How to read this chart
60‑month range ₹82.24 – ₹297.88 · fair‑value band ₹83.31 – ₹206.84 · the ₹194.65 price screens above the ₹139.96 fair value. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 24, 2026.
Analysis
Star Cement Limited (STARCEMENT) currently trades at ₹194.65, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹139.96, implying the stock looks roughly 28.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid 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, Star Cement Limited generated revenue of ₹38.1B at a net margin of 9.7%. Revenue grew 3.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.9%. Net debt stands at ₹5.7B. Fundamentals as of Aug 24, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹83.31 (bear case) to ₹206.84 (bull case); at ₹194.65, 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 37% below its 52-week high and 2% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -60% fair-value upside, at -28%, STARCEMENT 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.

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 67 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 37
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
