Here’s a challenge. Using the five clues below, identify the company that is being talked about here.
1 Though I have completed 20 years of listing, I have been around for almost 50 years. I carry the name of my home city in my corporate identity.
2 My founder is well qualified in my industry with IIT Kanpur credentials and continues to serve as my MD.
3 I am a small-cap stock despite being a global leader in my niche, with a presence in more than 100 countries across five continents.
4 I earn more than ₹1-crore profit before tax per employee, unusual for a manufacturing business. Less than 1 per cent of my 1,300 employees and 2,200 workers are women.
5 I have 50,000-plus shareholders, yet over 98 per cent of ownership is held by fewer than 300 shareholders, even after my stock delivering 15-plus per cent CAGR over three, five and 10 years.
