West Coast Paper Mills is on one of our India lists: Momentum stocks.

West Coast Paper Mills Ltd earned ₹142 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +136.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹156 Cr. Over 8 years profit has grown −4.4% a year on average. That is 13.5% of the quarter's revenue.

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

The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹60.0 Cr.

For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹156 Cr (−53.6% on the year before).

Why profit moved: revenue changed +10.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved +7.0 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +2.7% and revenue +7.9%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth.

West Coast Paper Mills Ltd reported ₹1,051 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +10.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 8 years it has grown 12.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹4,279 Cr.

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

The last four reported quarters add to ₹4,375 Cr.

FY26 revenue was ₹4,279 Cr, +5.3% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +7.9% on average, against 12.1% 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 +7.8%, against +1.2% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −13.1%, against −38.5% a year (accelerating).

West Coast Paper Mills Ltd's operating margin was 19.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 7.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 9 years it has been between 10.0% and 33.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

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 +7.8 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +6.6 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged.

Over the last 3 years, 99% of West Coast Paper Mills Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹400 Cr of operating cash against ₹156 Cr of profit.

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.

After ₹422 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹22.0 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 99% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 11 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 2.2× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building.

West Coast Paper Mills Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 109 days in FY26, up from 98 days in FY21. It spent ₹1,401 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 33 days to pay, and stock sits for 113 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 ₹4,279 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹11.7 Cr, so roughly ₹1,278 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

FY26: customers took 33 days to pay and stock sat for 113 days, about 3.7 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 109 days, longer than FY21's 98.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 113 days. Customers pay about 33 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 37 days. Together that makes the 109-day cycle.

Spending on assets: ₹1,401 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹643 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 ₹290 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.

West Coast Paper Mills Ltd's P/E is 21.2×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 86% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 7.7×, over 8.3 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

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.
