From 2 valuation models · updated 2 days ago

Fair value updated Aug 18, 2026, revised from ₹528.70 to ₹528.00 (−0.1%) since Aug 13, 2026.

A solid business, screening 105% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (₹396.00). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • Solid quality (54/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

Quest Capital Markets Ltd (QUESTCAP) currently trades at ₹257.10, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹528.00, implying the stock looks roughly 105.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 54/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: medium), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Quest Capital Markets Ltd generated revenue of ₹313M at a net margin of 75.1%. It earns a return on equity of 2.0%. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 10.9. Fundamentals as of Aug 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹396.00 (bear case) to ₹660.00 (bull case); at ₹257.10, the current price sits below 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 35% below its 52-week high and 16% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -19% fair-value upside, at 105%, QUESTCAP 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
