Analysis
Century Plyboards (India) Limited (CENTURYPLY) currently trades at ₹763.85, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹201.01, implying the stock looks roughly 73.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 51/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials 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, Century Plyboards (India) Limited generated revenue of ₹54.0B at a net margin of 4.9%. Revenue grew 24.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.7%. Net debt stands at ₹17.1B. Fundamentals as of Aug 2, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹148.03 (bear case) to ₹251.26 (bull case); at ₹763.85, 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 11% below its 52-week high and 24% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -32% fair-value upside, at -74%, CENTURYPLY 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.
