Participation is spreading downward — the mid and small companies added more this month than the large ones did.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 19 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Uniparts India Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 95.6% evidence confidence.
Tirupati Forge Ltd has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Bharat Forge Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies compared here, at ₹16,812 crore. CIE Automotive India Ltd is next at ₹9,998 crore. Tirupati Forge Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 41.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. 18 of 19 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Bharat Forge Ltd is the scale leader at ₹16,812 crore, 68.2% ahead of CIE Automotive India Ltd. Tirupati Forge Ltd's growth is 41.3% from a ₹162 crore base, with 14 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderBharat Forge Ltd · ₹16,812 crore
Gap68.2% versus #2 · CIE Automotive India Ltd
Persistence4/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage18/19 companies · 294 observations

Investor read: Bharat Forge Ltd is the scale benchmark; Tirupati Forge Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Bharat Forge Ltd's growth falls below Tirupati Forge Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Uniparts India Ltd has the highest Margin change at +10 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. Its OPM series carries 7 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Amic Forging Ltd leads opm at 33%; Uniparts India Ltd leads margin change at +10 percentage points.

LeaderAmic Forging Ltd · 33%
Gap6.5% versus #2 · Uni Abex Alloy Products Ltd
Persistence3/4 recent comparable periods
Coverage19/19 companies · 334 observations

Investor read: Amic Forging Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

LeaderBharat Forge Ltd · ₹1,089 crore
Gap20.6% versus #2 · CIE Automotive India Ltd
Persistence5/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage18/19 companies · 294 observations

Investor read: Bharat Forge Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Capacity Spending & Returns On It

Sundaram Clayton Ltd has the highest CAPEX among the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies compared here, at ₹155 crore. Happy Forgings Ltd is next at ₹44 crore. The same company also holds the highest CAPEX intensity, at 27.5%. 4 of 19 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Sundaram Clayton Ltd reports ₹155 crore of CAPEX; Sundaram Clayton Ltd has the highest covered intensity at 27.5%. Coverage is only 4 of 19 companies and 10 reported observations, so this is partial evidence—not a complete sector rank.

LeaderSundaram Clayton Ltd · ₹155 crore
Gap252.3% versus #2 · Happy Forgings Ltd
Persistence3/3 recent comparable periods
Coverage4/19 companies · 10 observations

Investor read: Use the CAPEX rank as a diligence queue. Verify commissioning, utilization, cash conversion and post-investment ROCE before treating spend as value creation.

This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.

CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

Withheld from this chart: Bharat Forge Ltd (BHARATFORG) — its two data sources disagree by up to 16% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd (RKFORGE) — its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 13 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Capacity base is net fixed assets plus capital work in progress, straight off the reported balance sheet. It is not cash spent, so it answers a narrower question than CAPEX — but it is reported for companies whose cash-flow CAPEX is not published, which is why it leads here. Missing years remain blank; annual values are never relabelled as quarters.

Debt Load & Balance-Sheet Headroom

Steelcast Ltd has the lowest Gross debt among the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies compared here, at ₹0 crore. Kennametal India Ltd is next at ₹2 crore. CIE Automotive India Ltd has the lowest Net debt at ₹1,211 crore net cash, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: CIE Automotive India Ltd has the clearest covered balance-sheet capacity with ₹1,211 crore net cash and gross debt of ₹513 crore. Absolute debt alone does not identify the strongest balance sheet because company scale differs; net debt and debt-to-equity carry more information.

LeaderSteelcast Ltd · ₹0 crore
Gap100% versus #2 · Kennametal India Ltd
Persistence6/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage19/19 companies · 278 observations

Investor read: Prioritize net-cash capacity and leverage relative to operating scale, not the smallest absolute rupee debt.

This conclusion weakens if: Net debt rises faster than revenue and profit for two consecutive reported periods.

Gross debt shows contractual borrowings. Net debt subtracts reported cash; a negative value means net cash. Lower debt can create capacity, but should be read against the scale and capital intensity of the business.

Return On Capital Employed

Steelcast Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies compared here, at 32.3%. Kennametal India Ltd is next at 24.6%. Uniparts India Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +11 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 19 of 19 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Steelcast Ltd leads ROCE at 32.3%, 7.7 percentage points above Kennametal India Ltd. Uniparts India Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +11 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderSteelcast Ltd · 32.3%
Gap31.3% versus #2 · Kennametal India Ltd
Persistence2/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage19/19 companies · 217 observations

Investor read: Steelcast Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Withheld from this chart: Bharat Forge Ltd (BHARATFORG) — its two data sources disagree by up to 16% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd (RKFORGE) — its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 13 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Uniparts India Ltd has the lowest Guarded PEG among the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies compared here, at 0.38×. Steelcast Ltd is next at 0.62×. Sundaram Clayton Ltd has the lowest P/E at 11.5×, so level and change sit with different companies. 8 of 19 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Uniparts India Ltd has the lowest comparable Guarded PEG at 0.38×, 38.7% below Steelcast Ltd. Only 8 of 19 companies pass the guard, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderUniparts India Ltd · 0.38×
Gap38.7% versus #2 · Steelcast Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage8/19 companies · 53 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data sources reconciled. A missing PEG is more honest than a low-base fiction.

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/bv signal.

EV/EBITDA includes debt in enterprise value and is useful across different capital structures. P/BV prices the company against its own book. Both are market multiples on reported figures, not intrinsic-value estimates and not forecasts.

Market action

Bharat Forge Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Castings, Forgings & Fastners at +80.1%. Tirupati Forge Ltd leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +64.4%. 14 of 19 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-07-17.

Every price line is indexed to 100 over the chosen window. Mansfield relative strength compares a price ratio with its own 52-week average; zero separates leadership from lagging.
Price and relative strength

Price is rebased to 100 inside the selected window. Pair ratio rebases each selected company against one chosen denominator.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Castings, Forgings & Fastners comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 19 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 6 draw at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check. 2 have second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 6 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; they are marked unverified wherever those figures appear.
  • 2 companies are missing from the second-feed metrics by decision, not by absence: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Read those rows as narrower evidence, never as a weaker business.
10 · the complete set

Which companies are included?

All 19 companies in the canonical Castings, Forgings & Fastners membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.

AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.

How each company's sources stand: 6 of 19 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed that could not be cross-checked against the primary source, because the two do not share enough reported history to compare. Those figures are marked unverified wherever they appear. 2 of 19 companies have a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: Bharat Forge Ltd (BHARATFORG) — its two data sources disagree by up to 16% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd (RKFORGE) — its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 13 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.
Evidence and freshness

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each.

A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from. Every company's standing is listed in the register above.

Castings, Forgings & Fastners company comparison FAQs

These 18 answers restate the Castings, Forgings & Fastners comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 19 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-24. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

What is the Nifty Castings, Forgings & Fastners index?

The Nifty Castings, Forgings & Fastners index tracks India's listed Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 19 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Castings, Forgings & Fastners sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best Castings, Forgings & Fastners stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Uniparts India Ltd places first among 19 listed Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies, followed by Gala Precision Engineering Ltd. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Jun 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.

How many Castings, Forgings & Fastners stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 19 listed Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Jun 2026.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company is the biggest?

Bharat Forge Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹16,812 crore, ahead of CIE Automotive India Ltd at ₹9,998 crore. That covers 18 of 19 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company is growing fastest?

Tirupati Forge Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 41.3% year on year, across 18 of 19 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company has the best profit margins?

Amic Forging Ltd has the highest operating margin at 33%, from 19 of 19 comparable companies. Uniparts India Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +10 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company makes the most profit?

Bharat Forge Ltd earns the most, at ₹1,089 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 18 of 19 comparable companies. Uni Abex Alloy Products Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company earns the highest return on capital?

Steelcast Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 32.3%, across 19 of 19 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners stock is the cheapest?

On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Uniparts India Ltd screens cheapest at 0.38×. Only 8 of 19 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company has the strongest balance sheet?

Steelcast Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹0 crore, from 19 of 19 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners stock has the strongest price momentum?

Tirupati Forge Ltd has the strongest relative strength against NIFTY 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which Castings, Forgings & Fastners company scores highest for research priority?

Uniparts India Ltd scores 82.8 out of 100 with 95.6% evidence confidence, from 30.8 points on growth and earnings, 19.2 on capital efficiency, 15.6 on valuation and 17.2 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 19 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals and 10 fiscal years of capital allocation, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

The 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies on this page carry ₹2,21,727 crore of combined market value. Bharat Forge Ltd is the largest at ₹1,02,866 crore, about 46% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-07-29.

What is the Castings, Forgings & Fastners sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 19 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies on this page is 36.7×, measured on the 19 that report a comparable figure.

How is the Castings, Forgings & Fastners sector performing?

14 of the 19 covered Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. A 52-week sector-versus-index comparison is not available from the current market series for this sector, so it is not quoted. Readings are as of 2026-07-29.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
