Business Overview and Revenue Trends
Star Cement Ltd operates in the cement industry and has demonstrated a robust revenue trajectory over the years. The company reported sales of ₹2,705 Cr for the financial year ending March 2023, reflecting a growth from ₹2,222 Cr in March 2022. The upward trend continued with revenue recorded at ₹2,911 Cr for March 2024 and a further increase to ₹3,163 Cr for March 2025. The trailing twelve-month (TTM) revenue stood at ₹3,494 Cr, indicating a strong performance in recent periods. Quarterly sales figures varied, with the highest quarterly sales of ₹914 Cr recorded in March 2024. However, the most recent quarter, September 2023, saw a decline to ₹585 Cr, suggesting potential fluctuations in demand. Overall, while the company has shown strong annual growth, the quarterly variations highlight the need for strategic management to stabilize revenue streams during lower demand periods.
Profitability and Efficiency Metrics
Star Cement Ltd’s profitability metrics reflect a mixed performance. The company reported an operating profit margin (OPM) of 25% as of the latest data, showcasing its ability to maintain profitability despite fluctuating revenues. The net profit for March 2025 stood at ₹169 Cr, down from ₹295 Cr in March 2024, indicating a decline in profitability. The interest coverage ratio (ICR) was strong at 18.63x, suggesting that the company comfortably meets its interest obligations, which is favorable for operational stability. However, the return on equity (ROE) was reported at 6.05%, which is relatively low compared to typical sector benchmarks, highlighting potential concerns regarding capital efficiency. Additionally, the cash conversion cycle (CCC) stood at 173 days, indicating that the company’s cash flow management may require improvement to enhance operational efficiency and liquidity.
Balance Sheet Strength and Financial Ratios
Star Cement Ltd’s balance sheet shows a solid foundation with total assets reported at ₹4,107 Cr as of March 2025. The company’s total liabilities amounted to ₹4,107 Cr, which includes ₹643 Cr in borrowings, reflecting a manageable debt level with a total debt to equity ratio of 0.13. The reserves have steadily increased to ₹2,968 Cr, contributing positively to the company’s net worth. The book value per share has risen to ₹71.24, indicating an increase in shareholder equity. However, the return on capital employed (ROCE) dropped to 8%, which is lower than ideal, suggesting that the capital is not being utilized as effectively as it could be. Financial ratios such as the current ratio of 1.15 indicate adequate short-term liquidity, while the interest coverage ratio reflects strong creditor confidence in the company’s ability to service its debt.
Shareholding Pattern and Investor Confidence
The shareholding pattern of Star Cement Ltd indicates a stable ownership structure, with promoters holding 57.59% of the equity as of September 2025, a decrease from 67.03% in December 2022. This decline may raise questions regarding insider confidence. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) have gradually increased their stake to 2.96%, indicating growing interest from international investors. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) hold 4.38%, reflecting moderate institutional confidence. The public shareholding is at 35.07%, which is a healthy proportion, ensuring liquidity in the stock. The number of shareholders has increased significantly to 61,660, suggesting that retail interest in the stock is growing. Despite the declining promoter holding, the overall stability in shareholding indicates a level of confidence in the company’s long-term prospects.
Outlook, Risks, and Final Insight
Star Cement Ltd presents a mixed outlook characterized by both strengths and risks. The strengths include a solid revenue growth trajectory, a strong interest coverage ratio, and increasing reserves, which support its operational stability. However, risks such as declining profitability, fluctuating quarterly revenues, and relatively low ROE may hinder overall performance. The company’s ability to manage its cash conversion cycle effectively will be crucial in navigating potential liquidity challenges. Additionally, the declining promoter stake may affect investor confidence and market perception. In scenarios where the company can stabilize its revenue and improve profitability metrics, it may enhance its market position significantly. Conversely, failure to address these issues could lead to heightened investor caution and potential valuation pressures.
