Emkay Tools Ltd (ETL): 9.0% ## Revenue Scale & Growth Durability What the numbers say: There is not enough comparable evidence to name a reliable revenue leader. Investor read: The current leader 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 revenue growth signal. Evidence: No comparable leader | Not enough peers | Not enough history | 0/1 companies · 4 observations Definition: Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress. ### Revenue — largest ### Revenue growth — fastest growers ### 4-quarter Revenue history - ETL: Sep 2024 ₹54 Cr | Mar 2025 ₹63 Cr | Sep 2025 ₹62 Cr | Mar 2026 ₹82 Cr ### 4-quarter Revenue growth history - ETL: Sep 2024 — | Mar 2025 — | Sep 2025 15% | Mar 2026 30% ## Operating Economics & Margin Trend What the numbers say: Emkay Tools Ltd leads both opm at 57% and margin change at +3 percentage points. Investor read: Emkay Tools 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: Emkay Tools Ltd · 57% | Not enough peers | 2/2 recent comparable periods | 1/1 companies · 4 observations Definition: Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth. ### OPM — highest 1. Emkay Tools Ltd (ETL): 57% ### Margin change — fastest expanders 1.

Investor read: The current leader 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: No comparable leader | Not enough peers | Not enough history | 0/1 companies · 4 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. ### Net profit — largest ### Profit growth — fastest growers ### 4-quarter Net profit history - ETL: Sep 2024 ₹20 Cr | Mar 2025 ₹25 Cr | Sep 2025 ₹24 Cr | Mar 2026 ₹34 Cr ### 4-quarter Profit growth history - ETL: Sep 2024 — | Mar 2025 — | Sep 2025 20% | Mar 2026 36% ## Return On Capital Employed What the numbers say: Emkay Tools Ltd leads ROCE at 70.7%. Emkay Tools Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at -0.2 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: Emkay Tools 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: Emkay Tools Ltd · 70.7% | Not enough peers | Not enough history | 1/1 companies · 2 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. Emkay Tools Ltd (ETL): 71% ### ROCE change — fastest improvers 1.

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: No comparable leader | Not enough peers | Not enough history | 0/1 companies · 0 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 ### P/E — lowest P/E 1. Emkay Tools Ltd (ETL): 18.7 ### 4-quarter PEG history ### 4-quarter P/E history - ETL: Sep 2024 — | Mar 2025 — | Sep 2025 21.9 | Mar 2026 19.2 ## 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: Revenue, Net profit, Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings. ## Every company - Emkay Tools Ltd (ETL) — market value ₹1.1K Cr; latest fundamentals Mar 2026; includes UNVERIFIED second-feed figures ## Source standing of each company Cross-checked: 0. Unverified: 1. Withheld: 0. Graded companies: 1. 1 of 1 company 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. - UNVERIFIED | ETL | Emkay Tools Ltd | too little overlapping reported history to cross-check the second feed ## Methodology and freshness Fundamentals through Mar 2026; prices through 2026-08-14.
