Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the gap between them tells the story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 7 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member set to 100 at the start and the sector taking the middle value, so a price line pulling away from flat bars means the market is paying more for the same earnings. A bar turns grey when that figure is lower than the quarter before. The rules are fixed and the same 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.

How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. 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 path the industry 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 growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.
How have Auto Gears share prices moved?
Rane (Madras) Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Auto Ancillaries - Gears at +45.3%. It also leads on relative strength against the NIFTY, at +29.3%. 4 of 7 companies we track are ahead of the index on that measure (1 has no relative-strength reading yet). Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 30 October 2026.
Price and relative strength
Price · same starting point: 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.
RS vs NIFTY 500: 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.
RS vs sector: The same measure taken against Auto Ancillaries - Gears 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.

What is changing for Auto Gears companies?
New customer programmes and products are the clearest changes, supported by Rane (Madras) and RACL Geartech. Higher margins and lower debt are less secure: costs are rising, customer approvals remain pending, and some earlier promises have not been reconciled. The calls cover only 28.9% of industry market value, so these changes cannot yet be called industry-wide.
| What is changing | Which companies | Lasting? |
|---|---|---|
| A bigger order book | Both available companies describe customer programmes: Rane's export and steering orders, and RACL's BMW, Royal Enfield and ZF programmes. | looks lasting |
| New products | Rane has friction and steering initiatives; RACL has BMW and electric power-steering programmes. | looks lasting |

Rane (Madras) call 21 August 2026

What to watch next in Auto Gears stocks?
The next things that show whether the Auto Ancillaries - Gears story is on course. First: RACL's scheduled BMW final sign-off on October 24, 2026, followed by planned October–November customer supplies.
- RACL's heat-treatment commissioning during October–December 2026 and trial production in January 2027.
- Rane's attempted margin improvement in the third quarter of FY27 and evidence that customer price corrections offset costs.
- Reconciliation of RACL's Royal Enfield volumes and BHEL commercial status.
- Rane's land-sale receipts and actual debt reduction against its revised milestone.
What would change the story
An industry quarterly profit print below its year-earlier level again, despite higher sales, would show that the price breakout is running ahead of the business rather than marking a lasting earnings recovery.
From our industry review of 10 October 2026.
Which Auto Gears companies have the most revenue, and which grow fastest?
Rane (Madras) Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies compared here, at ₹4,024 crore. JTEKT India Ltd is next at ₹2,818 crore. Sar Auto Products Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 39.9%, so level and change sit with different companies. 7 of 7 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Rane (Madras) Ltd is the largest at ₹4,024 crore, 42.8% ahead of JTEKT India Ltd. Sar Auto Products Ltd's growth is 39.9% from a ₹17 crore base, with 15 reported quarters out of the last 20. Fast growth from a smaller base is not yet the same as proven size.
What this means: Rane (Madras) Ltd is the size to compare against; Sar Auto Products Ltd is the one growing fastest. The faster grower has to keep that growth and turn it into margin and returns before it counts as more than a fast start.
This conclusion weakens if: Rane (Madras) Ltd's growth falls below Sar Auto Products 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.

All-company data · latest reported quarter
In every all-company table on this page, each figure is the company’s latest single reported quarter. The rankings above them use trailing-twelve-month or current-market values, so a company can legitimately show a different number in each.

Revenue shows both size and speed. A large company can absorb shocks and pay for wide distribution; faster growth can mean market-share gains, new capacity or stronger demand. The best sign is usually growth that lasts without hurting margins and returns.
What to watch
Watch the next two reported quarters for growth persistence, margin conversion and whether the leader is gaining share without stretching working capital.
Which Auto Gears companies keep the most from each ₹100 of sales?
RACL Geartech Ltd has the highest OPM among the 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies compared here, at 24.1%. Shanthi Gears Ltd is next at 18%. The same company also has the highest Margin change, at +5.4 percentage points. 7 of 7 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: RACL Geartech Ltd leads both opm at 24.1% and margin change at +5.4 percentage points.
What this means: RACL Geartech Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
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.

Which Auto Gears companies earn the most profit?
Rane (Madras) Ltd has the highest Net profit among the 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies compared here, at ₹119 crore. JTEKT India Ltd is next at ₹72 crore. Sar Auto Products 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: Rane (Madras) Ltd earns the most, ₹119 crore of profit over the last 12 months, 64.6% above JTEKT India Ltd. Sar Auto Products Ltd shows at least 100% on the scoring scale (283.3% in full) growth from a profit base of ₹1 crore. A fast rate from a small base matters less than a large profit that keeps coming.
What this means: Rane (Madras) Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
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.

Which Auto Gears companies earn the best return on capital?
Shanthi Gears Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies compared here, at 25.6%. RACL Geartech Ltd is next at 16.9%. RACL Geartech Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +4.5 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 7 of 7 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026.
What the numbers say: Shanthi Gears Ltd leads ROCE at 25.6%, 8.7 percentage points above RACL Geartech Ltd. A high return reported once may be one good year; a high return reported year after year shows a lasting business.
What this means: Shanthi Gears Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.
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.

How are Auto Gears stocks valued against growth and quality?
Shanthi Gears Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies compared here, at 3.18×. The Hi-Tech Gears Ltd is next at 3.3×. Rane (Madras) Ltd has the lowest P/E at 27.1×, so level and change sit with different companies. 3 of 7 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026.
What the numbers say: Shanthi Gears Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 3.18×, 3.6% below The Hi-Tech Gears Ltd. That would need today's multiple, the company's own history and steady growth to agree.
What this means: A low valuation is a reason to look closer at the business, not a conclusion on its own.
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 worked out the same way every time, as the P/E on the last 12 months of reported earnings divided by that growth rate, never on expected earnings. 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.

Which stock lists do Auto Gears companies appear on?
Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies show up on 2 of our India lists. The most are on the momentum stocks list (2 companies).
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Auto Ancillaries - Gears comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 7 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 3 have second-source figures left out because the two sources disagree. A high growth rate can still come from a very small starting figure.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can come from a very small starting figure. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary, or look high because the capital base is small. It is best read beside margin, cash flow and how much is spent back on the business.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks published data only. Management quality, upcoming events and risks are not part of it.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- 3 companies are missing from the second-source figures on purpose: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Those rows have less evidence; that does not make the business weaker.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 7 Auto Ancillaries - Gears companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Sep 2026 and market data through 30 October 2026.
3 of 7 companies have a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: Rane (Madras) Ltd (RML): its two data sources disagree by up to 395% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; JTEKT India Ltd (JTEKTINDIA): its two data sources disagree by up to 17% on reported income across 21 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Z F Steering Gear (India) Ltd (ZFSTEERING): its two data sources disagree by up to 69% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.
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 are simply used. 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 else do people ask about Auto Gears stocks?
These 24 answers restate the Auto Ancillaries - Gears comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 7 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Sep 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 30 October 2026. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
