Linc is not on any of our India lists this week. ## Is Linc profitable? Linc Ltd earned ₹6.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −14.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹33.0 Cr. Over 2 years profit has grown −1.5% a year on average. That is 4.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹7.1 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹33.0 Cr (−13.2% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +1.4% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.9 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −12.7% and revenue −0.5%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Linc make, and is it growing? Linc Ltd reported ₹139 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +1.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 2 years it has grown 3.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹543 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹545 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹543 Cr, +0.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −0.5% on average, against 3.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −1.0%, against +1.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −12.5%, against −5.5% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Linc keep? Linc Ltd's operating margin was 8.7% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.9 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 3 years it has been between 11.0% and 12.0%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.8 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Linc's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 122% of Linc Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹33.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹33.0 Cr of profit. After ₹28.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹5.0 Cr was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 122% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle stayed about the same between FY24 and FY26, so the cash follows profit, not the cycle. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 1.6× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Linc's cash go? Linc Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 90 days in FY26, up from 84 days in FY24. It spent ₹47.0 Cr on assets over the last 2 years. Customers take 34 days to pay, and stock sits for 117 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹543 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹1.5 Cr, so roughly ₹134 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 34 days to pay and stock sat for 117 days, about 3.8 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 90 days, longer than FY24's 84. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 117 days. Customers pay about 34 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 60 days. Together that makes the 90-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹47.0 Cr over the last 2 years, against ₹30.0 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 ₹34.0 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 Linc's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Linc Ltd's P/E is 16.8×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 7% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 20.2×, over 2.4 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 −13.9% while the price moved −31.6%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Linc business getting better or worse? Linc Ltd's business is getting worse. Revenue, profit and EPS growth are shrinking: revenue growth is −1.0% in the latest quarter, against +17.2% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE falling at 18.6%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does Linc earn on its capital? Linc Ltd earned a ROCE of 19% in FY26. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 0.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 6.1% net margin and 1.52× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 6.1% net margin × 1.52× asset turnover × 1.38× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 12.8% 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: 11.7% − 12.0% = −0.3 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. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 11.7% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 12.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Linc have too much debt? Linc Ltd has total debt of ₹27.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹260 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.10× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.02 in FY22 to 0.10 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Linc shareholding pattern? Promoters raised their stake in Linc Ltd by 1.5 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Promoters now own 61.0% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −0.4 points over the same period, to 0.0%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Promoters: +1.5 points over 8 quarters, to 61.0%; Domestic institutions: −0.4 points over 8 quarters, to 0.0%; Foreign institutions: −0.1 points over 8 quarters, to 0.9%. Why the owners changed: promoters drove it (+1.5 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is Linc from balance-sheet trouble? For Linc 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 Linc rank in its industry? 41.6 out of 100, rank 5 of 5 in Printing & Stationery, with 73% of the evidence available. Linc Ltd scores 41.6 out of 100 against the 5 companies it is compared with in Printing & Stationery, ranking 5. There is no relative-strength reading for this week, so the score is built from earnings, capital efficiency and valuation alone. The three scored parts add up to the total exactly: 11.5 + 19.4 + 10.7 = 41.6 (no relative-strength reading this week; its 20 points are shared across the other three). 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 Linc compared with? Linc ranks 5 of 5 Printing & Stationery companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 41.6 out of 100. 1.

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 Jun 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.
