Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.

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 8 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.

The central tension: current leadership is concentrated, so durability matters more than rank.

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%
Atul Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 100% evidence confidence.
Sudarshan Colorants India Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.

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

Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies compared here, at ₹9,787 crore. Atul Ltd is next at ₹6,644 crore. The same company also holds the highest Revenue growth, at the 100% top of the scoring scale. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the scale leader at ₹9,787 crore, 47.3% ahead of Atul Ltd. Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd's growth is stored at the ≥100% scoring cap; the uncapped TTM change is 192.6% from a ₹9,787 crore base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderSudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd · ₹9,787 crore
Gap47.3% versus #2 · Atul Ltd
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage10/10 companies · 150 observations

Investor read: Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the scale benchmark; Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd's growth falls below Sudarshan Chemical Industries 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.

LeaderAtul Ltd · 21%
Gap23.5% versus #2 · Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd
Persistence5/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage10/10 companies · 191 observations

Investor read: Atul 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.

What the numbers say: Kiri Industries Ltd leads with ₹5,567 crore of TTM profit, 586.4% above Atul Ltd.

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

No company in this Dyes & Pigments comparison reports capital expenditure on a comparable basis, so there is nothing to rank here — 0 of 10 companies have a usable current reading. The section is shown rather than removed so an unavailable metric is not mistaken for one that was quietly left out. Filings were read through Jun 2026.

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 comparison: Kiri Industries Ltd (KIRIINDUS) — its two data sources disagree by up to 331% on reported income across 14 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.

Debt Load & Balance-Sheet Headroom

Indokem Ltd has the lowest Gross debt among the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies compared here, at ₹23 crore. Atul Ltd has the lowest Net debt at ₹1,557 crore net cash, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Dec 2025.

What the numbers say: Atul Ltd has the clearest covered balance-sheet capacity with ₹1,557 crore net cash and gross debt of ₹183 crore. Absolute debt alone does not identify the strongest balance sheet because company scale differs; net debt and debt-to-equity carry more information.

LeaderIndokem Ltd · ₹23 crore
Gap0% versus #2 · Sudarshan Colorants India Ltd
PersistenceNot enough history
Coverage10/10 companies · 159 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

Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies compared here, at 18.8%. Atul Ltd is next at 14.9%. Indokem Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +11 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd leads ROCE at 18.8%, 3.9 percentage points above Atul Ltd. Indokem 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.

LeaderVidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd · 18.8%
Gap26.2% versus #2 · Atul Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage10/10 companies · 120 observations

Investor read: Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients 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: Kiri Industries Ltd (KIRIINDUS) — its two data sources disagree by up to 331% on reported income across 14 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

Atul Ltd has the lowest Guarded PEG among the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies compared here, at 0.69×. Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is next at 1.42×. Ultramarine & Pigments Ltd has the lowest P/E at 14×, so level and change sit with different companies. 2 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Atul Ltd has the lowest comparable Guarded PEG at 0.69×, 51.4% below Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd. Only 2 of 10 companies pass the guard, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderAtul Ltd · 0.69×
Gap51.4% versus #2 · Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage2/10 companies · 8 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.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Dyes & Pigments comparison names 8 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 10 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 6 draw at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check.

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.
  • 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
  • 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.
  • 1 company is 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.
  • Thin comparisons: Capital expenditure, Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.
10 · the complete set

Which companies are included?

All 10 companies in the canonical Dyes & Pigments membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. 1 of these is no longer being priced, so its price and relative strength are frozen at the last traded week shown.

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 10 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. 1 of 10 companies has a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: Kiri Industries Ltd (KIRIINDUS) — its two data sources disagree by up to 331% on reported income across 14 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 10 Dyes & Pigments companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-24. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Derived metricsGrowth, changes, CAPEX intensity, net debt, guarded PEG and P/BV÷ROE are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.

Source standing2 cross-checked · 7 unverified · 1 withheld, of 10 graded companies.

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.

Questions investors ask · short, speakable answers

Dyes & Pigments company comparison FAQs

These 18 answers restate the Dyes & Pigments comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 10 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 Dyes & Pigments index?

The Nifty Dyes & Pigments index tracks India's listed Dyes & Pigments companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 10 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Dyes & Pigments sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best Dyes & Pigments stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Atul Ltd places first among 10 listed Dyes & Pigments companies, followed by Bhageria Industries 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 Dyes & Pigments stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 10 listed Dyes & Pigments 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 Dyes & Pigments company is the biggest?

Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹9,787 crore, ahead of Atul Ltd at ₹6,644 crore. That covers 10 of 10 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which Dyes & Pigments company is growing fastest?

Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 100% year on year, across 10 of 10 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 Dyes & Pigments company has the best profit margins?

Atul Ltd has the highest operating margin at 21%, from 10 of 10 comparable companies. Atul Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +5 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Dyes & Pigments company makes the most profit?

Kiri Industries Ltd earns the most, at ₹5,567 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 10 of 10 comparable companies. Bodal Chemicals Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Dyes & Pigments company earns the highest return on capital?

Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 18.8%, across 10 of 10 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 Dyes & Pigments stock is the cheapest?

On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Atul Ltd screens cheapest at 0.69×. Only 2 of 10 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 Dyes & Pigments company has the strongest balance sheet?

Indokem Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹23 crore, from 10 of 10 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 Dyes & Pigments stock has the strongest price momentum?

Sadhana Nitro Chem 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 Dyes & Pigments company scores highest for research priority?

Atul Ltd scores 65.5 out of 100 with 100% evidence confidence, from 28 points on growth and earnings, 18.1 on capital efficiency, 14 on valuation and 5.4 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 Dyes & Pigments companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 10 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.

What is the total market cap of the Dyes & Pigments sector?

The 10 Dyes & Pigments companies on this page carry ₹37,351 crore of combined market value. Atul Ltd is the largest at ₹18,865 crore, about 51% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-07-29.

What is the Dyes & Pigments sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies on this page is 23.7×, measured on the 8 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-07-29.

How is the Dyes & Pigments sector performing?

4 of the 10 covered Dyes & Pigments 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.
