Analysis

Hindustan Foods Limited (HNDFDS) currently trades at ₹644.80, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹258.30, implying the stock looks roughly 59.9% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 33/100 (below-average 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: medium).

Over the trailing twelve months, Hindustan Foods Limited generated revenue of ₹42.5B at a net margin of 3.5%. Revenue grew 19.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.5%. Net debt stands at ₹10.4B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹193.72 (bear case) to ₹322.87 (bull case); at ₹644.80, 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 near its 52-week high and 46% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 11% fair-value upside, at -60%, HNDFDS 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.

Widest divergence: Earnings-Based (₹430.50) versus Asset-Based (₹64.43). Highest evidence: P/E Multiple (63).

How we calculate Fair Value

Each company is valued through a stack of independent intrinsic-value models (DCF variants, residual-income, multiples and more), blended into one family-balanced consensus and weighted by how much trustworthy data backs it. A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
