At ₹252.95, Borosil is not a business I would buy today. The balance sheet is first-rate: debt-to-equity is only 0.09, and ROCE is 12.48%, so management has not leveraged up. Promoters own 64.62%, which aligns their interests with mine. But my job is to buy growing earning power at a sensible price, and here earning power is deteriorating. Sales growth is just 0.19%, and profit has fallen 24.04%. Return on equity is under 10%, which is ordinary for a houseware franchise, and the Piotroski F-score of 4 confirms a weak internal condition. The market is not being modest either: at a P/E of 36.28 and a P/B of 3.94 against book value of ₹64.13, I am paying for growth that simply is not visible. The PEG ratio of 190.95 tells me the current price cannot be justified by today's earnings, and with a dividend yield of zero, I receive no income while waiting. The latest quarter shows sales of ₹339 Cr but net profit of only ₹24 Cr, so there is no evidence of acceleration. Price is what you pay, value is what you get—and here the value is not clear. Trading at ₹252.95, well below the ₹397.95 high but still far above the ₹213.73 low, the stock is not cheap enough to compensate for flat sales and falling profit. This is a decent business with a manageable debt load and strong promoter holding, but it is a slow grower priced like a fast grower. I would wait for either a much lower price or clear evidence that profit margins and quarterly earnings are reviving before putting my money here.
