Nifty FMCG - Rice Index — Constituents & Performance

How has FMCG - Rice moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this sector is 22% ahead of NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 12% on average over the last four reported quarters.
RS ↑3w · 4/5 >200d (+0) · 3/5 lead (+1) · EPS 5/5↑
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 5 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.
Is FMCG - Rice outperforming NIFTY 500?
FMCG - Rice has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 42.1% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 9.6%. 0 of 2 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. GRM Overseas Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +0.6%.
Sector metric: — as of latest available · unclassified · direction unavailable.
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.
Bottom line
FMCG - Rice has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 42.1% over 52 weeks and 9.6% over 13 weeks. 0 of 2 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 1 of 2 beat the sector itself. L T Foods Ltd leads with revenue of ₹10,267 crore, based on 2 of 2 comparable companies through Dec 2025.
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.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
L T Foods Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in FMCG - Rice at -16.9%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at -2.4%. 0 of 2 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-09-25.
Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind NIFTY 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS NIFTY 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against FMCG - Rice itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.
FMCG - Rice — the story behind the numbers
This is the written read behind the FMCG - Rice figures above — what is actually happening in the sector, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 19 Apr 2026, so the words are older than the numbers. 4 themes are live here, 1 of them rated high severity.
The sector exhibits strong revenue momentum and successful geographical diversification, but the near-term outlook is clouded by high tariff regimes and rising input costs. Investors should monitor the success of price pass-throughs and the ramp-up of the RTH segment as key margin drivers.
The rice FMCG sector, represented by LT Foods (LTFOODS), is navigating a period of record top-line performance tempered by external cost pressures. LTFOODS reported its highest-ever quarterly revenue of INR 2,812 crores, a 23% YoY increase.
How old this read is: STALE — this read comes from our FMCG - Rice sector brief dated 19 Apr 2026, about 5 months ago. The page says so rather than dressing it up, and a fresh sector dive replaces it the day it runs.
What is live in this sector right now
| Live theme | Severity | Evidence on file |
|---|---|---|
| U.S. import tariffs on rice have escalated to 50%.Named for LTFOODS | high | “Currently, it is 50%. And that is also on the imports, the imported value of the goods, not on the sales value.” Passing on the majority of the duty to consumers via a 25% price increase. |

What the numbers say: L T Foods Ltd is the scale leader at ₹10,267 crore, 449.3% ahead of GRM Overseas Ltd. GRM Overseas Ltd's growth is 43.3% from a ₹1,869 crore base, with 15 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

This conclusion weakens if: L T Foods Ltd's growth falls below GRM Overseas Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
No company in this FMCG - Rice comparison reports a valuation figure this section can compare, so the PEG rank is empty. On P/E, L T Foods Ltd is lowest at 21×, across 2 of 2 companies with a usable reading. PEG asks what price is being paid for growth; P/E keeps that answer anchored to the actual earnings multiple.
What the numbers say: There is not enough comparable evidence to name a reliable peg leader.
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.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This FMCG - Rice comparison names 7 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 2 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 1 draws 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.
- 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.
- Thin comparisons: Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 2 FMCG - Rice 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 2026-09-25. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees
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.

Figures are as of Jun 2026.
Which are the best FMCG - Rice stocks in India?
Ranked by this page's four-factor score, GRM Overseas Ltd places first among 2 listed FMCG - Rice companies, followed by L T Foods Ltd.

L T Foods Ltd earns the most, at ₹650 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 2 of 2 comparable companies. GRM Overseas Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 24.2%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which FMCG - Rice company earns the highest return on capital?
L T Foods Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 19.2%, across 2 of 2 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.

FMCG - Rice has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 42.1% over the last 52 weeks and 9.6% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 0 of 2 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which FMCG - Rice stock has the strongest price momentum?
L T Foods 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.

GRM Overseas Ltd scores 45.3 out of 100 with 84% evidence confidence, from 21.2 points on growth and earnings, 10.1 on capital efficiency, 8.8 on valuation and 5.2 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 FMCG - Rice companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
It compares 2 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, 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 FMCG - Rice sector?
The 2 FMCG - Rice companies on this page carry ₹15,335 crore of combined market value. L T Foods Ltd is the largest at ₹13,664 crore, about 89% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-09-27.
How is the FMCG - Rice sector performing?
0 of the 2 covered FMCG - Rice companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 42.1% behind NIFTY 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-09-27.
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.
