MPS Limited DCF Valuation
MPSLTD · Media, Entertainment & Publication · Current price ₹2,512
MPS Limited cash-flow valuation
Our discounted cash flow (2-stage) values MPS Limited at ₹1,096 per share. Intrinsic value from 2-stage discounted cash flows (primary for asset-light / normal businesses); FCFE path. It carries 60% of the weight in our published estimate of ₹1,970. A discounted cash flow is only as good as the cash-flow path it assumes, so the assumptions behind it are listed in full below.

How we got this fair value
Every number below is part of the same estimate for MPS Limited. Nothing here is a target price or a forecast of where the share price will go.
The inputs are thin or the models disagree sharply. This is our least reliable kind of estimate, so read the range rather than the single number.
Estimate range ₹1,182 – ₹2,167
Why this method for this business
The business is asset-light with durable earnings power, making DCF and relative PE appropriate. Residual income complements these models by capturing book value and return on equity.
The models behind the number
These methods disagree materially, so the estimate is their plain midpoint rather than a weighted blend. The disagreement is itself the finding.
Intrinsic value from 2-stage discounted cash flows (primary for asset-light / normal businesses); FCFE path
downweighted: 147% from committee consensus (₹1140)
Book value plus the present value of returns earned above the 10.6% cost of equity
- Discounted cash flow (2-stage) is primary, but other models like DDM or EV/EBITDA are not suitable for a B2B learning and platform solutions company with high ROE and low debt
What was missing
- Lack of forward analyst estimates for EBITDA
- Limited data on digital adoption rates
- No recent news impacting the business

peer-anchor mismatch — deep own-history used instead
quality 84/100 (high, stable returns) → premium
durable ~18% CAGR (ROCE 32% > hurdle) → premium
capital allocation: rising ROCE funded by strong FCF → premium
financial strength: low leverage (D/E 0.1) → mild premium
history: market paid +26% vs sector, dampened ×0.3 (one feature, not the anchor)
sector re-rating: no sector-norm history → not used

Who computed this
A language model (qwen3:8b) selects the valuation method and the judgement inputs for MPS Limited: which models suit the business, the moat, the growth and margin assumptions. It does not produce the number. The fair value itself is computed in Python by a deterministic engine (version 2026.08.1) from those inputs, so the same inputs always give the same result and every figure above can be traced to a source.
Estimated 15 Sept 2026. Re-run as new financials and news arrive.
How we value stocks
We estimate what a business is worth from its own economics: cash flows, returns on capital, and a multiple justified by its quality, rather than from where the share price has been. A fair value estimate is a view, not a verdict, and it is only as good as the inputs listed above.
