Yes. Sundaram Clayton Ltd paid out 4% of its profit as dividends in FY26, and it paid a dividend in 1 of its last 8 reported years. 2 of those years show a negative figure because profit itself was negative.

From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 5 November 2026.

Sundaram Clayton is on one of our India lists: 52 week high & low.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd posted a net loss of ₹59.0 Cr in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹252 Cr. Over 9 years profit has grown −8.3% a year on average. That loss is 10.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹58.0 Cr. 10 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd reported ₹592 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +15.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 9 years it has grown −19.8% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,026 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,106 Cr.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

FY26 revenue was ₹2,026 Cr, −10.3% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −3.4% on average, against −19.8% 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 −3.9%, against +3.1% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over).

Sundaram Clayton Ltd's operating margin was 2.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.2 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 years it has been between 2.2% and 12.0%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period.

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

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −3.6 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged.

Over the last 3 years, 81% of Sundaram Clayton Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 its operations used ₹4.0 Cr of cash, against ₹252 Cr of profit. After ₹264 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹268 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why 81% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 27 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 2.5× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 67 days in FY26, down from 94 days in FY21. It spent ₹1,193 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 66 days to pay, and stock sits for 164 days on average.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

At FY26 sales of ₹2,026 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹5.6 Cr, so roughly ₹372 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

FY26: customers took 66 days to pay and stock sat for 164 days, about 5.4 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 67 days, shorter than FY21's 94.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 164 days. Customers pay about 66 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 163 days. Together that makes the 67-day cycle.

Spending on assets: ₹1,193 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹482 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 ₹49.0 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.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd has no P/E right now, because its earnings are negative. The revenue and margin sections are where a turn would show first. Measured against sales instead, the market values Sundaram Clayton Ltd at 1.1× its FY26 revenue of ₹2,026 Cr. The P/E comes back here once profit turns positive.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee of yearly profit.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 9 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction.

One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result.

There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the share price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd earned a ROCE of −3% in FY26. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 14.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 12.4% net margin and 0.62× asset turnover (sales divided by assets).

Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it, from shareholders and lenders together. It is the best single test of whether growth adds value or just size.

Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 12.4% net margin × 0.62× asset turnover × 2.53× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 19.5% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it.

The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −2.3% − 12.0% = −14.3 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.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd has total debt of ₹1,298 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,295 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 1.00× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 2.38 in FY24 to 1.00 in FY26. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page.

Debt-to-equity shows how much of the business is paid for with borrowed money. Lower is safer, and the direction matters as much as the level.

Promoters cut their stake in Sundaram Clayton Ltd by 8.4 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Promoters now own 59.1% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +7.9 points over the same period, to 20.6%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings.

Who owns the company each quarter: promoters (the founders or controlling owners), foreign institutions, domestic institutions such as mutual funds, and the public. When people close to the business steadily raise their stake, that is worth noticing; a quiet list is also an answer.

Over the last two years: Promoters: −8.4 points over 8 quarters, to 59.1%; Domestic institutions: +7.9 points over 8 quarters, to 20.6%; Foreign institutions: +0.4 points over 8 quarters, to 0.9%.

Why the owners changed: promoters drove it (−8.4 points), with the other side taken by domestic institutions (+7.9 points). They reduced their stake.

For Sundaram Clayton 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.

The Z-score estimates how far a company is from balance-sheet trouble. Above about 3 is safe; below about 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not used for banks and lenders.

30.1 out of 100, rank 17 of 20 in Castings, Forgings & Fastners, with 71% of the evidence available.

Sundaram Clayton Ltd scores 30.1 out of 100 against the 20 companies it is compared with in Castings, Forgings & Fastners, ranking 17. 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: 16 + 0 + 11.5 + 2.6 = 30.1. 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.

Sundaram Clayton ranks 17 of 20 Castings, Forgings & Fastners companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 30.1 out of 100.

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.
