## Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

What the numbers say: Rane (Madras) Ltd is the scale leader at ₹3,863 crore, 87.3% ahead of JTEKT India Ltd. RACL Geartech Ltd's growth is 18.1% from a ₹490 crore base, with 14 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

Investor read: Rane (Madras) Ltd is the scale benchmark; RACL Geartech Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Rane (Madras) Ltd's growth falls below RACL Geartech Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Evidence: Rane (Madras) Ltd · ₹3,863 crore | 87.3% versus #2 · JTEKT India Ltd | 8/8 recent comparable periods | 7/7 companies · 100 observations

Definition: Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

## Operating Economics & Margin Trend

What the numbers say: RACL Geartech Ltd leads opm at 22%; JTEKT India Ltd leads margin change at 0 percentage points.

Investor read: RACL Geartech 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.

Evidence: RACL Geartech Ltd · 22% | 67.9% versus #2 · Shanthi Gears Ltd | 3/8 recent comparable periods | 7/7 companies · 125 observations

Definition: Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

## Profit Scale & Acceleration

What the numbers say: Rane (Madras) Ltd leads with ₹108 crore of TTM profit, 20% above JTEKT India Ltd. RACL Geartech Ltd shows ≥100% on the scoring scale growth from a ₹48 crore profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

Investor read: Rane (Madras) 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.

Evidence: Rane (Madras) Ltd · ₹108 crore | 20% versus #2 · JTEKT India Ltd | 4/8 recent comparable periods | 7/7 companies · 100 observations

Definition: 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.

## Return On Capital Employed

What the numbers say: Shanthi Gears Ltd leads ROCE at 25.6%, 8.6 percentage points above RACL Geartech Ltd. JTEKT India Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +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.

Investor read: Shanthi Gears 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.

Evidence: Shanthi Gears Ltd · 25.6% | 50.6% versus #2 · RACL Geartech Ltd | 2/8 recent comparable periods | 7/7 companies · 45 observations

Definition: 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

What the numbers say: Shanthi Gears Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 3.18×. Only 1 of 7 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.

Evidence: Shanthi Gears Ltd · 3.18× | Not enough peers | 0/8 recent comparable periods | 1/7 companies · 12 observations

Definition: 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.

### PEG — lowest PEG

## What can make this comparison misleading?
- 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.
- 2 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.
- 2 companies are 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.

Cross-checked: 1. Unverified: 4. Withheld: 2. Graded companies: 7.

2 of 7 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.

2 of 7 companies have a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: JTEKT India Ltd (JTEKTINDIA) — its two data sources disagree by up to 17% on reported income across 10 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Rane (Madras) Ltd (RML) — its two data sources disagree by up to 395% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.

### Which Auto Ancillaries - Gears company earns the highest return on capital?

Shanthi Gears Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 25.6%, across 7 of 7 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 Auto Ancillaries - Gears stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Shanthi Gears Ltd screens cheapest at 3.18×. Only 1 of 7 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.

### 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.
