Dhabriya Polywood 500 cr maker of building materials and interior solutions. 35x return since listing and I think it can continue to compound nicely. Valuations undemanding at 15x pe ttm. Good results and H2 will be stronger with new products coming online.

Take a moment to appreciate the incredible detail on this lathe-turned pillar in India. I’d give almost anything to go back in time and see how this was made.

Diligently following up with low-level babus to get back in the government’s “good books”. I voted for them twice. We pay a huge amt of tax in this country. I never understood single issue voters earlier, but maybe I understand them now. #SIR
PSA - pls check your name exists in electoral rolls online much before any election. Checked yesterday and found my entire family’s names were deleted in Feb SIR. No notice or explanation given.

It’s awesome to sometimes see SMEs who have spent 10-20-30 yrs slowly building their biz see such an inflection in growth post listing. It’s as if they were stuck driving in the gullies of small business, and then finally get a big beautiful highway to drive fast on 🏎️

V Marc India #HarResultKuchKehtaHai #GOOD EBITDA grew 77.46% YoY to ₹87.89 Cr as installed capacity reached 260,000 KM 👉 This business is rapidly scaling its cable production out of Haridwar as newly added lines begin shipping dispatches. Revenue reached ₹719.85 Cr for the quarter, reflecting substantial physical volume growth across both domestic distribution networks and foreign buyers. 👉 Operating earnings kept pace with dispatches, delivering EBITDA of ₹87.89 Cr. Profitability remained steady because an inventory build helped balance higher raw material usage during the period, allowing core operating margins to hold firm rather than thinning out under higher factory activity. 👉 The strain appears in the cash flow statement. Operations saw a cash outflow of ₹45.67 Cr during the first half because customer receivables and warehouse stock tied up significant capital, forcing the company to lean on bank loans to fund ongoing operations. 👉 Near-term production visibility gets direct support from the ₹100.74 Cr order from Purvanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam, scheduled for completion by January. The key thing to watch next is whether customer collections pick up fast enough to convert these higher shipments into actual cash. 👉 Growth catalyst: The ₹100.74 Cr order from Purvanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam for high-tension cables must be completed by January 2027, bringing confirmed manufacturing dispatches over the next quarter 👉 Road blocker: Operations used ₹45.67 Cr of cash during the first half as ₹488.84 Cr was locked in inventory, expanding total borrowings to ₹359.82 Cr with no date given for cash conversion Public NSE/BSE filings · Not Investment Advice #VMARCIND #Q2FY27 #StockMarket #Earnings

#Q2FY27 Observation: Indian largecaps, midcaps, smallcaps, microcaps, SMEs are absolutely smashing sixes after sixes this earnings season Many blockbuster/Very Good results in Q2FY27 Usually, Q2 is considered as lean quarter for Indian corporates Record numbers everywhere despite higher RM costs and inflationary pressure Must say, Indian companies have managed these challenges very well till now And also balance sheet for most of the companies is very very healthy despite taking up huge capex Amazing #Q2FY27 with almost 85% companies that have reported numbers already and I'm sure another 15% will deliver great numbers too More power to Indian corporates 👏👏

“you cannot put the genie back in the bottle” 💯
How can democrats slow down AI progress unilaterally by slowing build out of data centres- what about China? Do they cede their number 1 rank to China in this field? You cannot put the genie back in the bottle.

Pivoting from AI stocks to IT stocks is an extremely lazy trade There’s a whole wide world of stocks offering good earnings growth . Sometimes it’s best to park certain themes in the “too hard” bucket and look elsewhere

The ideal passive portfolio is a broad collection of highly asymmetric long-term bets.

Durlax Top. On my watchlist, they posted huge profit in Q2. This was an avoid for me due to red flags below. Promoter interview on YT also very unconvincing. 75 cr debt 110 cr receivables 50 cr pref to promoter -> 25% dilution after huge OFS + rights issue This stock stinks 💩
Durlax Top Surface Avoid : Reasons as per my understanding >> 1) Big OFS by the promoter - 30% of the total proceeds . Promoter holding to be reduced to 50% post issue from 95% Big dilution. 2) Contingent liability of total 7 cr is a big issue as they had export obligations for imported machinery which they have not adhered to . 3) Cash flows last year is screwed - 60 cr debt. D/E at 2.6 Whopping receivables . Sales seems like forced dumping to distributors. Balance Sheet seems stressed 4) Out of 28 cr of gross proceeds 5 cr is issue expense 5) Total number of distributors reduced from 23 to 16 even though the company says that its is growing fast. Doesn't sync . #IPO #durlax #SMEs

Gov has put out a detailed note on the Critical Mineral Processing scheme. Connecting the dots for Taurian MPS. The projects are large enough to create meaningful business for Taurian in the FY28/29 timeframe.
Taurian update on new gov scheme opportunity From my POV, this supports the long term story for Taurian. One more data pt - last yr they poached the sales head of Propel who grew sales from 300cr to 1500cr there. Opportunity is large, today they are only at 100 cr topline.
