What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹2,938). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (32/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • A fairly wide model range (₹1,372 to ₹2,938) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Larsen & Toubro Limited (LT) currently trades at ₹3,966, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹2,196, implying the stock looks roughly 80.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 32/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of ₹5,353 per share, and 7 of the 24 models we run sit above the ₹3,966 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at ₹532.30, and 17 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Larsen & Toubro Limited generated revenue of ₹2.8T at a net margin of 5.8%. Revenue grew 11.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.5%. Net debt stands at ₹1.1T. Fundamentals as of Aug 21, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹1,372 (bear case) to ₹2,938 (bull case); at ₹3,966, 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 10% below its 52-week high and 22% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −52% fair-value upside, at −45%, LT screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

This estimate rests on fiscal year 2026 figures, and about 5 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly ₹55.72 per share, which is 2.8 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

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

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
