Before we get into today’s stock, let me set some context regarding my research objectives. I do a weekly exercise to study and learn the business of one stock as part of my research activities as a SEBI registered RA. The primary objective is to understand the business in the context of its consistent performance over the last 5 years. Most of the research below is knowledge derived from the past Annual Reports and recent Quarterly Investor presentations. I am not an expert in this domain or industry. And more importantly, this is not a recommendation to buy the stock nor a thesis for a multibagger opportunity.
