From 26 valuation models · updated 26 days ago

Fair value updated Jul 12, 2026, revised from ₹441.39 to ₹441.74 (+0.1%) since Jun 24, 2026. Share price +4.7% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 80% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹621.03). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The model range is unusually wide (₹222.65 to ₹621.03). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (64/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Bharat Forge Limited (BHARATFORG) currently trades at ₹2,210, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹441.74, implying the stock looks roughly 80.0% overvalued today. We read business quality at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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, Bharat Forge Limited generated revenue of ₹168B at a net margin of 6.4%. Revenue grew 17.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 11.6%. Net debt stands at ₹63.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹222.65 (bear case) to ₹621.03 (bull case); at ₹2,210, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 101% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -41% fair-value upside, at -80%, BHARATFORG screens richer 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.
