@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH Very^1000 different.
1. TAM: CS with its 30-60% market share has a far smaller TAM than TC. Tc Has single digit global market share. The picture is only getting started, here.
2.look at topline growth. 26% cagr for tatva pre covid, 22% including covid year. 14% for CS.
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH 3. TC has quantified it's durable competitive advantage. Takes competitors 3-7 years to get into supply chain of clients. I don't know this quantification for CS
4. Much larger capex for TC (70% expansion) compared to 30% for CS
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH 5. R&D spend is much higher for TC at around 1.7%. Guidance of 3-4% post commissioning of new R&D center.
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH 6. Given that current capacity utilization is lower for TC than cs expect higher operating leverage led margin improvement too for TC than CS.
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH 7. While clean science name us clean. It is tatva chintan that is the true clean science specchem in this comparison. Just see the end user industry application for TC compared to cs. Cs products are intermediates for pharma (dermatology, cough cyrup), food packaging etc...
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH Whereas tc products are used to reduce environment pollution from fossil fuel burning, cleaner and greener chemistry by reducing reactant usage, improving yields, reducing reaction time, and also used as electrolyte salts in batteries in EV and renewable energy storage.
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH After reading that description tell me:

Which is the true clean science company :)
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH But you won't find most twitter handles talk about this because of 2 reasons:
1. Herd mentality. I follow clean science because X is following clean science.
2. Name bias. I am so surprised but investors are into Company names 😅😅
3. Comparing priorities. Kahan tc kahan Zomato
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH Btw you might find that I said 2 then listed 3 reasons that is because I always seek to underpromise and overdeliver. 😀
@BarnwalAashish @itsTarH In short, pe ratio is not valuation:
Pe + industry structure + total addressable market + durable competitive advantages + growth rates + unit economics is valuation. :)

Tc is far far superior than cs as an investment right now. At least as per my framework. 🤷‍♀️

#AngelOne Q4 results are as per expectation & superb. My key takeaways from the investor presentation in this mini 🧵
1. SmartStore is the joker in the pack. If Angel can build a successful engagement based platform for the users. We also see that they have initiated regulatory approval for AMC already Image
2. Some Details on how they are developing the platform for educating traders. Discussion forums are the primary variable to track IMO. I am HOOKED to ValuePickr.com I came for the knowledge, but stayed for the community. Image

What company should i make my next company thread on?
1. Strides
2. Vaibhav Global
3. Tatva Chintan
Strides
A very misunderstood company with discernible change. Thanks to @itsTarH for bringing it on my radar. Lots of value unlocking opportunities like Stelis, injectables. Trading at a discount coz its getting valuation of the worst/most gruesome biz. Next 5 years will be very
@itsTarH Different than last 5 IMO. Even base biz (regulated markets) likely to do better, & as the promoter exits the valuations might improve. Branded biz in unregulated markets can provide stability to cashflow going forward.

Stelis has book value of 2500cr. Strides owns 33%

Here is a thread on understanding operating leverage.
But before that, leverage.
A lever can lift a large weight with help of a smaller weight because of the long arm. This is because of the balancing of torques. A small weight can lift a large weight. That is leverage.

This has actually been beautifully explained by Aditya Khemka sir in his 1.5 hour YouTube video :


Pharma is not 1 market : it is 4000 different molecules and markets. In some markets we are beginning b
to see china+1 play out. In some we have not.
In some, india has a cost competitive advantage and so we are able to take market share away from China.

In some we simply cannot compete with China and so china will gain market share.
As an example : laurus is not seeing any china+1 play out.

The more structural change to track is dependence on china for KSM is going down across the board.

Indian api makers are truly becoming attmanirbhar (or at least reducing china nirbharta).

Given the immense interest in this #investment #process thread about how to get investment ideas, thought of creating a logical follow-up 🧵

Given that I have an idea & some sense for valuation & growth, how do i construct a portfolio?

If you like the thread, plz RT.
First thing worth mentioning is that I am only describing my own process. Others can follow a different process which could work for them.

Opposite of a good idea can also be a good idea
Before understanding the process itself, it is important to understand the problems the process is being designed to solve for. What are the key hurdles or troubles I have faced in designing my PF.
