What CIE Automotive India does

Forging and machining auto-components maker in India, part of Spain's CIE Automotive group (formerly Mahindra Forgings).

Makes forged and machined parts to customers' drawings for carmakers and truck makers, with steel costs largely passed on to buyers, so earnings follow vehicle production rather than parts pricing. Spain's CIE Automotive controls the company, which was formed from Mahindra's forgings business and CIE's Indian arm.

Questions

Who are CIE Automotive India's main competitors?
Named competitors: Bharat Forge (BHARATFORG.NS), Sansera Engineering (SANSERA.NS), CIE Automotive (parent) (CIE.MC). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes SEDEMAC Mechatronics (SEDEMAC.NS), Lingyun Industrial (600480.SS), Nexteer Automotive (1316.HK), Zhuzhou Times New Materials Technology (600458.SS), Dn Automotive (007340.KS), Tong Yang Industry (1319.TW).
Is CIE Automotive India expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 12.2× against a peer median of 14.7×, 9th cheapest of 18 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 9% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +9%, so the hurdle is -1 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has CIE Automotive India stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -26.4% against -19.5% for the median peer; over one year -19.5%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
