What matters now
The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹9.88). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
Solid but not exceptional quality (52/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
Evidence is limited here (fewer models, shorter history), so the fair value is a rougher estimate than usual.

How to read this chart
60‑month range ₹8.87 – ₹28.30 · fair‑value band ₹5.93 – ₹9.88 · the ₹10.29 price screens above the ₹7.91 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 19, 2026.
Hathway Cable & Datacom Limited (HATHWAY) currently trades at ₹10.29, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹7.91, implying the stock looks roughly 30.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 52/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bull case: the Asset-Based group reads highest at a median of ₹16.90 per share, and 6 of the 24 models we run sit above the ₹10.29 price. Bear case: the Economic Profit group reads lowest at ₹1.48, and 18 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Hathway Cable & Datacom Limited generated revenue of ₹21.5B at a net margin of 3.8%. Revenue grew 6.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.9%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹1.8B. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026
Scenario range: ₹5.93 (bear) to ₹9.88 (bull), the price of ₹10.29 sits above it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a range, not a price target. The share trades about 43% below its 52-week high and 17% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at −51% fair-value upside, at −23%, HATHWAY screens cheaper than that median.

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
