Nifty Watches Index — Constituents & Performance

The Watches companies below are the listed Indian Watches universe this page tracks — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty Watches index. Every figure is equal-weighted across those companies, so one large constituent cannot set the reading. Each number carries its own as-of date.

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 4 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.

Sector relative strength · before individual stocks

Is Watches outperforming NIFTY 500?

The 52-week comparison of Watches against NIFTY 500 is not available from the current market series. 3 of 4 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is broad. Timex Group India Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +26.5%. Readings are as of 2026-07-19.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

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%
Timex Group India Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 94% evidence confidence.
KDDL 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

KDDL Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at ₹2,154 crore. Ethos Ltd is next at ₹1,612 crore. Foce India Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 81.2%, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: KDDL Ltd is the scale leader at ₹2,154 crore, 33.6% ahead of Ethos Ltd. Foce India Ltd's growth is 81.2% from a ₹250 crore base, with 10 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderKDDL Ltd · ₹2,154 crore
Gap33.6% versus #2 · Ethos Ltd
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage4/4 companies · 64 observations

Investor read: KDDL Ltd is the scale benchmark; Foce India Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: KDDL Ltd's growth falls below Foce India 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.

The same company also holds the highest Margin change, at +6 percentage points. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

Investor read: Timex Group India 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.

KDDL Ltd has the highest Net profit among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at ₹136 crore. Ethos Ltd is next at ₹97 crore. Timex Group India Ltd has the highest Profit growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: KDDL Ltd leads with ₹136 crore of TTM profit, 40.2% above Ethos Ltd. Timex Group India Ltd shows ≥100% on the scoring scale (141.9% uncapped) growth from a ₹75 crore profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

Investor read: KDDL 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

Ethos Ltd has the highest CAPEX among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at ₹24 crore. Foce India Ltd is next at ₹2 crore. The same company also holds the highest CAPEX intensity, at 10.2%. 2 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026. Its CAPEX series carries 5 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Ethos Ltd reports ₹24 crore of CAPEX; Ethos Ltd has the highest covered intensity at 10.2%. Coverage is only 2 of 4 companies and 15 reported observations, so this is partial evidence—not a complete sector rank.

LeaderEthos Ltd · ₹24 crore
Gap12× versus #2 · Foce India Ltd
Persistence5/5 recent comparable periods
Coverage2/4 companies · 15 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: KDDL Ltd (KDDL) — its two data sources disagree by up to 40% 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.

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

Foce India Ltd has the lowest Gross debt among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at ₹48 crore. Timex Group India Ltd is next at ₹71 crore. Ethos Ltd has the lowest Net debt at ₹340 crore net cash, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Ethos Ltd has the clearest covered balance-sheet capacity with ₹340 crore net cash and gross debt of ₹322 crore. Absolute debt alone does not identify the strongest balance sheet because company scale differs; net debt and debt-to-equity carry more information.

LeaderFoce India Ltd · ₹48 crore
Gap32.4% versus #2 · Timex Group India Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage4/4 companies · 53 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

Timex Group India Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at 82.8%. Foce India Ltd is next at 16.1%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +33.7 percentage points. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Timex Group India Ltd leads ROCE at 82.8%, 66.7 percentage points above Foce India Ltd. Timex Group India Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +33.7 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.

LeaderTimex Group India Ltd · 82.8%
Gap414.3% versus #2 · Foce India Ltd

Investor read: Timex Group India 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.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Timex Group India Ltd has the lowest Guarded PEG among the 4 Watches companies compared here, at 1.43×. Ethos Ltd is next at 5.5×. KDDL Ltd has the lowest P/E at 43.2×, so level and change sit with different companies. 2 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Timex Group India Ltd has the lowest comparable Guarded PEG at 1.43×, 74% below Ethos Ltd. Only 2 of 4 companies pass the guard, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderTimex Group India Ltd · 1.43×
Gap74% versus #2 · Ethos Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage2/4 companies · 12 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.

All 4 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 draws at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check. 1 has 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.
  • 1 company draws at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; it is marked unverified wherever that figure appears.
  • 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.

Which companies are included?

All 4 companies in the canonical Watches 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: 1 of 4 companies draws 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 4 companies has a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: KDDL Ltd (KDDL) — its two data sources disagree by up to 40% 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 4 Watches companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Mar 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.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
Source standing2 cross-checked · 1 unverified · 1 withheld, of 4 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

Watches company comparison FAQs

These 18 answers restate the Watches comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 4 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Mar 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 Watches index?

The Nifty Watches index tracks India's listed Watches companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 4 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Watches sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Mar 2026.

Which are the best Watches stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Timex Group India Ltd places first among 4 listed Watches companies, followed by Foce India Ltd. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Mar 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.

How many Watches stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 4 listed Watches 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 Mar 2026.

Which Watches company is the biggest?

KDDL Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹2,154 crore, ahead of Ethos Ltd at ₹1,612 crore. That covers 4 of 4 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which Watches company is growing fastest?

Foce India Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 81.2% year on year, across 4 of 4 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 Watches company has the best profit margins?

Timex Group India Ltd has the highest operating margin at 17%, from 4 of 4 comparable companies. Timex Group India Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +6 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Watches company makes the most profit?

KDDL Ltd earns the most, at ₹136 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 4 of 4 comparable companies. Timex Group India Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Watches company earns the highest return on capital?

Timex Group India Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 82.8%, across 4 of 4 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 Watches stock is the cheapest?

On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Timex Group India Ltd screens cheapest at 1.43×. Only 2 of 4 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 Watches company has the strongest balance sheet?

Foce India Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹48 crore, from 4 of 4 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 Watches company is investing most in new capacity?

Ethos Ltd reports the largest capital spending at ₹24 crore, across 2 of 4 companies. Spending consumes cash before it earns anything, so treat the ranking as a diligence queue: check commissioning, utilisation and the return earned on the completed assets before reading spend as value creation.

Which Watches stock has the strongest price momentum?

Timex Group India 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 Watches company scores highest for research priority?

Timex Group India Ltd scores 81.4 out of 100 with 94% evidence confidence, from 32.7 points on growth and earnings, 18.1 on capital efficiency, 10.6 on valuation and 20 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 Watches companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 4 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals and 10 fiscal years of capital allocation, ending Mar 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 Watches sector?

The 4 Watches companies on this page carry ₹17,259 crore of combined market value. Ethos Ltd is the largest at ₹6,857 crore, about 40% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-07-29.

How is the Watches sector performing?

3 of the 4 covered Watches 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.
