Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd

JPPOWER
Power - Generation/Distribution

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 35th percentile of its own 10-year range — the business is moving before the market.

The sharpest disagreement: Domestic institutions moved −7.0 points over 8 quarters while the operating story went the other way — someone close to the numbers is not convinced.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (10 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 35th percentile of its own 10-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +68.7% year on year, and 216% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the register turns back in the story’s favour.

01 · Price story

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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd trades at ₹16.9, in a confirmed uptrend and 10 weeks into that stage. That is −3.5% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 38% of a 52-week range of ₹14 to ₹22. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (6 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 10 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹16.9 it trades −3.5% versus its 200-day average and sits at 38% of its 52-week range (₹14–₹22).

Jul 26: ₹16.9 Weekly closing price (₹) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

trailing 13-week return vs the NIFTY 500
Mar 16Jul 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +263% 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 (6 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-19) — 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 35th percentile of its own range.

02 · Valuation

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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd trades at 13.9× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 35% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 17.5×, 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 13.9× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 35% of the time, against a long-run median of 17.5× 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.

not derivable — 3-year earnings growth unavailable

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −44.5% against a −26.2% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +23.6%/yr price move, ~+37.3%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−13.7 pp from the multiple (compressing); over 10y, of the +11.2%/yr price move, ~+9.3%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+1.9 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.

→ 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.

03 · Stage: Mixed

Stage: Mixed 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).

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE slipping at 6.6% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 12 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Three growth curves, twelve quarters Year-on-year growth of trailing-twelve-month revenue (left axis), profit and EPS (right axis — they swing far wider), % at each quarter-end. Base-effect spikes shown pinned (▲). A missing point means that reading is not held for the quarter.

04 · 4-Factor Sector Score

4-Factor Sector Score

43.1/100 — rank 14 of 20 in Power - Generation/Distribution · 77% evidence confidence

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd scores 43.1 out of 100 against the 20 companies it is compared with in Power - Generation/Distribution, ranking 14. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 11.2 + 11.8 + 11 + 9.1 = 43.1. 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.

05 · Revenue

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

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +8.6% growth against the decade's 3.1% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +8.8% over the last 4 quarters against −8.1%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit −13.7% vs −26.2%/yr — accelerating.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 43.0% this quarter (+5.0 pp YoY).

06 · Operating margin

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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd's operating margin is 43.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +5.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0% to 71.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd's operating margin is 43.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +5.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0% to 71.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 43.0%, +5.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0%–71.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +4.8 pp year on year while gross margin went +6.2 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

07 · Net profit

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

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd earned ₹469 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +68.7% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹451 Cr. That is 26.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹278 Cr. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +12.2% 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 −34.3% vs revenue +8.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.

→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 216% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.

08 · Cash flow — the router

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 216% of Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹1,301 Cr of operating cash against ₹451 Cr of profit. After ₹85.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹1,216 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹1,301 Cr against reported profit of ₹451 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹1,216 Cr after ₹85.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 216% of profit.

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

FY26: CFO ₹1,301 Cr vs profit ₹451 Cr Operating cash flow and net profit by fiscal year, ₹ Cr; the line is free cash flow (CFO minus capital spending). 11-year window, annual resolution. FY20 reflects an acquisition year — point shown clipped.

Why conversion sits at 216%: the cash cycle tightened 15 days between FY21 and FY26 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner.

Router verdict: no single sink dominates — the next section checks both the working-capital cycle and the capital spending.

→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: a 72-day cycle and ₹161 Cr of building.

09 · Where the cash goes

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).

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 72 days in FY26, down from 87 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹161 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹5,563 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹15.2 Cr, so roughly ₹1,097 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 72 days, inventory at 49 days — roughly 1.6 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 72 days, tighter than FY21's 87.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 49 days to sell; customers pay about 72 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 28 days — netting out to the 72-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹5,563 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹15.2 Cr — so the 72-day loop keeps roughly ₹1,097 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹161 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹1,408 Cr of depreciation — spending at or below maintenance level. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹277 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

FY26: capex ₹85.0 Cr, work-in-progress ₹277 Cr Capital spending per fiscal year, ₹ Cr (bars); capital work-in-progress, ₹ Cr (line). Quarterly capital-spending history is not held for India — annual is the honest resolution.

The synthesis: neither the cycle nor the build-out is hoarding the cash — the machine is reasonably clean.

→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROCE is 7% and the ROIC − WACC spread is −7.9 pp.

10 · Return on capital

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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd earns a ROCE of 7% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 2% in FY20. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −7.9 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 8.1% net margin on 0.31× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 7%, recovered from a FY20 trough of 2% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 8.1% net margin × 0.31× asset turns × 1.41× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 3.5% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 4.1% − 12.0% = a −7.9 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. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.

→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.27.

11 · Debt

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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd carries total debt of ₹3,391 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹12,732 Cr as of Jun 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.27 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.49 in FY22 to 0.27 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

12 · Ownership

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.

Domestic institutions cut 7.0 points of Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes domestic institutions to 11.2% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −0.8 points over the same window, to 6.8%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Domestic institutions: −7.0 points over 8 quarters to 11.2%; Foreign institutions: −0.8 points over 8 quarters to 6.8%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 24.0%.

🚨 Why the register moved: domestic institutions drove it (−7.0 points), alongside foreign institutions (−0.8 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.

Fiscal-year ends: promoters +0.0 pts from Mar 24 to Mar 26 Shareholding at each fiscal-year end (March quarter), % of the company. 3 year-ends held.

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

13 · 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.

Jaiprakash Power Ventures 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.

Related companies · same sector · Power - Generation/Distribution Every company is compared on the shape of its own curves, not static ratios. The Revenue, EPS and ROCE columns each draw that company's last 12 quarters as a mini line of the ACTUAL level (trailing-twelve-month revenue and EPS, and the ROCE itself) — so a line that climbs is a business getting bigger, a line that sinks is one shrinking. The colour tracks the same line: green when it is rising or steadily healthy, amber when it is rolling over from a high (still elevated but turning down), red when it is falling, grey when flat or stuck. Colour and direction always agree — a green line never points down. The ROCE curve is the return on capital (annual readings for peers, so a slightly coarser line than the quarterly one at the top of this page). The Stage column then runs the same 12-quarter trajectory classifier used at the top of the page on each company and names where it sits. What lands a company in each bucket: CONSISTENT — growth stays positive across the window and returns are healthy (ROCE ≥ 15%, or ROE ≥ 12% for lenders); IMPROVING — profit or EPS fell into real decline, bottomed a few quarters back, and has climbed back to positive and held there; TURNING AROUND — the same kind of trough but more recent, with the latest quarters just lifting off it (an early, unconfirmed turn); TOPPING OUT — growth is still positive but decelerating hard from its own peak while returns have stopped rising; DETERIORATING — two or more growth curves are shrinking (latest below zero) and staying there, not one soft quarter; MIXED — the curves genuinely disagree, or no clean majority, so no single word fits; NO READ — fewer than eight usable quarters. It is a like-for-like read of every company against its own past, not a ranking against the group.

Is Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 35th percentile of its own 10-year range — the business is moving before the market.
