P/S Ratio

12.11x

Rich sales multiple

Price relative to revenue. Sales are much harder to accounting-fudge than earnings, so this is a trustworthy number — and it's often the only usable multiple for loss-making or early-stage companies where P/E doesn't exist. But revenue without margin means nothing on its own: always read it alongside net margin.

P/B Ratio

Below book value

Price versus net asset value on the balance sheet. Most meaningful for banks, NBFCs and asset-heavy businesses (manufacturing, real estate) where book value closely tracks real worth.

ROE

2.8%

Weak

Return on shareholder equity. High ROE is great — unless it is manufactured by heavy debt, so always read it next to ROA and D/E: high ROE with low ROA is the classic debt-trap pattern.

ROA

Modeled

2.7%

Asset-heavy / inefficient

Net Income / Total Assets — how efficiently the whole business converts its asset base into profit. Computed as ROE / (1 + D/E) when live data is unavailable. Only compare within the same industry: asset-light businesses (IT, services) will always show a structurally higher ROA than asset-heavy ones (steel, airlines, utilities) simply because they carry far less on the balance sheet to begin with, not because they're better run.

ROCE

Modeled

3.4%

Below cost of capital risk

Return on all capital employed (equity plus debt). The cleanest quality signal because debt cannot flatter it.

Debt / Equity

0.02x

Conservative balance sheet

Total liabilities divided by shareholders' equity — the broadest leverage measure. High leverage boosts ROE in good years and destroys it in bad ones.

0%

Full reinvestment — no dividend

Share of profit paid out as dividend. Above 100% means the company is funding the dividend from debt or reserves, not profit — a genuine red flag, not just 'high'. 30–60% is the classic sustainable balance; well below that usually just means a growth company reinvesting rather than anything wrong.

Operating Leverage

Modeled

1.17x

Low fixed-cost gearing

How much profit jumps for each 1% of extra sales — driven by how much of the cost base is fixed (rent, salaries) versus variable (raw materials). It's a double-edged sword: high fixed-cost businesses (manufacturing, airlines, software) see profit jump disproportionately as sales grow, but the same fixed costs turn a small sales dip into an outsized loss. That's also why these businesses tend to lead in a bull market and get hit hardest first when demand turns down.

Frequently asked questions about ZMULTIPU

How does DeepScreen analyze Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd?
DeepScreen uses a 13-factor valuation and quality model. The methodology explains the inputs, weighting and limitations; model output is analytical research, not a personalized investment recommendation.
What is ZMULTIPU's P/E ratio?
The latest provider-backed P/E available to DeepScreen is 29.9x. Compare it with the company's own historical range, sustainable earnings growth and close industry peers, using the same reporting period.
How should I assess Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd's profitability?
For Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd, the latest provider-backed snapshot shows the latest growth measure is -34.30%, net margin is 42.22%, ROE is 2.8%. Consistent profitability and healthy year-over-year growth should be confirmed over several reporting periods, with earnings reconciled to operating cash flow and one-off items removed from the analysis.
How much debt does Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd have?
The latest provider-backed debt-to-equity ratio is 0.02x. Total debt is approximately ₹1.03M, while cash is approximately ₹1.02M. Assess leverage together with interest expense, maturities and operating cash flow.
Is ZMULTIPU a buy?
DeepScreen provides research tools rather than a personalized recommendation. A decision should consider business quality, valuation, balance-sheet risk, disclosures, liquidity and your own objectives and risk tolerance.
How does the company make money?
Multipurpose Trading and Agencies Limited engages in the trade of securities in India. It is also involved in real estate and investment activities. The company was incorporated in 1979 and is based in New Delhi, India. This describes the company's disclosed business activity; for exact segment revenue, geography and customer concentration, use the latest annual report.
What is the company's competitive advantage (economic moat)?
Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd's potential moat should be evaluated from observable business economics: scale or cost advantages, network effects, switching costs, brand strength, patents or licences, distribution advantages and barriers to entry. The strongest evidence is a durable combination of pricing power, stable/growing margins and returns on capital over many years; a high ROE or ROCE alone does not prove a moat.
Who are the main competitors, and how does the company differ from them?
DeepScreen's directory-based comparison candidates include ASIANHOTNR (Asian Hotels (North) Limited), PRSMJOHNSN (PRISM JOHNSON LIMITED.), KIDUJA (Kiduja India Ltd), SEASONST (Seasons Textiles Ltd), KAKTEX (Kakatiya Textiles Ltd.). Sector labels and market-cap proximity can use inferred or modeled directory inputs; these candidates are not a verified list of direct competitors; the direct comparison should use products, customers, geography, margins, growth, returns on capital and valuation.
Are its products or services in long-term demand?
The provider classifies Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd in Capital Markets. Long-term demand is supported when the underlying industry, customer base and product/service use remain durable over multiple years. For Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd, test that through multi-year revenue and customer trends, retention/repeat purchases where applicable, pricing power, capacity utilisation and the risk of substitution or technological disruption.
Who are its primary customers (individuals, businesses, or government)?
The provider's business profile describes Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd's activities as follows: Multipurpose Trading and Agencies Limited engages in the trade of securities in India. It is also involved in real estate and investment activities. The company was incorporated in 1979 and is based in New Delhi, India. Customer mix itself is not a stock-market ratio, so the primary customers should be confirmed from the company's segment, geographic and customer disclosures.
Is the company consistently profitable, and is its revenue growing year-over-year?
For Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd, the latest provider-backed snapshot shows the latest growth measure is -34.30%, net margin is 42.22%, ROE is 2.8%. Consistent profitability and healthy year-over-year growth should be confirmed over several reporting periods, with earnings reconciled to operating cash flow and one-off items removed from the analysis.
Does the company generate positive, healthy free cash flow?
Free cash flow should be assessed as operating cash flow minus capital expenditure and then tested for consistency across several periods. A positive single-period result is not enough to establish healthy cash generation.
How high are the company's debt levels compared to its cash holdings and earnings?
The current snapshot shows D/E of 0.02x, debt of roughly ₹1.03M, cash of roughly ₹1.02M, implying net debt of about ₹12,000. The full debt burden should be compared with EBITDA/EBIT, interest expense, maturities and recurring free cash flow.
How will the company finance its future growth or expansion projects?
Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd currently has reported cash of about ₹1.02M. Those internal resources can contribute to expansion, while additional funding can come from operating cash flow, debt, equity issuance, asset sales or project finance. The exact funding mix for a specific project must come from management's disclosed plans.
What is the company's historical Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)?
The latest snapshot reports ROE of 2.8%no current live ROCE. Historical quality should be judged from a multi-year series and by checking whether returns remain above the company's cost of capital through different business conditions.
Who are the promoters or top executives running the company, and what is their track record?
The current provider profile lists these senior executives: Mr. Ashish Singh (Chairman of the Board & MD); Ms. Kalpana Singh (Woman Executive Director); Mr. Rajesh Kumar Choudhary (Chief Financial Officer); Mr. Jitendra Kumar Chaurasia (Company Secretary, Compliance Officer & Grievance Officer). Track record should be assessed through capital-allocation decisions, operating results, governance disclosures and execution against stated targets. For Indian companies, promoter identity and ownership should be checked against the latest exchange shareholding filing.
Is a high percentage of the promoter's stake pledged as collateral for loans?
Promoter pledge is a shareholding-disclosure item, not a normal valuation ratio. For an Indian company, check the latest exchange shareholding pattern and notes for pledged/encumbered promoter shares, and compare the percentage with prior quarters to identify changes. Do not infer pledge levels from debt-to-equity.
Does management have a transparent and honest history of communication with shareholders?
The strongest evidence is consistency between what management says and what later appears in reported results: guidance versus delivery, explanations for misses, treatment of related parties, restatements, capital allocation and disclosure of material risks. A multi-year record is needed; tone alone is not a reliable measure of transparency.
Has the firm ever faced corporate governance issues, legal troubles, or accounting scandals?
This question requires a dated event history. Review regulator orders, exchange notices, audited-report qualifications, court records and reputable reporting, and distinguish allegations or investigations from settlements and established findings. The absence of a warning label on a stock page is not proof that no historical event ever occurred.
Is the current stock valuation (such as the P/E or P/S ratio) reasonable or overpriced?
The latest provider-backed P/E is 29.9x and P/S is 12.11x . These are descriptive multiples, not conclusions by themselves. A defensible valuation assessment compares the multiple with sustainable growth, margins, ROE/ROCE, balance-sheet risk, cyclicality and direct peers.
How does the company's valuation compare to its direct industry peers?
A practical peer set for Multipurpose Trading & Agencies Ltd starts with ASIANHOTNR (Asian Hotels (North) Limited), PRSMJOHNSN (PRISM JOHNSON LIMITED.), KIDUJA (Kiduja India Ltd), SEASONST (Seasons Textiles Ltd), KAKTEX (Kakatiya Textiles Ltd.). Compare the same reporting-period P/E, P/S and positive EV/EBITDA only when EBITDA supports a meaningful multiple, then adjust for growth, margin quality, leverage and business mix; a lower positive multiple is not automatically cheaper on an economic-value basis.
What is the margin of safety if market conditions or the economy worsens?
Margin of safety is created by buying with a gap between conservative intrinsic value and market price, then stress-testing the downside case. The relevant stress tests are lower revenue/earnings growth, lower margins, higher funding costs, weaker working capital and a lower terminal valuation. There is no universal fixed percentage that applies to every company.
Does the company pay a reliable dividend, or does it aggressively buy back its own shares?
The current provider-backed dividend yield is not available and payout ratio is 0.00% . Dividend reliability should be checked across several years and against free cash flow, while buyback intensity should be verified from share-count changes, treasury-share activity and cash-flow statements. A one-year yield cannot establish a durable shareholder-distribution policy.
