Kotyark Industries Ltd

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Kotyark Industries Ltd trades at ₹38.9, in a confirmed uptrend and 11 weeks into that stage. That is +17.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 32% of a 52-week range of ₹36 to ₹45. On relative strength it has no relative-strength read yet.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 11 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹38.9 it trades +17.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 32% of its 52-week range (₹36–₹45).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 2 months the stock moved +5% while the NIFTY 500 moved +3% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: no trailing-13-week read yet — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Kotyark Industries Ltd trades at 23.4× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 24% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 38.9×, measured across 3.1 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 23.4× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 24% of the time, against a long-run median of 38.9× measured over 3.1 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Put together: the multiple is low against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

Stage: No read Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Kotyark Industries Ltd reads as no read on its fundamental arc. Under eight usable quarters on the growth trio — not enough history for an honest trajectory read.

Why it matters: with too little history, an honest page says so instead of guessing a trajectory.

One or more growth curves carry a base-effect spike — a large year-on-year move off a near-zero or loss-making comparable quarter. Those spikes are capped before the classifier reads the trajectory, and shown pinned on the chart, so a single distorted quarter does not drive the stage call.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

Fewer than eight usable quarters on the growth curves — this page will not guess a trajectory from a stub of history.

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Kotyark Industries Ltd reported ₹63.7 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +220.5% year on year. Over 3 years it has compounded at 34.0% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹315 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹331 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹315 Cr (+9.4% on the year), capping 3 years at 34.0% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹63.7 Cr, +220.5% year on year.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +72.7% growth against the decade's 34.0% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Kotyark Industries Ltd's operating margin is 30.1% in the Mar 26 quarter, +1.8 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across the last four quarters the operating margin has moved +5.3 percentage points. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 15.0% to 19.0%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 30.1%, +1.8 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 15.0%–19.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +11.8 pp year on year while gross margin went +16.8 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Kotyark Industries Ltd earned ₹9.4 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +521.2% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹19.0 Cr. The 3-year compound rate is 10.7%. That is 14.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹12.8 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹9.4 Cr, +521.2% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹19.0 Cr (+35.7%), and the 3-year compound rate is 10.7%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +220.5% and the margin +1.8 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +141.1% vs revenue +72.7%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 20% of Kotyark Industries Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹−4.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹19.0 Cr of profit. After ₹3.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹−7.0 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹−4.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹19.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−7.0 Cr after ₹3.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 20% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

🚨 Why conversion sits at 20%: the cash cycle stretched 68 days between FY23 and FY26 — more of each rupee of profit waits inside the cycle before arriving. Less than 70% of profit arriving as cash is the thing to watch on this page.

Router verdict: conversion is below par and the cash cycle has stretched 68 days — the next section's job is to find where the cash is stuck.

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Kotyark Industries Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 246 days in FY26, up from 178 days in FY23. Capital spending ran ₹72.0 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹315 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹0.9 Cr, so roughly ₹212 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 21 days, inventory at 228 days — roughly 7.5 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 246 days, looser than FY23's 178.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 228 days to sell; customers pay about 21 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 2 days — netting out to the 246-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹315 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹0.9 Cr — so the 246-day loop keeps roughly ₹212 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹72.0 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹36.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹13.0 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

The synthesis: the working-capital loop is the cash sink the router flagged — watch the cycle, not the P&L.

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Kotyark Industries Ltd earns a ROCE of 15% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 13% in FY25. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −1.7 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 6.0% net margin on 1.21× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 15%, recovered from a FY25 trough of 13% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 6.0% net margin × 1.21× asset turns × 1.45× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 10.5% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 10.3% − 12.0% = a −1.7 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings; interest cover says how many times operating profit pays the interest bill. Low and high, respectively, is the safe corner.

Kotyark Industries Ltd carries ₹65.0 Cr of borrowings against ₹180 Cr of equity in FY26, a debt-to-equity of 0.36. Operating profit covers the interest bill 6×. Over 3 years borrowings went from ₹34.0 Cr to ₹65.0 Cr. Capital spending ran ₹72.0 Cr across the last 3 of those years.

FY26: borrowings of ₹65.0 Cr against equity of ₹180 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.36. Operating profit covers the interest bill 6×. Over 3 years borrowings went from ₹34.0 Cr to ₹65.0 Cr while capital spending ran ₹72.0 Cr in just the last 3 — part of the build-out is riding on borrowed money.

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Promoters cut 8.4 points of Kotyark Industries Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 63.8% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +1.0 points over the same window, to 1.0%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Promoters: −8.4 points over 8 quarters to 63.8%; Foreign institutions: +1.0 points over 8 quarters to 1.0%; Domestic institutions: +0.0 points over 8 quarters to 0.0%.

🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−8.4 points), absorbed on the other side by foreign institutions (+1.0 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Kotyark Industries Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.
