Analysis
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) currently trades at ₹408.15, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹96.51, implying the stock looks roughly 76.4% overvalued today. We read business quality at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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 Heavy Electricals Limited generated revenue of ₹338B at a net margin of 4.7%. Revenue grew 36.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹36.8B. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹72.38 (bear case) to ₹119.87 (bull case); at ₹408.15, 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 about 4% below its 52-week high and 99% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at -76%, BHEL 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.
