What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹196.86). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

Analysis

Kross Ltd (KROSS) currently trades at ₹205.20, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹155.96, implying the stock looks roughly 24.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 41/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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, Kross Ltd generated revenue of ₹6.7B at a net margin of 8.2%. Revenue grew 21.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.0%. Net debt stands at ₹493M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹115.06 (bear case) to ₹196.86 (bull case); at ₹205.20, 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 14% below its 52-week high and 36% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -52% fair-value upside, at -24%, KROSS 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
