## 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).

   - Exact sum: 16.3 + 13.6 + 8.2 + 15.6 = 53.7
   - Decision use: Price leads the evidence: RS versus the benchmark is -2.4%, but earnings trajectory is weak. Wait for revenue and profit confirmation.
2. Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd (EKC): 30/100 — Adverse evidence; evidence 71%

## Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

What the numbers say: Time Technoplast Ltd is the scale leader at ₹6,446 crore, 351.1% ahead of Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd. Time Technoplast Ltd's growth is 15.5% from a ₹6,446 crore base, with 20 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

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

This conclusion weakens if: Time Technoplast Ltd's growth falls below Time Technoplast Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Evidence: Time Technoplast Ltd · ₹6,446 crore | 351.1% versus #2 · Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd | 8/8 recent comparable periods | 2/2 companies · 35 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: Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd leads opm at 14%; Time Technoplast Ltd leads margin change at -1 percentage points.

Investor read: Everest Kanto Cylinder 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: Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd · 14% | 7.7% versus #2 · Time Technoplast Ltd | 3/8 recent comparable periods | 2/2 companies · 40 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: Time Technoplast Ltd leads with ₹498 crore of TTM profit, 295.2% above Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd. Time Technoplast Ltd shows 21.2% growth from a ₹498 crore profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

Investor read: Time Technoplast 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: Time Technoplast Ltd · ₹498 crore | 295.2% versus #2 · Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd | 8/8 recent comparable periods | 2/2 companies · 35 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: Time Technoplast Ltd leads ROCE at 16.7%, 5.1 percentage points above Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd. Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at -1.1 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: Time Technoplast 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: Time Technoplast Ltd · 16.7% | 44% versus #2 · Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd | 7/8 recent comparable periods | 2/2 companies · 30 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.

### ROCE — highest
1. Time Technoplast Ltd (TIMETECHNO): 17%
2. Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd (EKC): 12%

## Valuation Against Growth & Quality

What the numbers say: Time Technoplast Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 1.73×. Only 1 of 2 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: Time Technoplast Ltd · 1.73× | Not enough peers | 0/8 recent comparable periods | 1/2 companies · 20 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
1. Time Technoplast Ltd (TIMETECHNO): 1.7

### P/E — lowest P/E
1. Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd (EKC): 9.3
2. Time Technoplast Ltd (TIMETECHNO): 19.5

## 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 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.

## Source standing of each company

Cross-checked: 1. Unverified: 1. Withheld: 0. Graded companies: 2.

1 of 2 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.

### Is there a Nifty Cylinder index?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Time Technoplast Ltd places first among 2 listed Cylinder companies, followed by Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd.

### Which Cylinder company has the best profit margins?

### Which Cylinder company earns the highest return on capital?

Time Technoplast Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 16.7%, 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.

### Which Cylinder stock is the cheapest?

Only 1 of 2 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict.

### 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.
