## Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

What the numbers say: Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the scale leader at ₹9,787 crore, 47.3% ahead of Atul Ltd. Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd's growth is stored at the ≥100% scoring cap; the uncapped TTM change is 192.6% from a ₹9,787 crore base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

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

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

Evidence: Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd · ₹9,787 crore | 47.3% versus #2 · Atul Ltd | 8/8 recent comparable periods | 10/10 companies · 151 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: Atul Ltd leads both opm at 21% and margin change at +5 percentage points.

Evidence: Atul Ltd · 21% | 16.7% versus #2 · Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd | 5/8 recent comparable periods | 10/10 companies · 192 observations

## Profit Scale & Acceleration

What the numbers say: Kiri Industries Ltd leads with ₹5,567 crore of TTM profit, 586.4% above Atul Ltd. Bodal Chemicals Ltd shows ≥100% on the scoring scale (166.7% uncapped) growth from a ₹48 crore profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

Investor read: Kiri Industries 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: Kiri Industries Ltd · ₹5,567 crore | 586.4% versus #2 · Atul Ltd | 4/6 recent comparable periods | 10/10 companies · 151 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: Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd leads ROCE at 18.8%, 3.9 percentage points above Atul Ltd. Indokem Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +11 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: Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients 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: Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd · 18.8% | 26.2% versus #2 · Atul Ltd | 7/8 recent comparable periods | 10/10 companies · 120 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: Atul Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.69×, 51.4% below Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd. Only 2 of 10 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: Atul Ltd · 0.69× | 51.4% versus #2 · Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd | 0/8 recent comparable periods | 2/10 companies · 8 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.

## 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.
- 6 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.
- 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.

## Source standing of each company

Cross-checked: 2. Unverified: 7. Withheld: 1. Graded companies: 10.

6 of 10 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.

1 of 10 companies has a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: Kiri Industries Ltd (KIRIINDUS) — its two data sources disagree by up to 331% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.

- WITHHELD | KIRIINDUS | Kiri Industries Ltd | diff_gt_2pct | disagreement up to 331.07% over 14 comparable periods

### How much history does this Dyes & Pigments comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

### How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

### What is the Nifty Dyes & Pigments index?

The Nifty Dyes & Pigments index tracks India's listed Dyes & Pigments companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 10 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Dyes & Pigments sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

### Which are the best Dyes & Pigments stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Atul Ltd places first among 10 listed Dyes & Pigments companies, followed by Bhageria Industries 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 Dyes & Pigments stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 10 listed Dyes & Pigments 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 Dyes & Pigments company is the biggest?

Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹9,787 crore, ahead of Atul Ltd at ₹6,644 crore. That covers 10 of 10 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

### Which Dyes & Pigments company has the best profit margins?

Atul Ltd has the highest operating margin at 21%, from 10 of 10 comparable companies. Atul Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +5 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

### Which Dyes & Pigments company makes the most profit?

Kiri Industries Ltd earns the most, at ₹5,567 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 10 of 10 comparable companies. Bodal Chemicals Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

### Which Dyes & Pigments company earns the highest return on capital?

Vidhi Specialty Food Ingredients Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 18.8%, across 10 of 10 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 Dyes & Pigments stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Atul Ltd screens cheapest at 0.69×. Only 2 of 10 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 the Dyes & Pigments sector beating the market?

Dyes & Pigments has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 4.7% over the last 52 weeks and 6.1% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 5 of 10 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.

### Which Dyes & Pigments stock has the strongest price momentum?

Sadhana Nitro Chem 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.

### Which Dyes & Pigments company scores highest for research priority?

Atul Ltd scores 68.8 out of 100 with 100% evidence confidence, from 28 points on growth and earnings, 17.3 on capital efficiency, 14.6 on valuation and 8.9 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 Dyes & Pigments companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 10 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 Dyes & Pigments sector?

The 10 Dyes & Pigments companies on this page carry ₹38,216 crore of combined market value. Atul Ltd is the largest at ₹19,833 crore, about 52% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-05.

### What is the Dyes & Pigments sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 10 Dyes & Pigments companies on this page is 24.9×, measured on the 8 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-05.

### How is the Dyes & Pigments sector performing?

5 of the 10 covered Dyes & Pigments companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 4.7% behind 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.
