Financial Performance and Valuation Metrics
Over the past year, Venkys (India) has generated a return of -21.83%, contrasting with the Sensex’s positive return of 7.93% during the same period. The stock has consistently underperformed the BSE500 index across the last three annual periods, reflecting challenges in maintaining competitive growth.
Net sales have shown a compound annual growth rate of 4.02% over the last five years, while operating profit has averaged 18.67% during the same timeframe. Despite these figures, the company reported a net loss in the September quarter, with a PAT of Rs. -26.53 crores, representing a decline of 285.3% compared to the previous four-quarter average.
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) for the half-year period stands at 3.38%, the lowest recorded, while the inventory turnover ratio is at 12.78 times, also at a low point. Return on Equity (ROE) is reported at 1.6%, and the stock trades at a price-to-book value of 1.3, indicating a valuation premium relative to peers’ historical averages.
Shareholding and Market Position
Despite the company’s size, domestic mutual funds hold a minimal stake of just 0.01%. This limited exposure may reflect a cautious stance from institutional investors, potentially due to valuation concerns or business performance. The company maintains a low average debt-to-equity ratio, effectively at zero, which suggests a conservative capital structure with limited leverage.

The stock’s recent price action and fundamental data suggest that it is facing headwinds that have contributed to its decline to the 52-week low. The narrow trading range observed in recent sessions may indicate a period of consolidation or indecision among market participants.
