Analysis
Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Limited (RCF) currently trades at ₹123.26, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹131.69, implying the stock looks roughly 6.8% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 41/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Limited generated revenue of ₹185B at a net margin of 2.3%. Revenue grew 49.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.7%. Net debt stands at ₹40.0B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹98.77 (bear case) to ₹164.62 (bull case); at ₹123.26, 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 24% below its 52-week high and 16% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -17% fair-value upside, at 7%, RCF 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.
All 16 models by family
