A solid business, but screening 40% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹5,169). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (62/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (₹2,264 to ₹5,169) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Alkem Laboratories Limited (ALKEM) currently trades at ₹5,620, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹3,368, implying the stock looks roughly 40.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, Alkem Laboratories Limited generated revenue of ₹147B at a net margin of 15.7%. Revenue grew 14.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.6%. Net debt stands at ₹18.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹2,264 (bear case) to ₹5,169 (bull case); at ₹5,620, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 5% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at -40%, ALKEM screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
