Ritco Logistics Ltd
RITCORitco Logistics 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: Domestic institutions moved +2.7 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 (3 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 76th percentile of its own 3-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read deteriorating — profit −65.1% year on year, and −32% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the register turns back in the story’s favour.
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.
Ritco Logistics Ltd trades at ₹273, in a confirmed uptrend and 3 weeks into that stage. That is +8.7% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 93% of a 52-week range of ₹177 to ₹281. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (4 weeks and counting).
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 3 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹273 it trades +8.7% versus its 200-day average and sits at 93% of its 52-week range (₹177–₹281).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 7.4 years the stock moved +275% while the NIFTY 500 moved +163% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (4 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-25) — 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 76th 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.
Ritco Logistics Ltd trades at 23.6× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (76th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 20.2×, measured across 3.2 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 23.6× is at the pricey end of its own range (76th percentile), against a long-run median of 20.2× measured over 3.2 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 −15.6% against a −11.7% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +0.6%/yr price move, ~+8.0%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−7.4 pp from the multiple (compressing). 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.
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: 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).
Ritco Logistics Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE slipping at 10.0% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 10 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.
Why it matters: when the curves disagree, the per-curve reads above matter more than any single verdict.
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.
| 1yr | 3yr | 5yr | 10yr | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | +26.3% | +26.1% | — | — |
| Profit | −22.0% | +10.1% | — | — |
| EPS | −15.6% | +8.0% | — | — |
| Share price | −11.7% | +0.6% | +54.5% | — |
→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.
4-Factor Sector Score
43.4/100 — rank 13 of 18 in Logistics · 83% evidence confidence
Ritco Logistics Ltd scores 43.4 out of 100 against the 18 companies it is compared with in Logistics, ranking 13. Price leads the evidence: RS versus the benchmark is 7.5%, but earnings trajectory is weak. Wait for revenue and profit confirmation.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 12.1 + 7.7 + 8.4 + 15.2 = 43.4. 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.
Ritco Logistics Ltd reported ₹392 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +13.4% year on year. That is the 10th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 3 years it has compounded at 26.1% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹1,499 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,499 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹1,499 Cr (+26.3% on the year), capping 3 years at 26.1% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹392 Cr, +13.4% year on year — the 10th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +27.1% growth against the decade's 26.1% — the current year is running in line with its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +26.0% over the last 4 quarters against +26.7%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising; TTM profit −21.4% vs −1.1%/yr — rolling over.
→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 5.1% this quarter (−2.3 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.
Ritco Logistics Ltd's operating margin is 5.1% in the Mar 26 quarter, −2.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 7.0% to 8.0%. The current quarter is running below every full year in that window.
Ritco Logistics Ltd's operating margin is 5.1% in the Mar 26 quarter, −2.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 7.0% to 8.0%. The current quarter is running below every full year in that window.
The latest quarter's operating margin is 5.1%, −2.3 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 7.0%–8.0%.
🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −2.3 pp year on year while gross margin went −1.7 pp — the loss came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.
→ Margins slipped — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit −65.1% 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.
Ritco Logistics Ltd earned ₹4.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, −65.1% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹32.0 Cr. The 3-year compound rate is 10.1%. That is 1.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹11.5 Cr.
Ritco Logistics Ltd earned ₹4.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, −65.1% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹32.0 Cr. The 3-year compound rate is 10.1%. That is 1.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹11.5 Cr.
Mar 26 profit was ₹4.0 Cr, −65.1% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹32.0 Cr (−22.0%), and the 3-year compound rate is 10.1%.
🚨 Why profit moved: revenue contributed +13.4% and the margin −2.3 pp — the quarter was revenue-led despite a thinner margin.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −19.1% vs revenue +27.1%. 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: −32% 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 −32% of Ritco Logistics Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹−33.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹32.0 Cr of profit. After ₹93.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹−126 Cr was left as free cash.
FY26: operating cash of ₹−33.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹32.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−126 Cr after ₹93.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is −32% 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 −32%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY23 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 4.0× 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: ₹230 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).
Ritco Logistics Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 121 days in FY26, up from 118 days in FY23. Capital spending ran ₹230 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹1,499 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹4.1 Cr, so roughly ₹497 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.
FY26: debtors at 121 days, inventory at 0 days — roughly 0.0 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 121 days, looser than FY23's 118.
In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹1,499 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹4.1 Cr — so the 121-day loop keeps roughly ₹497 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.
On the investment side: capital spending of ₹230 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹58.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹0.0 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 10% and the ROIC − WACC spread is −6.0 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
Ritco Logistics Ltd earns a ROCE of 10% in FY26. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −6.0 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 2.1% net margin on 1.74× asset turns.
FY26 ROCE is 10%.
🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 2.1% net margin × 1.74× asset turns × 2.36× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 8.6% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.
The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 6.0% − 12.0% = a −6.0 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 1.30.
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
Ritco Logistics Ltd carries total debt of ₹474 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹358 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 1.32. On the annual view that ratio went from 1.39 in FY22 to 1.32 in FY26. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.
Mar 26: total debt of ₹474 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹358 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 1.32. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 1.39 (FY22) to 1.32 (FY26). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.
→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Promoters cut 10.4 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.
Promoters cut 10.4 points of Ritco Logistics Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 62.7% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +2.7 points over the same window, to 2.7%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Promoters: −10.4 points over 8 quarters to 62.7%; Domestic institutions: +2.7 points over 8 quarters to 2.7%; Foreign institutions: −0.4 points over 8 quarters to 0.0%.
🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−10.4 points), absorbed on the other side by domestic institutions (+2.7 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.
Ritco Logistics 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.

Does Ritco Logistics Ltd have too much debt?
It carries real leverage — Ritco Logistics Ltd's debt-to-equity is 1.30, and operating profit covers the interest bill 4×. FY26 borrowings were ₹474 Cr against equity of ₹365 Cr. Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind — as of 24 July 2026.
What is Ritco Logistics Ltd's capex?
Ritco Logistics Ltd spent ₹230 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 ₹93.0 Cr, with ₹0.0 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 24 July 2026.
What is Ritco Logistics Ltd's cash flow?
Ritco Logistics Ltd generated ₹−33.0 Cr of operating cash flow in FY26 and ₹−126 Cr of free cash flow after ₹93.0 Cr of capital spending. Reported profit that year was ₹32.0 Cr, so operating cash ran behind profit. Cash-flow resolution for India is annual. — as of 24 July 2026.
Is Ritco Logistics Ltd's profit real cash?
Not fully — over the last 3 fiscal years, −32% of Ritco Logistics Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash. In FY26, operating cash was ₹−33.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹32.0 Cr. The cash then goes mostly into building capacity. Cash-flow resolution is annual — as of 24 July 2026.

Ritco Logistics Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 7.0%, against a 4-year band of 7.0%–8.0%: the low end of its own band, which is where recoveries start when they come. The latest quarter ran 5.1%. 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 Ritco Logistics Ltd story?
The sharpest disagreement: Domestic institutions moved +2.7 points over 8 quarters while the operating story went the other way — someone close to the numbers is not convinced. 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 Ritco Logistics Ltd a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: Ritco Logistics 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 register turns back in the story’s favour. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 24 July 2026.
