Abrasives & Grinding Wheels, equal-weighted, based at 200 NIFTY 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

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 3 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.

03 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

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%
Grindwell Norton Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 97% evidence confidence.
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.

05 · what price has already done

Market action

Grindwell Norton Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Abrasives & Grinding Wheels at +29%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +24.5%. 3 of 3 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-07-31.

Price and relative strength

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.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Carborundum Universal Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 3 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies compared here, at ₹5,206 crore. Grindwell Norton Ltd is next at ₹3,173 crore. Grindwell Norton Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 12.9%, so level and change sit with different companies. 3 of 3 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Carborundum Universal Ltd is the scale leader at ₹5,206 crore, 64.1% ahead of Grindwell Norton Ltd. Grindwell Norton Ltd's growth is 12.9% from a ₹3,173 crore base, with 20 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderCarborundum Universal Ltd · ₹5,206 crore
Gap64.1% versus #2 · Grindwell Norton Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage3/3 companies · 49 observations

Investor read: Carborundum Universal Ltd is the scale benchmark; Grindwell Norton Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Carborundum Universal Ltd's growth falls below Grindwell Norton 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.

Return On Capital Employed

Grindwell Norton Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 3 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies compared here, at 21.2%. Carborundum Universal Ltd is next at 10.5%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +0.7 percentage points. 3 of 3 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Grindwell Norton Ltd leads ROCE at 21.2%, 10.7 percentage points above Carborundum Universal Ltd. Grindwell Norton Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +0.7 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.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Grindwell Norton Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 3 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies compared here, at 1.36×. The same company also holds the lowest P/E, at 53.8×. 1 of 3 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026. Its PEG series carries 9 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Grindwell Norton Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 1.36×. Only 1 of 3 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

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 feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Abrasives & Grinding Wheels comparison names 7 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 3 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: Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 3 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels 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 2026-07-31. 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.

What is the Nifty Abrasives & Grinding Wheels index?

The Nifty Abrasives & Grinding Wheels index tracks India's listed Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 3 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Abrasives & Grinding Wheels sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best Abrasives & Grinding Wheels stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Grindwell Norton Ltd places first among 3 listed Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies, followed by Wendt India 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 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 3 listed Abrasives & Grinding Wheels 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 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels company is the biggest?

Which Abrasives & Grinding Wheels company has the best profit margins?

Grindwell Norton Ltd has the highest operating margin at 20%, from 3 of 3 comparable companies. Grindwell Norton Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +2 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Abrasives & Grinding Wheels company makes the most profit?

Grindwell Norton Ltd earns the most, at ₹437 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 3 of 3 comparable companies. Grindwell Norton Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 17.5%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Abrasives & Grinding Wheels company earns the highest return on capital?

Grindwell Norton Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 21.2%, across 3 of 3 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 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Grindwell Norton Ltd screens cheapest at 1.36×. Only 1 of 3 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, 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.

Abrasives & Grinding Wheels has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 10.8% over the last 52 weeks and 20.9% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members.

Which Abrasives & Grinding Wheels stock has the strongest price momentum?

Grindwell Norton 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.

Grindwell Norton Ltd scores 72.9 out of 100 with 97% evidence confidence, from 23.1 points on growth and earnings, 19.3 on capital efficiency, 10.5 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 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 3 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 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels sector?

The 3 Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies on this page carry ₹45,382 crore of combined market value. Grindwell Norton Ltd is the largest at ₹23,475 crore, about 52% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-05.

How is the Abrasives & Grinding Wheels sector performing?

3 of the 3 covered Abrasives & Grinding Wheels companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 10.8% ahead of NIFTY 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-05.

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.
