Analysis
Marico Limited (MARICO) currently trades at ₹860.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹233.05, implying the stock looks roughly 72.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 74/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, Marico Limited generated revenue of ₹136B at a net margin of 13.0%. Revenue grew 22.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 41.4%. Net debt stands at ₹640M. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹174.66 (bear case) to ₹323.96 (bull case); at ₹860.00, 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 near its 52-week high and 28% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -26% fair-value upside, at -73%, MARICO 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
