Ramkrishna Forgings is on one of our India lists: Momentum stocks. [Momentum stocks Market cap cr: 12918.040655433608](https://www.sectoralpha.in/momentum-stocks-india) ## Is Ramkrishna Forgings profitable? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd earned ₹71.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹72.0 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 2.7% a year on average. That is 5.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹10.0 Cr. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹72.0 Cr (−82.7% on the year before). On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +62.1% and revenue +26.4%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra rupee of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Ramkrishna Forgings make, and is it growing? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd reported ₹1,405 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +54.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 16.7% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹4,238 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹4,938 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹4,238 Cr, +5.1% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +26.4% on average, against 16.7% 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 +25.2%, against +11.3% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −15.7%, against −26.5% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Ramkrishna Forgings keep? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd's operating margin was 18.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 5.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 14.0% and 22.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +5.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +2.3 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Ramkrishna Forgings' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 192% of Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹840 Cr of operating cash against ₹72.0 Cr of profit. After ₹942 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹102 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 192% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 80 days shorter between FY21 and FY26, so cash that used to wait in the business now arrives sooner. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 3.7× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Ramkrishna Forgings' cash go? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 86 days in FY26, down from 166 days in FY21. It spent ₹3,176 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 68 days to pay, and stock sits for 211 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹4,238 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹11.6 Cr, so roughly ₹999 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 68 days to pay and stock sat for 211 days, about 6.9 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 86 days, shorter than FY21's 166. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 211 days. Customers pay about 68 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 193 days. Together that makes the 86-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹3,176 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹861 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 ₹337 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 Ramkrishna Forgings' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd's P/E is 65.8×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 79% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 32.5×, 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. The P/E here, and its history, use a profit figure that can leave out one-off items, so it can differ from a P/E worked out on the quarterly results. Those results' earnings per share for the four quarters to Sep 2026 add up to ₹10.20. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −82.8% while the price moved +27.3%. 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 +26.9% a year; about +7.5% a year came from earnings growth and about +19.4 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more); over 10 years the price moved +26.4% a year; about +10.7% a year came from earnings growth and about +15.7 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). 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. The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## Is the Ramkrishna Forgings business getting better or worse? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd's business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −15.7% in the latest quarter, against +32.5% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE falling at 6.0%. This is based on 9 quarters of 4 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Ramkrishna Forgings earn on its capital? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd earned a ROCE of 6% in FY26. That is up from a low of 5% in FY14. We cannot compare its return on capital used with its cost of capital from the data we have. It comes from a 1.7% net margin and 0.59× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 1.7% net margin × 0.59× asset turnover × 2.18× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 2.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The quarterly return lines and the return-on-capital-used (ROIC) line, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## Does Ramkrishna Forgings have too much debt? Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd had ₹2,449 Cr of borrowings against ₹3,290 Cr of equity in FY26, so its debt is 0.74× its equity. Its operating profit is 3 times its interest bill. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹1,233 Cr to ₹2,449 Cr. Over the last 3 of those years it spent ₹3,176 Cr on assets. Part of the spending on assets is being paid for with borrowed money. The total-debt and debt-to-equity series, which only the second data source has, are not shown on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 372% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. When two sources disagree on a figure, we leave it out on purpose. The gap is a choice, not missing data. ## What is the Ramkrishna Forgings shareholding pattern? Foreign institutions cut their stake in Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd by 7.2 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Foreign institutions now own 17.1% of the company. Promoters moved −2.3 points over the same period, to 40.9%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: −7.2 points over 8 quarters, to 17.1%; Promoters: −2.3 points over 8 quarters, to 40.9%; Domestic institutions: +0.6 points over 8 quarters, to 5.7%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions drove it (−7.2 points), together with promoters (−2.3 points). They reduced their stake. ## How far is Ramkrishna Forgings from balance-sheet trouble? For Ramkrishna Forgings 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 Ramkrishna Forgings rank in its industry? 48.4 out of 100, rank 11 of 20 in Castings, Forgings & Fastners, with 67% of the evidence available. Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd scores 48.4 out of 100 against the 20 companies it is compared with in Castings, Forgings & Fastners, ranking 11. 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: 21.1 + 7.5 + 9.2 + 10.6 = 48.4. 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 Ramkrishna Forgings compared with? Ramkrishna Forgings ranks 11 of 20 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 48.4 out of 100. 1.

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.
