Analysis
Railtel Corporation Of India Limited (RAILTEL) currently trades at ₹279.95, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹237.40, implying the stock looks roughly 15.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 54/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services 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, Railtel Corporation Of India Limited generated revenue of ₹42.8B at a net margin of 8.1%. Revenue grew 27.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹5.9B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹108.16 (bear case) to ₹296.75 (bull case); at ₹279.95, the current price sits within 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 34% below its 52-week high and 14% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at 30% fair-value upside, at -15%, RAILTEL 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.
