Financial Services · IN · Market cap ₹51.6B
Fair value as of: Aug 13, 2026
From 13 valuation models · updated 3 days ago
Share price +0.5% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 53% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- A high-quality business (quality 72/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹3,487). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- A fairly wide model range (₹1,830 to ₹3,487) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
ICRA Limited (ICRA) currently trades at ₹5,266, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹2,452, implying the stock looks roughly 53.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 72/100 (solid 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, ICRA Limited generated revenue of ₹6.0B at a net margin of 30.3%. Revenue grew 4.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹241M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹1,830 (bear case) to ₹3,487 (bull case); at ₹5,266, 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 25% below its 52-week high and 6% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -53% fair-value upside, at -53%, ICRA 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.
All 13 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (₹3,219) versus Asset-Based (₹822.03). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
