By Mill Chart

Last update: Jun 9, 2025

DR. REDDY'S LABORATORIES stock chart

Why RDY Fits the GARP Approach

  • Strong Historical Growth: RDY has delivered a 5-year average EPS growth of 23.6%, comfortably within Lynch’s preferred range of 15-30%. This suggests sustainable expansion without excessive risk.
  • Attractive Valuation: With a PEG ratio (past 5 years) of 0.83, the stock compensates for its growth, trading below the Lynch threshold of 1. This indicates the market may not be fully pricing in its growth potential.
  • Healthy Financials: The company maintains a conservative debt profile, with a Debt/Equity ratio of 0.02, well below the screen’s 0.6 limit. Its Current Ratio of 1.92 also reflects solid short-term liquidity.
  • Profitability: RDY’s Return on Equity (ROE) of 16.8% exceeds the 15% minimum Lynch favored, highlighting efficient use of shareholder capital.

Fundamental Snapshot

Our full analysis rates RDY a 6/10, noting standout profitability and financial health. Margins are industry-leading, with a 17.3% net profit margin outperforming 91% of peers. However, future EPS growth is projected to slow (-2.1%), warranting further research into the company’s pipeline and competitive positioning.

Final Thoughts

For investors applying a disciplined GARP strategy, RDY presents a compelling case with its balance of growth, valuation, and financial strength. As always, deeper due diligence is recommended.
