NBCC (India) Limited Fair Value
NBCC · Construction · Current price ₹75.51
Is NBCC (India) Limited undervalued?
We estimate the fair value of NBCC (India) Limited at ₹76 per share, against a market price of ₹83. That puts the share price about -8.3% above our estimate, at low confidence. This is our view of what the business is worth, not a target price or a forecast of where the share price will go.
How this fair value is calculated
This estimate comes from 2 methods: Discounted cash flow (2-stage) (₹20), Fair multiple (P/E) (₹132). These methods disagree materially, so the estimate is their midpoint rather than a weighted blend, and the disagreement is part of the finding. The full working, including the assumptions and what data was missing, is set out below.
The range around this estimate
Our estimate for NBCC (India) Limited spans ₹38 to ₹132. That range is wide, which is the honest signal here: read the range rather than the single number. A margin of safety means buying meaningfully below the estimate: the wider the range, the more room the assumptions leave for error.
How we got this fair value
Every number below is part of the same estimate for NBCC (India) 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 ₹38 – ₹132
Why this method for this business
NBCC is a capital-intensive construction company with a strong government presence, making DCF and relative PE the most appropriate models. EV/EBITDA is less suitable due to the sector's cyclicality and the company's debt-free profile.
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.

Who computed this
A language model (qwen3:8b) selects the valuation method and the judgement inputs for NBCC (India) 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.

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.
