Nitin Spinners 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd trades at ₹550, in a confirmed uptrend and 18 weeks into that stage. That is +27.8% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 93% of a 52-week range of ₹305 to ₹569. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 30 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 18 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹550 it trades +27.8% versus its 200-day average and sits at 93% of its 52-week range (₹305–₹569).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.4 years the stock moved +966% while the NIFTY 500 moved +280% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 30 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 95th 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd trades at 17.0× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (95th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 9.0×, 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 17.0× is at the pricey end of its own range (95th percentile), against a long-run median of 9.0× 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 +1.2% against a +41.6% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +25.0%/yr price move, ~+21.0%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+4.0 pp from the multiple (expanding); over 10y, of the +22.1%/yr price move, ~+12.5%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+9.6 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.

→ 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: 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).

Nitin Spinners Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE holding at 14.6% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on full evidence.

Why it matters: when the curves disagree, the per-curve reads above matter more than any single verdict.

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

4-Factor Sector Score

52.3/100 — rank 6 of 13 in Textiles - Spinning · 96% evidence confidence

Nitin Spinners Ltd scores 52.3 out of 100 against the 13 companies it is compared with in Textiles - Spinning, ranking 6. Price leads the evidence: RS versus the benchmark is 40.8%, but earnings trajectory is weak. Wait for revenue and profit confirmation.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 12.7 + 14 + 8.3 + 17.3 = 52.3. 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd reported ₹860 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +2.3% year on year. Over 10 years it has compounded at 15.4% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹3,214 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹3,214 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹3,214 Cr (−2.6% on the year), capping 10 years at 15.4% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹860 Cr, +2.3% year on year.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged −2.8% growth against the decade's 15.4% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew −2.8% over the last 4 quarters against +5.2%/yr over the last 8 — rolling over; TTM profit +1.1% vs +15.8%/yr — rolling over.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 15.0% this quarter (+1.0 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd's operating margin is 15.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +1.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 12.0% to 24.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 15.0%, +1.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 12.0%–24.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +0.9 pp year on year while gross margin went +1.0 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +23.9% 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd earned ₹57.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +23.9% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹178 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 15.0%. That is 6.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹46.0 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹57.0 Cr, +23.9% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹178 Cr (+1.7%), and the 10-year compound rate is 15.0%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +2.3% and the margin +1.0 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +0.7% vs revenue −2.8%. 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: 182% 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 182% of Nitin Spinners Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹411 Cr of operating cash against ₹178 Cr of profit. After ₹155 Cr of capital spending, ₹256 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹411 Cr against reported profit of ₹178 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹256 Cr after ₹155 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 182% 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 182%: the cash cycle tightened 12 days between FY21 and FY26 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 1.6× 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: ₹654 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).

Nitin Spinners Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 141 days in FY26, down from 153 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹654 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹3,214 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹8.8 Cr, so roughly ₹1,242 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 49 days, inventory at 110 days — roughly 3.6 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 141 days, tighter than FY21's 153.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 110 days to sell; customers pay about 49 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 18 days — netting out to the 141-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹3,214 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹8.8 Cr — so the 141-day loop keeps roughly ₹1,242 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹654 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹414 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹102 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% and the ROIC − WACC spread is −2.7 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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd earns a ROCE of 12% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 6% in FY20. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −2.7 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 5.5% net margin on 1.10× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 12%, recovered from a FY20 trough of 6% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 5.5% net margin × 1.10× asset turns × 1.98× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 12.0% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 9.3% − 12.0% = a −2.7 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 0.76.

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.

Nitin Spinners Ltd carries total debt of ₹1,124 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,471 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.76. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.79 in FY22 to 0.76 in FY26. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.

Mar 26: total debt of ₹1,124 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,471 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.76. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.79 (FY22) to 0.76 (FY26). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Foreign institutions added 1.3 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 added 1.3 points of Nitin Spinners Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes foreign institutions to 1.9% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −0.3 points over the same window, to 14.7%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Foreign institutions: +1.3 points over 8 quarters to 1.9%; Domestic institutions: −0.3 points over 8 quarters to 14.7%; Promoters: +0.2 points over 8 quarters to 56.7%.

Why the register moved: foreign institutions drove it (+1.3 points) — steady accumulation by institutions reading the same numbers this page reads.

→ 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.

Nitin Spinners 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.
