KEC International Ltd (KEC): -29% ## Revenue Scale & Growth Durability What the numbers say: Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd is the scale leader at ₹46,733 crore, 53.3% ahead of Adani Energy Solutions Ltd. Adani Energy Solutions Ltd's growth is 20.9% from a ₹30,480 crore base, with 15 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale. Investor read: Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd is the scale benchmark; Adani Energy Solutions Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns. This conclusion weakens if: Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd's growth falls below Adani Energy Solutions Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses. Evidence: Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd · ₹46,733 crore | 53.3% versus #2 · Adani Energy Solutions Ltd | 5/8 recent comparable periods | 3/3 companies · 53 observations Definition: Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis.

Only 2 of 3 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: KEC International Ltd · 0.34× | 83.8% versus #2 · Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd | 0/8 recent comparable periods | 2/3 companies · 14 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.

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 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. ## Every company - Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd (POWERGRID) — market value ₹2.6 L Cr; latest fundamentals Mar 2026 - Adani Energy Solutions Ltd (ADANIENSOL) — market value ₹2.0 L Cr; latest fundamentals Jun 2026; second-feed figures WITHHELD - KEC International Ltd (KEC) — market value ₹12.5K Cr; latest fundamentals Mar 2026 ## Source standing of each company Cross-checked: 2.

Power - Transmission/Equipment has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 7.3% over 52 weeks and 3.6% over 13 weeks. 1 of 3 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 1 of 3 beat the sector itself. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment company is largest by revenue?

Adani Energy Solutions Ltd ranks first at 66.5/100 with 72.3% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment company has the lowest comparable PEG? KEC International Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.34, among 2 of 3 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything. ### How much history does this Power - Transmission/Equipment 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment index? The Nifty Power - Transmission/Equipment index tracks India's listed Power - Transmission/Equipment companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 3 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Power - Transmission/Equipment sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026. ### Which are the best Power - Transmission/Equipment stocks in India? Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Adani Energy Solutions Ltd places first among 3 listed Power - Transmission/Equipment companies, followed by KEC International 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment stocks are listed in India? This comparison covers 3 listed Power - Transmission/Equipment 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment company is the biggest? Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹46,733 crore, ahead of Adani Energy Solutions Ltd at ₹30,480 crore. That covers 3 of 3 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment company has the best profit margins? Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd has the highest operating margin at 45%, from 3 of 3 comparable companies. Adani Energy Solutions Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +4 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment company makes the most profit? Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd earns the most, at ₹15,928 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 3 of 3 comparable companies. Adani Energy Solutions Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 16.6%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment company earns the highest return on capital? KEC International Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 16.5%, across 3 of 3 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment stock is the cheapest? On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — KEC International Ltd screens cheapest at 0.34×. Only 2 of 3 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment sector beating the market? Power - Transmission/Equipment has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 7.3% over the last 52 weeks and 3.6% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 1 of 3 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it. ### Which Power - Transmission/Equipment stock has the strongest price momentum? Adani Energy Solutions 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment company scores highest for research priority? Adani Energy Solutions Ltd scores 66.5 out of 100 with 72.3% evidence confidence, from 25.1 points on growth and earnings, 11.4 on capital efficiency, 10 on valuation and 20 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment companies does this comparison cover, and over what period? It compares 3 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 Power - Transmission/Equipment sector? The 3 Power - Transmission/Equipment companies on this page carry ₹4,74,512 crore of combined market value. Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd is the largest at ₹2,64,370 crore, about 56% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-05. ### How is the Power - Transmission/Equipment sector performing? 1 of the 3 covered Power - Transmission/Equipment companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 7.3% ahead of 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.
