Market cap: ₹12,000 – 13,000 crores.
Valuation metrics:
P/E ≈ 28 × (per Screener)
P/B (price-to-book) 5-6× per some reports.
ROCE 16.6% and ROE 17.7%
Strengths:
Decent profitability metrics (ROCE/ROE above typical thresholds) which suggest efficient capital use.
Operates in agribusiness / feed / crop protection – segments with some structural tailwinds in India (e.g., rising agricultural input demand, food processing growth).
A fairly diversified business model within the agribusiness space.
Weaknesses / Risks:
Growth (sales) appears weak or sluggish. 6% CAGR over 5 years is low for a growth-oriented investment.
Screener
Valuation appears somewhat elevated relative to underlying growth — the company is trading at a premium relative to what some fair value models suggest. For example, one model estimates intrinsic value ₹480-₹500 per share (vs current ₹650+).
Technicals are weak — suggesting limited upside in the short term and risk of further downside.
External/industry risks: agribusiness is exposed to commodity cycles, input cost inflation, monsoon/seasonality in India which can impact margins.
