Analysis

KELTECH ENERGIES LTD. (KELENRG) currently trades at ₹13,860, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹4,578, implying the stock looks roughly 67.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 48/100 (below-average 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, KELTECH ENERGIES LTD. generated revenue of ₹5.3B at a net margin of 5.4%. Revenue grew 1.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.7%. Net debt stands at ₹567M. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹3,434 (bear case) to ₹5,723 (bull case); at ₹13,860, 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. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -68% fair-value upside, at -67%, KELENRG screens cheaper 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence
