The main question: the lead sits with a few companies, so how long it lasts matters more than the rank.

Start with size. Then the direction of earnings. Then the quality of the business. A share price that leads means more once those three agree.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the gap between them tells the story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 4 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member set to 100 at the start and the sector taking the middle value, so a price line pulling away from flat bars means the market is paying more for the same earnings. A bar turns grey when that figure is lower than the quarter before. The rules are fixed and the same everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover or tap any point to read both values and the gap.

How does each Pump stock score?

A score that ranks each company against the others in its industry. The four parts shown always add up to the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or old evidence affects only its own part, never as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35% Capital efficiency · 25% Valuation · 20% Relative strength · 20%

WPIL Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 57.3% evidence confidence.

How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

How have Pump share prices moved?

WPIL Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Pumps at −9.1%. It also leads on relative strength against the NIFTY, at +2.4%. 1 of 4 companies we track is ahead of the index on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 30 October 2026.

Price and relative strength

Price · same starting point: Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts: the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

RS vs NIFTY 500: How far ahead of or behind NIFTY 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS NIFTY 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.

RS vs sector: The same measure taken against Pumps itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.

From our industry review of 27 June 2026. A newer review (10 October 2026) did not cover Pumps, so this is the latest we have.

What did Pump managements say about July to September 2026?

2 of 4 Pumps companies held a results call for July to September 2026. WPIL guided: Full-year operating margin inside 15-20% band centered on 17-18% goal.

WPIL call 31 October 2026

“No, I think if you see our gross margins, they have actually improved. Revenue is the challenge. There has been a slight dip in revenue, but it is not the gross margin. The gross margins are strong.”Prakash Agarwal

Guided: Full-year operating margin inside 15-20% band centered on 17-18% goal.

Kirloskar Brothers call 28 October 2026

“Yes. Domestic growth is finished because, at an electricity price of 30 rupees a unit, the domestic market is completely finished. There is no petrochemical activity, and there is no new drilling taking place.”Alok Kirloskar

Guided: Standalone FY27 revenue double-digit growth over FY26 backed by pending visibility.

From the results calls for July to September 2026.

Is money moving into Pump stocks? Who is adding capacity?

Big funds, foreign and Indian, kept their stake about the same over the last two quarters. Founders and promoters kept theirs about the same.

  • Spending on new plants and equipment was ₹865 crore in the last 12 months, 17% less than a year before.
  • Projects still being built grew 67% in a year.

Big funds = foreign and Indian institutions, change in their share of ownership across 5 Pumps companies, in percentage points.

Ownership and spending as of 10 October 2026.

What is changing in Pump stocks?

This is the written read behind the Pumps figures above: what is actually happening in the industry, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 27 Jun 2026, so the words are older than the numbers. It also states what would change this read.

How old this read is: OLD: this read comes from our fortnightly sector read dated 27 Jun 2026, about 4 months ago. The page says so rather than dressing it up, and a fresh sector dive replaces it the day it runs.

What would change this read

Input-cost inflation aggressively reverses and government scheme execution accelerates, allowing the sector to maintain its peak margins and preventing the mean-reversion implied by the curve.

Sources: our fortnightly Pumps read, 27 Jun 2026.

Which Pump companies have the most revenue, and which grow fastest?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 4 Pumps companies compared here, at ₹4,913 crore. KSB Ltd is next at ₹2,726 crore. The same company also has the highest Revenue growth, at 10.8%. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026. Its Revenue series carries 20 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Kirloskar Brothers Ltd is the largest at ₹4,913 crore, 80.2% ahead of KSB Ltd. Fast growth from a smaller base is not yet the same as proven size.

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd · ₹4,913 croreLeader
80.2% versus #2 · KSB LtdGap
5/8 recent comparable periodsPersistence
4/4 companies · 74 observationsCoverage

What this means: Kirloskar Brothers Ltd is both the largest and the fastest-growing company here; the growth has to turn into margin and returns before it counts as more than a fast start.

This conclusion weakens if: Kirloskar Brothers Ltd's revenue growth slows for two consecutive comparable reports while its operating margin also compresses.

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

Revenue shows both size and speed. A large company can absorb shocks and pay for wide distribution; faster growth can mean market-share gains, new capacity or stronger demand. The best sign is usually growth that lasts without hurting margins and returns.

What to watch

Watch the next two reported quarters for growth persistence, margin conversion and whether the leader is gaining share without stretching working capital.

Roto Pumps Ltd has the highest OPM among the 4 Pumps companies compared here, at 20.1%. WPIL Ltd is next at 13%. The same company also has the highest Margin change, at −0.5 percentage points. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026. Its OPM series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Roto Pumps Ltd leads both opm at 20.1% and margin change at −0.5 percentage points.

What this means: Roto Pumps Ltd sets the level to compare against; the company improving fastest needs another report to confirm the change.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

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

Which Pump companies earn the most profit?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the highest Net profit among the 4 Pumps companies compared here, at ₹380 crore. KSB Ltd is next at ₹246 crore. WPIL Ltd has the highest Profit growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Net profit series carries 20 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Kirloskar Brothers Ltd earns the most, ₹380 crore of profit over the last 12 months, 54.5% above KSB Ltd. WPIL Ltd shows at least 100% on the scoring scale (137.4% in full) growth from a profit base of ₹216 crore. A fast rate from a small base matters less than a large profit that keeps coming.

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.

What to watch

Which Pump companies earn the best return on capital?

KSB Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 4 Pumps companies compared here, at 24.7%. Kirloskar Brothers Ltd is next at 20.4%. WPIL Ltd has the highest ROCE change at −1 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: KSB Ltd leads ROCE at 24.7%, 4.3 percentage points above Kirloskar Brothers Ltd. A high return reported once may be one good year; a high return reported year after year shows a lasting business.

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.

How are Pump stocks valued against growth and quality?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 4 Pumps companies compared here, at 1.75×. KSB Ltd is next at 3.02×. WPIL Ltd has the lowest P/E at 26.6×, so level and change sit with different companies. 3 of 4 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026.

What the numbers say: Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 1.75×, 42.1% below KSB Ltd. That would need today's multiple, the company's own history and steady growth to agree.

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd · 1.75×Leader
42.1% versus #2 · KSB LtdGap
0/8 recent comparable periodsPersistence
3/4 companies · 28 observationsCoverage

What this means: A low valuation is a reason to look closer at the business, not a conclusion on its own.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is worked out the same way every time, as the P/E on the last 12 months of reported earnings divided by that growth rate, never on expected earnings. 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.

Which stock lists do Pump companies appear on?

Pumps companies show up on 4 of our India lists. The most are on the 52 week high & low list (1 company).

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Pumps comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 4 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 has second-source figures left out because the two sources disagree. A high growth rate can still come from a very small starting figure.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can come from a very small starting figure. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary, or look high because the capital base is small. It is best read beside margin, cash flow and how much is spent back on the business.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks published data only. Management quality, upcoming events and risks are not part of it.
  • 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-source figures on purpose: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Those rows have less evidence; that does not make the business weaker.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 4 Pumps companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Sep 2026 and market data through 30 October 2026.

FundamentalsThrough Sep 2026 · up to 20 quarters per company
Market dataThrough 30 October 2026 · weekly price and relative-strength history
Derived metricsGrowth, changes and PEG are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and old evidence lowers confidence and pulls the 0 to 100 score toward the middle.
Source standing3 cross-checked · 0 unverified · 1 withheld, of 4 graded companies.

1 of 4 companies has a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: WPIL Ltd (WPIL): its two data sources disagree by up to 24% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.

How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees

A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree, the figures are simply used. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn, they are the only evidence there is, and marked unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from.

What else do people ask about Pump stocks?

These 23 answers restate the Pumps comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 4 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Sep 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 30 October 2026. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Pump sector outperforming NIFTY 500?

Pumps has done worse than the NIFTY 500 by 7.4% over 52 weeks and by 9.2% over 13 weeks.

0 of 4 companies we track are beating the NIFTY on relative strength (how a share price has done against the index over recent months), and 1 of the 2 with a long enough price history is ahead of the industry itself.

Which Pump company is largest by revenue?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd leads with revenue of ₹4,913 crore, based on 4 of 4 comparable companies through Sep 2026.

Which Pump company is growing fastest?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the fastest current revenue growth at 10.8%, across 4 of 4 comparable companies.

Which Pump company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

WPIL Ltd ranks first at 52 out of 100, with 57.3% of the evidence available. The score ranks published data; it is not a recommendation.

Which Pump company has the lowest comparable PEG?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 1.75, among 3 of 4 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Pump comparison include?

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

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four parts add up 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 old evidence moves only that part toward the middle.

Is there a Nifty Pump index?

NSE runs Nifty indices for several broad sectors, such as Nifty Bank, Nifty IT and Nifty Pharma, but not for every smaller group on this site.

Whether or not an official Nifty index covers Pumps, this page builds its own equal-weight basket of 4 listed Pumps companies: one company, one vote, whatever its size, so no single large company dominates. Figures are as of Sep 2026.

Which are the best Pump stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, WPIL Ltd comes first among 4 listed Pumps companies, followed by Kirloskar Brothers Ltd. That is a ranking of published data (earnings, quality, valuation and share-price behaviour as of Sep 2026), not a recommendation.

How many Pump stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 4 listed Pumps 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 Sep 2026.

Which Pump company is the biggest?

Kirloskar Brothers Ltd is the largest, with revenue of ₹4,913 crore over the last 12 months, ahead of KSB Ltd at ₹2,726 crore. That covers 4 of 4 companies with comparable reporting through Sep 2026.

Which Pump company has the best profit margins?

Roto Pumps Ltd has the highest operating margin at 20.1%, from 4 of 4 comparable companies. Roto Pumps Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at −0.5 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is steady or rising, not when it is at a peak.
