5 Stocks With Multibagger Potential for the Next 5 Years

#2 Narayana Hrudayalaya

Next on our list is Narayana Hrudayalaya.

Narayana Hrudayalaya operates a hospital model that is structurally different from most listed peers. Instead of chasing premium pricing, it focuses on high volumes, standardization and cost efficiency, especially in cardiac and complex procedures. This allows it to deliver relatively lower-cost care while still maintaining healthy returns.

In hospitals, margins don't just come from pricing. They come from utilization, case mix and operating discipline.

That is where Narayana's strategy sits. Higher realizations through better payer mix, increased share of high-end procedures and steady improvement in operational efficiency.

In Q3FY26, consolidated revenue grew 61% YoY, driven by India, Cayman and the consolidation of UK operations. EBITDA stood at Rs 3.9 bn with 18% margins.

The key trend is visible in the India business, where margins expanded by 150-200 bps YoY, led by better payer mix and higher-end procedures like robotic surgeries.

The interesting bit is not just growth, but what is driving it.

Cardiac remains the core, contributing roughly a third of revenues. However, oncology is now the fastest-growing segment and expected to become a meaningful contributor over time. At the same time, ARPOB (average revenue per bed) is improving, indicating better pricing power within the same model.

Going forward, the company is focussing on cluster-led expansion, especially in Bangalore and Kolkata, while building an integrated model across hospitals, clinics and insurance.

The playbook is simple. Improve case mix, increase realisations and drive utilisation.

The stock trades at 43x, which is a premium to its 5-year historical median of 38.

#3 Vishal Mega Mart

Third on the list is Vishal Mega Mart.

Vishal operates in a segment that is easy to understand but difficult to execute, which is value retail aimed at mass consumption, where growth depends less on pricing power and more on volumes, store expansion and tight control over costs. The model is built around making aspirational consumption affordable and in a market where income growth is uneven, that positioning tends to hold.

In Q3FY26, revenue grew 17% YoY, while EBITDA margins came in at a multi quarter high of 13%, up from 9% a year ago.

The more important number is same-store sales growth, which stood at 9-10%, indicating that growth is not just coming from store additions but also from higher throughput in existing stores.

What is driving this is fairly straightforward but execution-heavy.

A large part of growth is coming from gaining market share from unorganised retail. At the same time, ticket sizes are increasing and the product mix is improving, with higher-priced products growing faster than entry-level ones. This is not a temporary spike, but the result of better merchandising and gradual customer upgradation.

At the same time, the company is scaling aggressively, with 29 store additions in the quarter and 80 in 9MFY26, taking the total store count to 771 stores across 517 cities.

The interesting layer sits in the details.

Private labels now contribute around 75% of revenues, which supports margins, while quick commerce and loyalty programs are quietly strengthening customer stickiness and repeat purchases.

At 70x earnings, the stock is trading at a discount to its historical median.

#4 Syrma SGS Technology

Fourth on our list is Syrma SGS Technology.

Syrma SGS Technology is one of the larger ESDM players that has stayed focused on building capabilities rather than narrative. It builds and integrates electronic systems across automotive, industrial, healthcare and consumer segments, with a clear push towards higher-value products.

In EMS, scale helps, but margins improve only when the mix improves.

That is where Syrma's strategy sits; more exports, deeper ODM capabilities and a gradual move away from low-margin consumer electronics.

In Q3 FY26, sales grew 45% YoY, led by broad-based growth across segments. EBITDA margins came in at a multi quarter high of 13%, up from 9% a year ago. This was supported by higher export contribution, a better mix in industrial and healthcare and operating leverage from scale.

The interesting bit is not just growth, but where it is coming from.

Export revenue grew sharply and tends to carry better margins. At the same time, industrial and healthcare segments, which are structurally higher margin, are scaling faster than the rest. This indicates an improving revenue mix rather than just volume expansion.

Looking ahead, the company is adding capacity across locations and investing in a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing facility. This is expected to come online in phases over the next two years. Capex for the PCB business is planned at around Rs 3.6-4 bn in the first phase, with further investments linked to demand visibility.

The stock is trading at 65x, broadly in line with its long-term median of 65x.

#5 Eternal

Last on our list is Eternal.

Eternal is no longer just a food delivery business. It is gradually evolving into a broader consumption and logistics platform. The company sits at the intersection of demand aggregation and last-mile delivery, with multiple engines that operate at very different stages of maturity but are increasingly beginning to interact with each other.

In Q4FY26, revenue grew sharply by 196% YoY. EBITDA margins expanded to 2.8%, continuing a steady upward trajectory. This suggests that the business is moving past its most capital-intensive phase and into a more stable operating structure.

What stands out is not just growth, but the trade-offs being made to sustain it.

The food delivery business continues to act as a cash-generating core, with 18-19% NOV growth and 5.5% EBITDA margins. It is benefiting from a duopoly structure that allows for stable monetisation and predictable margins.

Meanwhile, quick commerce (Blinkit), which remains the most competitive segment, saw growth moderate to 8% QoQ, even as profitability turned positive. This indicates a clear shift in focus from aggressive market share capture to improving unit economics.

The optional businesses are beginning to scale as well, with the going-out segment growing at 46% YoY. Additionally, Hyperpure is moving closer to breakeven, adding incremental layers to the overall platform.

The underlying trend, however, is more nuanced, as user growth remains strong but frequency and basket sizes have softened. This suggests that competition is now playing out through customer behaviour rather than outright user acquisition.

Presently, the stock is trading at 93x EV/EBITDA.

Conclusion

Finding long-term winners is rarely about chasing visible growth.

Markets tend to reward companies that show momentum, with rising revenues, expanding segments and clear capacity addition plans. These signals are easy to spot and often get priced in quickly.

But sustained wealth creation comes from something deeper.

Growth, especially in its early phases, can be uneven. It can bring pressure on margins, higher reinvestment needs and periods where returns do not immediately reflect the scale being built.

What separates the stronger businesses is how they navigate this phase.

The better companies use growth to strengthen their economics by improving their mix, building pricing power, tightening execution and creating a more resilient model over time.

For investors, the real task is not just identifying growth, but understanding its direction.
