Shaily Engineering Plastics 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd trades at ₹2,758, in a confirmed uptrend and 12 weeks into that stage. That is +16.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 69% of a 52-week range of ₹1,885 to ₹3,143. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (2 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 12 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹2,758 it trades +16.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 69% of its 52-week range (₹1,885–₹3,143).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +2,568% while the NIFTY 500 moved +274% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (2 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-07-03) — 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 64th 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd trades at 80.4× P/E, mid-range by its own standards (64th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 67.3×, measured across 4.1 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 80.4× is mid-range by its own standards (64th percentile), against a long-run median of 67.3× measured over 4.1 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 +82.5% against a +68.1% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +112.0%/yr price move, ~+69.1%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+42.9 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 unremarkable 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: Consistent 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).

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd reads as consistent on its fundamental arc. Consistent — revenue, profit and EPS growth have stayed positive through the window, with ROCE at 29.0% and holding. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on partial evidence.

Why it matters: steady curves with healthy returns are the compounding setup — the risk is the price, not the business.

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.

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

4-Factor Sector Score

62.2/100 — rank 2 of 7 in Plastics - Plastic & Plastic Products · 97% evidence confidence

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd scores 62.2 out of 100 against the 7 companies it is compared with in Plastics - Plastic & Plastic Products, ranking 2. Strong business, demanding price: keep it on the quality list, but require either earnings upgrades or valuation compression.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 32.6 + 17.9 + 1 + 10.7 = 62.2. 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd reported ₹237 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +8.7% year on year. That is the 10th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 4 years it has compounded at 14.9% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹991 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹991 Cr.

Over 4 years it has compounded at 14.9% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹991 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹991 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹991 Cr (+25.9% on the year), capping 4 years at 14.9% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹237 Cr, +8.7% year on year — the 10th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +26.7% growth against the decade's 14.9% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +25.9% over the last 4 quarters against +24.0%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising; TTM profit +81.7% vs +70.7%/yr — accelerating.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 28.0% this quarter (+3.0 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd's operating margin is 28.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +3.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 15.0% to 28.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd's operating margin is 28.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +3.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 15.0% to 28.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 28.0%, +3.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 15.0%–28.0%, and FY26's 28.0% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +2.7 pp year on year while gross margin went +7.4 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +37.9% 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd earned ₹40.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +37.9% year on year. It is the 12th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹170 Cr. The 4-year compound rate is 48.5%. That is 16.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹29.0 Cr.

The 4-year compound rate is 48.5%. That is 16.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹29.0 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹40.0 Cr, +37.9% year on year — the 12th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹170 Cr (+82.8%), and the 4-year compound rate is 48.5%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +8.7% and the margin +3.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +89.7% vs revenue +26.7%. 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: 134% 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 134% of Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹226 Cr of operating cash against ₹170 Cr of profit. After ₹179 Cr of capital spending, ₹47.0 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹226 Cr against reported profit of ₹170 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹47.0 Cr after ₹179 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 134% 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 134%: the cash cycle stretched 43 days between FY22 and FY26 — more of each rupee of profit waits inside the cycle before arriving.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 2.7× 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: ₹341 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).

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 135 days in FY26, up from 92 days in FY22. Capital spending ran ₹341 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹991 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹2.7 Cr, so roughly ₹367 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 79 days, inventory at 129 days — roughly 4.2 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 135 days, looser than FY22's 92.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 129 days to sell; customers pay about 79 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 74 days — netting out to the 135-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹991 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹2.7 Cr — so the 135-day loop keeps roughly ₹367 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹341 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹127 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹29.0 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 29% and the ROIC − WACC spread is +9.1 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd earns a ROCE of 29% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 11% in FY23. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +9.1 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 17.2% net margin on 0.86× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 29%, recovered from a FY23 trough of 11% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 17.2% net margin × 0.86× asset turns × 1.60× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 23.7% 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: 21.1% − 12.0% = a +9.1 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. A spread this wide means every rupee reinvested creates more than a rupee of value — the engine compounds.

→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.25.

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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd carries total debt of ₹177 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹717 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.25 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.48 in FY22 to 0.25 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

Mar 26: total debt of ₹177 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹717 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.25. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.48 (FY22) to 0.25 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Foreign institutions added 16.1 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 16.1 points of Shaily Engineering Plastics Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes foreign institutions to 18.2% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +5.3 points over the same window, to 14.8%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Foreign institutions: +16.1 points over 8 quarters to 18.2%; Domestic institutions: +5.3 points over 8 quarters to 14.8%; Promoters: −2.7 points over 8 quarters to 41.1%.

Why the register moved: foreign institutions drove it (+16.1 points), alongside domestic institutions (+5.3 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.

Shaily Engineering Plastics 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.
