Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd
SUNPHARMASun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd is strength at full price. The numbers are improving — and a P/E at the 83rd percentile of its own range says the market knows.
The sharpest disagreement: the engine is strong, but at the 83rd percentile of its own range you are paying full price for it.
The price is in a confirmed uptrend (12 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 83rd percentile of its own 10-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +25.8% year on year, and 120% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the earnings grow into the multiple.
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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd trades at ₹1,933, in a confirmed uptrend and 12 weeks into that stage. That is +9.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 99% of a 52-week range of ₹1,587 to ₹1,936. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 1 straight week.
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 12 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹1,933 it trades +9.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 99% of its 52-week range (₹1,587–₹1,936).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +123% while the NIFTY 500 moved +274% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 1 straight week — 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 83rd 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd trades at 37.5× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (83rd percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 30.6×, 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 37.5× is at the pricey end of its own range (83rd percentile), against a long-run median of 30.6× 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 +5.0% against a +14.1% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +22.9%/yr price move, ~+17.4%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+5.5 pp from the multiple (expanding); over 10y, of the +9.6%/yr price move, ~+5.7%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+3.9 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 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).
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE lifting at 21.0% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on partial evidence.
Why it matters: when the curves disagree, the per-curve reads above matter more than any single verdict.
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 | +11.2% | +10.0% | +11.8% | +7.5% |
| Profit | +5.0% | +10.6% | +38.3% | +7.4% |
| EPS | +5.0% | +10.6% | +31.6% | +9.7% |
| Share price | +14.1% | +21.7% | +22.9% | +9.6% |
→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.
4-Factor Sector Score
43.5/100 — rank 26 of 43 in Pharma - Formulators · 93% evidence confidence
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd scores 43.5 out of 100 against the 43 companies it is compared with in Pharma - Formulators, ranking 26. 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: 13.2 + 17.3 + 3.8 + 9.2 = 43.5. 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd reported ₹14,612 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +12.8% year on year. That is the 12th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 7.5% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹58,462 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹58,462 Cr.

Over 10 years it has compounded at 7.5% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹58,462 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹58,462 Cr.
FY26 revenue came in at ₹58,462 Cr (+11.2% on the year), capping 10 years at 7.5% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹14,612 Cr, +12.8% year on year — the 12th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +11.2% growth against the decade's 7.5% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +11.2% over the last 4 quarters against +9.8%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising; TTM profit +5.0% vs +9.4%/yr — rolling over.
→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 27.0% 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd's operating margin is 27.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, −2.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 21.0% to 44.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd's operating margin is 27.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, −2.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 21.0% to 44.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.
The latest quarter's operating margin is 27.0%, −2.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 21.0%–44.0%.
🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −1.6 pp year on year while gross margin went +1.2 pp — the loss came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.
→ Margins slipped — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +25.8% 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd earned ₹2,710 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +25.8% year on year. It is the 3rd consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹11,509 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 7.4%. That is 18.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹2,154 Cr.

The 10-year compound rate is 7.4%. That is 18.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹2,154 Cr.
Mar 26 profit was ₹2,710 Cr, +25.8% year on year — the 3rd consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹11,509 Cr (+5.0%), and the 10-year compound rate is 7.4%.
Why profit moved: revenue contributed +12.8% and the margin −2.0 pp — the quarter was revenue-led despite a thinner margin.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +6.2% vs revenue +11.2%. 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: 120% 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 120% of Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹12,419 Cr of operating cash against ₹11,509 Cr of profit. After ₹9,582 Cr of capital spending, ₹2,837 Cr was left as free cash.
FY26: operating cash of ₹12,419 Cr against reported profit of ₹11,509 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹2,837 Cr after ₹9,582 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 120% 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 120%: the cash cycle tightened 82 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 1.8× 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: ₹14,906 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).
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 228 days in FY26, down from 310 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹14,906 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹58,462 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹160 Cr, so roughly ₹36,519 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.
FY26: debtors at 97 days, inventory at 363 days — roughly 11.9 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 228 days, tighter than FY21's 310.
The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 363 days to sell; customers pay about 97 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 232 days — netting out to the 228-day cycle.
In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹58,462 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹160 Cr — so the 228-day loop keeps roughly ₹36,519 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.
On the investment side: capital spending of ₹14,906 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹8,070 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹3,052 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 21% and the ROIC − WACC spread is +6.8 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd earns a ROCE of 21% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 10% in FY18. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +6.8 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 19.7% net margin on 0.54× asset turns.
FY26 ROCE is 21%, recovered from a FY18 trough of 10% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.
Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 19.7% net margin × 0.54× asset turns × 1.30× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 13.8% 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: 18.8% − 12.0% = a +6.8 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 0.06.
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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd carries total debt of ₹4,627 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹83,880 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.06 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.03 in FY22 to 0.06 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.
Mar 26: total debt of ₹4,627 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹83,880 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.06. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.03 (FY22) to 0.06 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.
→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Domestic institutions added 2.9 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.
Domestic institutions added 2.9 points of Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes domestic institutions to 22.1% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −2.7 points over the same window, to 14.5%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Domestic institutions: +2.9 points over 8 quarters to 22.1%; Foreign institutions: −2.7 points over 8 quarters to 14.5%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 54.5%.
Why the register moved: rotation — foreign institutions −2.7 points against domestic institutions +2.9 points over 8 quarters, with promoters holding steady — one class of institutions handing the register to the other, not a verdict change by the people closest to the numbers.
→ 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.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd: the Z-score reads 12.14. A Z-score above roughly 3 reads as safe and below roughly 1.8 as the distress zone, so this sits well clear of distress. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure.
Why it matters: a Z-score of 12.14 sits well clear of the distress zone — the balance sheet is not the risk here.
The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score reads 12.14.
