Financial Performance and Growth Trends
Over the last five years, Bhansali Engineering Polymers has recorded a compound annual growth rate in net sales of 7.58%. However, recent quarterly figures show a decline in net sales to Rs.325.10 crores, reflecting an 11.40% reduction compared to previous periods. This contraction in sales has coincided with a fall in profits by 7.6% over the past year.
Operating cash flow for the fiscal year has been reported at Rs.108.75 crores, which is the lowest level recorded in recent years. Additionally, the company’s debtors turnover ratio for the half-year stands at 0.57 times, indicating slower collection efficiency relative to historical norms.
Dividend Yield and Valuation Metrics
Despite the price decline, Bhansali Engineering Polymers offers a relatively high dividend yield of 4.31% at the current share price. The company’s return on equity (ROE) is reported at 16%, which remains an attractive figure within the specialty chemicals sector. The stock trades at a price-to-book value of 2.2, suggesting a valuation discount compared to its peers’ historical averages.
Shareholding and Market Capitalisation
The company’s market capitalisation is graded at level 3, reflecting its mid-sized presence in the market. Domestic mutual funds hold a minimal stake of 0.01%, which may indicate limited institutional engagement or a cautious stance towards the stock at current valuations.
Debt Profile and Financial Stability
Bhansali Engineering Polymers maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio, effectively at zero, underscoring a conservative capital structure with limited reliance on external borrowings. This financial positioning may provide some stability amid fluctuating market conditions.

While the Sensex has been supported by mega-cap stocks and sustained bullish momentum, Bhansali Engineering Polymers has faced headwinds that have weighed on its share price and financial results.
Sector and Industry Context
Operating within the specialty chemicals sector, Bhansali Engineering Polymers competes in a market segment characterised by fluctuating raw material costs and demand variability. The sector itself has seen mixed performance, with some companies benefiting from global supply chain adjustments and others facing pressure from input cost inflation and subdued end-market demand.

Financial indicators show a contraction in sales and profits over recent quarters, alongside a conservative debt profile and moderate ROE.
The broader market environment remains positive, with the Sensex near its 52-week high and supported by strong performances from mega-cap stocks. This divergence highlights the specific challenges faced by Bhansali Engineering Polymers within its sector and market segment.
