Analysis
S H Kelkar and Company Limited (SHK) currently trades at ₹164.25, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹85.06, implying the stock looks roughly 48.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 45/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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, S H Kelkar and Company Limited generated revenue of ₹23.7B at a net margin of 2.9%. Revenue grew 13.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 5.3%. Net debt stands at ₹9.6B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹63.80 (bear case) to ₹118.31 (bull case); at ₹164.25, 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 40% below its 52-week high and 47% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -68% fair-value upside, at -48%, SHK 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.
