- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹1,275). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The model range is unusually wide (₹481.08 to ₹1,275). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (55/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis
Linde India Limited (LINDEINDIA) currently trades at ₹7,153, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹757.93, implying the stock looks roughly 89.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 55/100 (solid 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, Linde India Limited generated revenue of ₹25.1B at a net margin of 23.5%. Revenue grew 13.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.5%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹332M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹481.08 (bear case) to ₹1,275 (bull case); at ₹7,153, 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 11% below its 52-week high and 26% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -58% fair-value upside, at -89%, LINDEINDIA 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (₹1,079) versus Growth DCF (₹187.03). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
