G M Breweries Ltd
GMBREWG M Breweries Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it.
The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only 29% 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 downtrend (5 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 33rd percentile of its own 10-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +46.2% year on year, and 29% 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.
G M Breweries Ltd trades at ₹900, in a downtrend and 5 weeks into that stage. That is −4.3% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 38% of a 52-week range of ₹676 to ₹1,264. 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 5 of stage 4, confirmed. At ₹900 it trades −4.3% versus its 200-day average and sits at 38% of its 52-week range (₹676–₹1,264).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +98% 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 33rd 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.
G M Breweries Ltd trades at 15.0× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 33% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 16.6×, measured across 10.4 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 15.0× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 33% of the time, against a long-run median of 16.6× measured over 10.4 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 +21.5% against a +23.7% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
The price move, decomposed: over 10y, of the +9.9%/yr price move, ~+8.9%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+1.0 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 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: 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).
G M Breweries Ltd reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −15.1% at the trough to +30.0%, a 4-quarter improving streak, ROCE holding at 18.0%. The read is built from 8 quarters across 4 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.
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.
| 1yr | 3yr | 5yr | 10yr | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | +17.4% | +8.0% | +17.1% | +7.6% |
| Profit | +21.7% | +16.2% | +14.4% | +10.5% |
| EPS | +21.5% | +16.2% | +14.3% | +10.4% |
| Share price | +23.7% | +23.6% | +13.2% | +9.9% |
→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.
4-Factor Sector Score
71.0/100 — rank 2 of 14 in Alcoholic Beverages · 74% evidence confidence
G M Breweries Ltd scores 71.0 out of 100 against the 14 companies it is compared with in Alcoholic Beverages, ranking 2. Confirmed research leader: earnings, capital efficiency and relative strength agree. Move to management, catalyst and risk diligence.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 28.4 + 17.6 + 11.5 + 13.5 = 71. 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.
G M Breweries Ltd reported ₹200 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +22.7% year on year. That is the 7th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 7.6% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹748 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹785 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹748 Cr (+17.4% on the year), capping 10 years at 7.6% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹200 Cr, +22.7% year on year — the 7th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +21.4% growth against the decade's 7.6% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +21.3% over the last 4 quarters against +12.4%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit +30.0% vs +3.8%/yr — accelerating.
→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 23.0% this quarter (+4.0 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.
G M Breweries Ltd's operating margin is 23.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +4.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 13.0% to 27.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 23.0%, +4.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 13.0%–27.0%.
Why the margin moved: operating margin went +4.3 pp year on year while gross margin went +5.3 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.
→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +46.2% 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.
G M Breweries Ltd earned ₹38.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +46.2% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹157 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 10.5%. That is 19.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹26.0 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹38.0 Cr, +46.2% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹157 Cr (+21.7%), and the 10-year compound rate is 10.5%.
Why profit moved: revenue contributed +22.7% and the margin +4.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +46.5% vs revenue +21.4%. 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: 29% 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 29% of G M Breweries Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹−96.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹157 Cr of profit. After ₹18.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹−114 Cr was left as free cash.
FY26: operating cash of ₹−96.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹157 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−114 Cr after ₹18.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 29% 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 29%: the cash cycle tightened 35 days between FY21 and FY26 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner. 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 7.9× 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: ₹127 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).
G M Breweries Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 31 days in FY26, down from 66 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹127 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹748 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹2.0 Cr, so roughly ₹64.0 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.
FY26: debtors at 1 days, inventory at 44 days — roughly 1.4 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 31 days, tighter than FY21's 66.
The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 44 days to sell; customers pay about 1 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 14 days — netting out to the 31-day cycle.
In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹748 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹2.0 Cr — so the 31-day loop keeps roughly ₹64.0 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.
On the investment side: capital spending of ₹127 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹16.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹47.0 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 18% and the ROIC − WACC spread is +1.2 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
G M Breweries Ltd earns a ROCE of 18% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 18% in FY25. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +1.2 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 21.0% net margin on 0.61× asset turns.
FY26 ROCE is 18%, recovered from a FY25 trough of 18% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.
Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 21.0% net margin × 0.61× asset turns × 1.14× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 14.6% on equity. Margin is doing the heavy lifting; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.
The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 13.2% − 12.0% = a +1.2 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 0.00.
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
G M Breweries Ltd carries total debt of ₹35.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,078 Cr as of Jun 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.03 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.06 in FY25 to 0.03 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.
Jun 26: total debt of ₹35.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,078 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.03. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.06 (FY25) to 0.03 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.
→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: the register is quiet.
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.
No holder of G M Breweries Ltd moved a full percentage point over the last two years — the register is quiet. Foreign institutions moved +0.0 points over the same window, to 0.6%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 74.4%; Foreign institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 0.6%; Domestic institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 0.0%.
→ 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.
G M Breweries Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.
The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.

What is G M Breweries Ltd's capex?
G M Breweries Ltd spent ₹127 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 ₹18.0 Cr, with ₹47.0 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 24 July 2026.

G M Breweries Ltd generated ₹−96.0 Cr of operating cash flow in FY26 and ₹−114 Cr of free cash flow after ₹18.0 Cr of capital spending. Reported profit that year was ₹157 Cr, so operating cash ran behind profit. Cash-flow resolution for India is annual. — as of 24 July 2026.
Is G M Breweries Ltd's profit real cash?

The latest quarter ran 23.0%. 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 G M Breweries Ltd story?
The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only 29% 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 G M Breweries Ltd a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: G M Breweries Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it. 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.
