Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd trades at ₹4,567, in a confirmed uptrend and 7 weeks into that stage. That is −1.2% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 44% of a 52-week range of ₹4,045 to ₹5,223. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (5 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 7 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹4,567 it trades −1.2% versus its 200-day average and sits at 44% of its 52-week range (₹4,045–₹5,223).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 1.8 years the stock moved −7% while the NIFTY 500 moved −2% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (5 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-24) — 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 16th 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd trades at 42.6× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 16% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 52.5×, measured across 1.3 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 42.6× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 16% of the time, against a long-run median of 52.5× measured over 1.3 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 +0.0% against a −10.3% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN 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.

The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 132% on reported income across 11 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — 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).

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India 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 7 quarters across 0 curves, 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.

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

4-Factor Sector Score

57.9/100 — rank 2 of 8 in Pharma - MNC bulk Drugs · 65% evidence confidence

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd scores 57.9 out of 100 against the 8 companies it is compared with in Pharma - MNC bulk Drugs, ranking 2. Acceleration candidate, not a confirmed leader: earnings are strong but sector-relative strength is -7.2% and the one-year return is -10.3%. Do not upgrade until sector-relative strength is above zero and another reported period confirms growth.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 25.2 + 18.6 + 9.4 + 4.7 = 57.9. 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd reported ₹229 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +32.4% year on year. That is the 4th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 2 years it has compounded at 25.8% a year. The last full year, FY25, came in at ₹878 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹935 Cr.

Over 2 years it has compounded at 25.8% a year. The last full year, FY25, came in at ₹878 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹935 Cr.

FY25 revenue came in at ₹878 Cr (+0.0% on the year), capping 2 years at 25.8% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹229 Cr, +32.4% year on year — the 4th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +38.5% growth against the decade's 25.8% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 39.0% this quarter (+2.0 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd's operating margin is 39.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +2.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 35.0% to 39.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd's operating margin is 39.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +2.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 35.0% to 39.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 39.0%, +2.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 35.0%–39.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +1.7 pp year on year while gross margin went −2.0 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +36.0% 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd earned ₹68.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +36.0% year on year. It is the 4th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY25 profit was ₹240 Cr. The 2-year compound rate is 20.6%. That is 29.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹50.0 Cr.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd earned ₹68.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +36.0% year on year. It is the 4th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY25 profit was ₹240 Cr. The 2-year compound rate is 20.6%. That is 29.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹50.0 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹68.0 Cr, +36.0% year on year — the 4th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY25 printed ₹240 Cr (+0.0%), and the 2-year compound rate is 20.6%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +32.4% and the margin +2.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +59.1% vs revenue +38.5%. 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: 105% 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 105% of Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY25 that was ₹175 Cr of operating cash against ₹240 Cr of profit. After ₹18.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹157 Cr was left as free cash.

FY25: operating cash of ₹175 Cr against reported profit of ₹240 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹157 Cr after ₹18.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 105% 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 105%: the cash cycle tightened 125 days between FY23 and FY25 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 2.8× 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: ₹44.0 Cr of building over 2 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).

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs −16 days in FY25, down from 109 days in FY23. Capital spending ran ₹44.0 Cr over the last 2 years. At FY25 sales of ₹878 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹2.4 Cr, so roughly ₹−38.0 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY25: debtors at 12 days, inventory at 98 days — roughly 3.2 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of −16 days, tighter than FY23's 109.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 98 days to sell; customers pay about 12 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 126 days — netting out to the −16-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY25 sales of ₹878 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹2.4 Cr — so the −16-day loop keeps roughly ₹−38.0 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹44.0 Cr over the last 2 fiscal years against ₹16.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹0.0 Cr (FY25) — 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 90%.

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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd earns a ROCE of 90% in FY25. A return-on-invested-capital spread against the cost of capital is not computable from what is held here. The wiring behind it is 27.3% net margin on 1.61× asset turns.

FY25 ROCE is 90%.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY25): 27.3% net margin × 1.61× asset turns × 1.42× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 62.4% on equity. Margin is doing the heavy lifting; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The quarterly return curves and the return-on-invested-capital overlay, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 132% on reported income across 11 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.07.

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings; interest cover says how many times operating profit pays the interest bill. Low and high, respectively, is the safe corner.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd carries ₹25.0 Cr of borrowings against ₹384 Cr of equity in FY25, a debt-to-equity of 0.07. Operating profit covers the interest bill north of 100×. Over 2 years borrowings went from ₹0.0 Cr to ₹25.0 Cr. Capital spending ran ₹44.0 Cr across the last 2 of those years.

FY25: borrowings of ₹25.0 Cr against equity of ₹384 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.07. Operating profit covers the interest bill north of 100×. Over 2 years borrowings went from ₹0.0 Cr to ₹25.0 Cr while capital spending ran ₹44.0 Cr in just the last 2 — part of the build-out is riding on borrowed money.

The total-debt and debt-to-equity series, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 132% on reported income across 11 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Promoters added 10.9 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 added 10.9 points of Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 71.3% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −4.8 points over the same window, to 17.9%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Promoters: +10.9 points over 8 quarters to 71.3%; Domestic institutions: −4.8 points over 8 quarters to 17.9%; Foreign institutions: −3.4 points over 8 quarters to 2.6%.

Why the register moved: promoters drove it (+10.9 points), absorbed on the other side by domestic institutions (−4.8 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.

Sanofi Consumer Healthcare India 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.
