Was the rally earned?
Mostly yes, with a catch.
- Per-share earnings added 93 points, but investors now pay less per rupee of profit (P/E 46.3x to 20.9x), which took 83 points back.
- The share count rose 6%.
Both mattered.
- Per-share earnings added 26 points and the multiple added 26 points (P/E 16.9x to 20.9x).
- The share count rose 11%.
Both mattered.
- Per-share earnings added 47 points and the multiple added 36 points (P/E 16.2x to 20.9x).
- The share count fell 5%.
What do "pts" mean?
"pts" are percentage points of the share price return. The parts add up to the total shown for each period. Because price = P/E × net profit ÷ share count, higher profit pushes the price up, a higher P/E pushes it up, and more shares push it down.
Example: if the price rose 34% and profit growth accounts for +58 pts while a lower P/E accounts for -24 pts, then 58 - 24 = 34. The +58 is not the profit growth rate itself: it is the part of the price move that profit growth explains.
Net profit is trailing twelve months as reported with a 60-day lag.

Shaded band: 10th to 90th percentile of the company's own P/E history; dotted line: its median; orange line: sector median (companies with a positive multiple, at least 5 in the sector).
Sector figures are built from today's listed companies, so they exclude companies that are no longer listed.
Where does it rank among Non-Energy Minerals peers?
Each cell is the company's percentile rank among its Non-Energy Minerals peers (non-financial companies) that month.
Darker is better-ranked.
Rows marked ↓ are inverted (lower debt, shorter cash cycle and a lower P/E rank higher).

What is the price implying?
At normalised P/E (five-year average earnings) of 20.0x, a holder earning 12%/yr needs earnings to grow about 12.2%/yr for 10 years, then trade at 15x.
Over time
Implied growth by month (solid) and delivered growth (dashed).

- Jan 2022Price implied 15%/yr; EPS has since grown 5%/yr (5.0 yrs)
Past comparisons cover only companies listed today (survivorship bias) and say nothing about future outcomes.
