Fair value as of: Aug 2, 2026
From 9 valuation models · updated 11 days ago
Share price −1.8% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 22% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹352.08). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (45/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Crest Ventures Limited (CREST) currently trades at ₹363.35, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹281.67, implying the stock looks roughly 22.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 45/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services 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, Crest Ventures Limited generated revenue of ₹1.6B at a net margin of 29.4%. Revenue declined 32.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.8%. Net debt stands at ₹208M. Fundamentals as of Aug 2, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹211.25 (bear case) to ₹352.08 (bull case); at ₹363.35, 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 13% below its 52-week high and 22% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -22% fair-value upside, at -22%, CREST 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.
