Ritesh International Reports Q2 FY24 Growth Amid Long-Term Financial Concerns

Ritesh International, a microcap company in the chemicals industry, has recently undergone an adjustment in evaluation that reflects its current market standing. The company reported positive financial performance for the second quarter of FY24, with net sales for the first nine months reaching Rs 76.92 crore, marking a growth of 25.46%. Additionally, the profit after tax for the same period was recorded at Rs 0.36 crore, while the profit before depreciation, interest, and taxes hit a quarterly high of Rs 0.64 crore.
Despite these positive indicators, the company's long-term fundamental strength appears to be weak, as evidenced by an average Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of 13.42%.
