What Cupid does

Indian manufacturer of male and female condoms, lubricants and pregnancy test kits, largely sold via government/global tenders.

Most sales are won in competitive tenders from health ministries and international agencies buying condoms for public health programmes, so volumes are lumpy and depend on winning orders and keeping international quality approvals. Retail and export sales under its own labels are a smaller outlet.

In one line: A niche Indian condom/contraceptive manufacturer.

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).
