Ultracab Reports Strong Q3 Growth Amid Debt Servicing Challenges and Market Underperformance

Ultracab (India), a microcap player in the cable industry, has recently undergone an adjustment in its evaluation. The company reported notable financial metrics for the third quarter of FY24-25, showcasing a significant growth in net sales, which reached Rs 57.24 crore, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 159.59%.

The stock has also shown consistent underperformance against the benchmark, generating a return of -21.03% over the last year and lagging behind the BSE 500 in each of the past three annual periods.

The technical trend for Ultracab is currently sideways, indicating a lack of clear price momentum. The company's return on capital employed stands at 16.7, and it is trading at a discount compared to its historical valuations, suggesting an attractive valuation in the current market context.
