at ₹580, in a confirmed uptrend and 65 weeks into that stage. That is +51.8% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 100% of a 52-week range of ₹144 to ₹580. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 2 straight weeks.
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 65 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹580 it trades +51.8% versus its 200-day average and sits at 100% of its 52-week range (₹144–₹580).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 2.0 years the stock moved +344% while the NIFTY 500 moved +2% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 2 straight weeks — 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 22nd 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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd trades at 52.9× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 22% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 74.7×, measured across 2.1 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 52.9× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 22% of the time, against a long-run median of 74.7× measured over 2.1 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.
One caveat before moving on: margins are the best this company has ever printed — cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap. If profitability mean-reverts, today's multiple is higher than it looks.
🚨 Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved +177.9% against a +308.7% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
Put together: the multiple is low against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.
A quarterly PEG curve, which only the second data source carries, is not drawn on this page: its two data sources do not share enough overlapping reported history to be compared. A figure nobody could check is not used to price growth — 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: No read 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).
Divine Power Energy Ltd reads as no read on its fundamental arc. Under eight usable quarters on the growth trio — not enough history for an honest trajectory read. The read is built from 4 quarters across 1 curve, on partial evidence.
Why it matters: with too little history, an honest page says so instead of guessing a trajectory.
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.
Fewer than eight usable quarters on the growth curves — this page will not guess a trajectory from a stub of history.

4-Factor Sector Score
67.2/100 — rank 3 of 3 in Metals · 53% evidence confidence
Divine Power Energy Ltd scores 67.2 out of 100 against the 3 companies it is compared with in Metals, ranking 3. Fill the missing evidence before acting; the ranking is deliberately pulled toward neutral.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 22 + 15.2 + 10 + 20 = 67.2. 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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd reported ₹346 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +74.7% year on year. That is the 4th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 5 years it has compounded at 40.1% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹626 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹967 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹626 Cr (+83.0% on the year), capping 5 years at 40.1% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹346 Cr, +74.7% year on year — the 4th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +68.7% growth against the decade's 40.1% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.
→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 10.0% this quarter (+5.0 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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd's operating margin is 10.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +5.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across the last four quarters the operating margin has moved +3.0 percentage points.
Divine Power Energy Ltd's operating margin is 10.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +5.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across the last four quarters the operating margin has moved +3.0 percentage points.
The latest quarter's operating margin is 10.0%, +5.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 6 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 4.0%–8.0%, and FY26's 8.0% is the top of that band — a record year.
Why the margin moved: operating margin went +2.6 pp year on year while gross margin went +4.5 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.
Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.
→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +280.0% 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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd earned ₹19.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +280.0% year on year. It is the 4th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹27.0 Cr. The 5-year compound rate is 93.3%. That is 5.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹4.0 Cr.

The 5-year compound rate is 93.3%. That is 5.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹4.0 Cr.
Mar 26 profit was ₹19.0 Cr, +280.0% year on year — the 4th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹27.0 Cr (+200.0%), and the 5-year compound rate is 93.3%.
Why profit moved: revenue contributed +74.7% and the margin +5.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +126.3% vs revenue +68.7%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.
→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: −112% 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 −112% of Divine Power Energy Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹−25.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹27.0 Cr of profit. After ₹73.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹−98.0 Cr was left as free cash.
FY26: operating cash of ₹−25.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹27.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−98.0 Cr after ₹73.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is −112% 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 −112%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY21 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle. Less than 70% of profit arriving as cash is the thing to watch on this page.
Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 15.2× 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: ₹76.0 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).
Divine Power Energy Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 115 days in FY26, up from 114 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹76.0 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹626 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹1.7 Cr, so roughly ₹197 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.
FY26: debtors at 49 days, inventory at 92 days — roughly 3.0 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 115 days, looser than FY21's 114.
The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 92 days to sell; customers pay about 49 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 26 days — netting out to the 115-day cycle.
In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹626 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹1.7 Cr — so the 115-day loop keeps roughly ₹197 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.
On the investment side: capital spending of ₹76.0 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹5.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹1.0 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 15% and the ROIC − WACC spread is +0.3 pp.
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.⚠ unverified
Divine Power Energy Ltd earns a ROCE of 15% in FY25. That is up from a trough of 9% in FY22. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +0.3 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 4.3% net margin on 1.86× asset turns.
FY25 ROCE is 15%, recovered from a FY22 trough of 9% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.
Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 4.3% net margin × 1.86× asset turns × 2.61× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 20.9% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.
The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 12.3% − 12.0% = a +0.3 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Positive but thin — value creation with little room for error.
→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 1.21.
Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.⚠ unverified
Divine Power Energy Ltd carries total debt of ₹156 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹129 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 1.21. On the annual view that ratio went from 2.23 in FY24 to 1.21 in FY26. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.
Mar 26: total debt of ₹156 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹129 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 1.21. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 2.23 (FY24) to 1.21 (FY26). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.
→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Promoters cut 10.3 points over 4 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.
Promoters cut 10.3 points of Divine Power Energy Ltd over 4 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 63.2% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −1.9 points over the same window, to 0.0%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Promoters: −10.3 points over 4 quarters to 63.2%; Domestic institutions: −1.9 points over 4 quarters to 0.0%; Foreign institutions: −0.6 points over 4 quarters to 0.0%.
🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−10.3 points), alongside domestic institutions (−1.9 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.
Divine Power Energy Ltd: the Z-score reads 4.26. A Z-score above roughly 3 reads as safe and below roughly 1.8 as the distress zone, so this sits well clear of distress. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure.
Why it matters: a Z-score of 4.26 sits well clear of the distress zone — the balance sheet is not the risk here.
The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score reads 4.26.

What is Divine Power Energy Ltd's capex?
Divine Power Energy Ltd spent ₹76.0 Cr on capital expenditure over the last 3 fiscal years, a figure derived from the change in fixed assets plus depreciation. In FY26 alone that was ₹73.0 Cr, with ₹1.0 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 24 July 2026.
What is Divine Power Energy Ltd's cash flow?
Divine Power Energy Ltd generated ₹−25.0 Cr of operating cash flow in FY26 and ₹−98.0 Cr of free cash flow after ₹73.0 Cr of capital spending. Reported profit that year was ₹27.0 Cr, so operating cash ran behind profit. Cash-flow resolution for India is annual. — as of 24 July 2026.
Is Divine Power Energy Ltd's profit real cash?

Where is Divine Power Energy Ltd in its business cycle?
Divine Power Energy Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 8.0%, against a 6-year band of 4.0%–8.0%: the top of the band — a record year. Record profitability is late-cycle territory: every ratio flatters at the top, and the story leans on margins holding. The latest quarter ran 10.0%. Profitability versus a company's own long band is the cleanest cycle clock this page holds — as of 24 July 2026.
What could break the Divine Power Energy Ltd story?
The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only −112% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as operating cash — the gap between the P&L and the bank account is the thing to watch. Mechanically, two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day average would end the price trend — that is the exit rule this page tracks — as of 24 July 2026.
Is Divine Power Energy Ltd a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: Divine Power Energy Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 22nd percentile of its own 2-year range — the business is moving before the market. The sharpest open question: whether the cash starts following the profit. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 24 July 2026.
