A big indicator of a good moat is high gross margin. If you can put that up in comparision to its peers it should be interesting.

I think that the numbers are not correct. Money control does not calculate Gross margin as contribution but as operating margin and hence this comparison is not a clear picture. I think Pidilite should have a far higher Gross margin.

Hi Surjeet,
In my opinion, a high profit margin and high RONW are usually pretty good indicators of a wide moat. Pidilite is definitely a wide moat company. But never over pay, because if you do, though the company you buy may have a wide moat, your investment itself will not give you above average returns. Hope this helps..

Further, they have got into certain capex expansions..which is unfruitful in recent times. Plus, their future growth now depends upon infra......which is cyclical.....
