L G Balakrishnan & Bros is on 2 of our India lists: Momentum stocks and Breakout stocks. - [Momentum stocks Market cap cr: 5370.44226631604](https://www.sectoralpha.in/momentum-stocks-india) - [Breakout stocks Breakout date: 9 October 2026](https://www.sectoralpha.in/breakout-stocks-india) ## Is L G Balakrishnan & Bros profitable? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd earned ₹94.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, +0.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹319 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 17.1% a year on average. That is 9.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹94.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹319 Cr (+5.6% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +20.5% on a year earlier and the margin moved −2.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +0.2% and revenue +21.1%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does L G Balakrishnan & Bros make, and is it growing? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd reported ₹948 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +20.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 10.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹3,076 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹3,379 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹3,076 Cr, +19.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +21.1% on average, against 10.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +21.1%, against +17.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −0.3%, against +6.0% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does L G Balakrishnan & Bros keep? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's operating margin was 15.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 2.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 12.0% and 19.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.5 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is L G Balakrishnan & Bros' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 108% of L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹332 Cr of operating cash against ₹319 Cr of profit. After ₹409 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹77.0 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 108% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 62 days longer between FY21 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 3.1× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does L G Balakrishnan & Bros' cash go? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 93 days in FY26, up from 31 days in FY21. It spent ₹894 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 48 days to pay, and stock sits for 140 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹3,076 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹8.4 Cr, so roughly ₹784 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 48 days to pay and stock sat for 140 days, about 4.6 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 93 days, longer than FY21's 31. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 140 days. Customers pay about 48 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 95 days. Together that makes the 93-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹894 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹285 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building well beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹30.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is L G Balakrishnan & Bros' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's P/E is 16.8×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 80% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 14.2×, over 11 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +5.5% while the price moved +18.6%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved +24.8% a year; about +14.1% a year came from earnings growth and about +10.7 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more); over 10 years the price moved +18.0% a year; about +17.4% a year came from earnings growth and about +0.6 percentage points from the multiple (roughly no change). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the L G Balakrishnan & Bros business getting better or worse? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's business is slowing from a peak. Profit and EPS growth have slowed sharply (profit growth from +12.7% at its peak to −0.3% now), while ROCE is still 20.6%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: slowing from a peak is where good stories often end quietly. ## How much does L G Balakrishnan & Bros earn on its capital? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd earned a ROCE of 20% in FY26. That is up from a low of 13% in FY20. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 0.8 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 10.4% net margin and 1.03× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 10.4% net margin × 1.03× asset turnover × 1.39× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 14.9% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 12.8% − 12.0% = +0.8 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. The 12.8% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 14.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does L G Balakrishnan & Bros have too much debt? L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd has total debt of ₹231 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹2,156 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.11× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.09 in FY22 to 0.11 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the L G Balakrishnan & Bros shareholding pattern? No group of L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd's owners changed its stake by a full percentage point over the last two years. Foreign institutions moved −0.4 points over the same period, to 6.0%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: −0.8 points over 8 quarters, to 13.6%; Foreign institutions: −0.4 points over 8 quarters, to 6.0%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 34.8%. ## How far is L G Balakrishnan & Bros from balance-sheet trouble? For L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does L G Balakrishnan & Bros rank in its industry? 49.4 out of 100, rank 3 of 4 in Auto Ancillaries - 2 Wheelers, with 97% of the evidence available. L G Balakrishnan & Bros Ltd scores 49.4 out of 100 against the 4 companies it is compared with in Auto Ancillaries - 2 Wheelers, ranking 3. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 12.2 + 18.6 + 9 + 9.6 = 49.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is L G Balakrishnan & Bros compared with?

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. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
