Growth Rate
AI Analysis — Bull vs Bear
Maruti Suzuki India Ltd commands a market cap of ₹3,91,871 Cr at a P/E of 27.5x and P/B of 3.68x. The company has delivered strong 5-year profit CAGR of 27% and TTM sales growth of 27%, though the stock has declined 19% over the past year and TTM profit growth has turned marginally negative at -1%.
- Virtually debt-free balance sheet provides financial flexibility and resilience through economic cycles, keeping interest costs negligible
- Strong 5-year compounded profit growth of 27% CAGR significantly outpaces 10-year profit CAGR of 12%, indicating an acceleration in earnings power
- TTM revenue growth of 27% demonstrates robust top-line momentum and sustained demand for the company's vehicle portfolio
- 3-year ROE of 16% and 5-year ROE of 14% reflect consistently healthy capital efficiency and improving return profile
- Healthy dividend payout ratio of 29.5% with a current yield of 1.11% signals shareholder-friendly capital allocation
- 3-year compounded sales CAGR of 16% and 10-year sales CAGR of 12% demonstrate durable long-term revenue expansion
- 10-year stock CAGR of 9% and 5-year stock CAGR of 12% indicate the company has generated meaningful long-term wealth despite recent weakness
- Market cap of ₹3,91,871 Cr makes it one of India's largest auto companies, providing scale advantages in procurement, distribution and brand recognition
- TTM compounded profit growth has turned negative at -1%, suggesting margin pressure or rising costs are eroding the recent earnings trajectory
- Stock has declined 19% over the past 1 year, significantly underperforming the broader market and its own long-term CAGR of 9-12%
- P/E of 27.5x is elevated for an automobile manufacturer, leaving limited margin of safety if growth slows further
- P/B ratio of 3.68x implies the market is pricing in substantial future growth; any disappointment could compress this multiple
- Last year ROE of 14% has dipped below the 3-year average of 16%, suggesting returns on equity may be plateauing or declining
- Dividend yield of 1.11% is modest relative to the P/E of 27.5x, meaning investors are largely dependent on capital appreciation for returns
- 10-year compounded profit CAGR of 12% versus 5-year CAGR of 27% shows much of the profit acceleration is recent and may not be sustainable over full cycles
- Widening gap between TTM sales growth of 27% and TTM profit growth of -1% signals significant cost or margin headwinds that revenue growth alone is not offsetting
