There’s something fascinating (and a bit crazy) when you compare Zomato with Coal India. 👉 Zomato’s market cap is higher than Coal India’s! Zomato Market Cap = ₹2.83 Tn Coal India Market Cap = ₹2.56 Tn 👉 But here’s the twist: Coal India pays more in dividends than Zomato earns in total revenue! Coal India Dividend 2024 = ₹15,600 Cr Zomato Revenue 2024 = ₹12,000 Cr 👉 Even more interesting? Zomato’s entire annual revenue is almost equal to the income tax Coal India pays in a year! Coal India Income Tax 2024 = ₹11,400 Cr Zomato Revenue 2024 = ₹12,000 Cr What’s the big takeaway here? 1️⃣ Boring businesses that aren’t in the consumer spotlight often generate way more profit than the so-called “sexy” ones. 2️⃣ Narratives and marketing can sometimes drive valuations far beyond the business’s financial fundamentals. Coal might be old-school and not a consumer favorite, while Zomato represents the “futuristic, digital economy.” But the numbers don’t lie: profits and value often hide in the businesses we overlook. So the next time you look at valuations, ask yourself—what’s real, and what’s just good storytelling?
