Why this method for this business

The residual income model is most appropriate for a bank like SBIN, as it captures the value of its book equity and excess returns over the cost of equity. The justified P/B model complements this by incorporating the sustainable ROE and cost of equity, which are critical for valuing a large, stable bank.

The models behind the number

Each method is weighted by how well its inputs held up for this company.

Who computed this

A language model (glm-4.5-air) selects the valuation method and the judgement inputs for STATE BANK OF INDIA: 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 14 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.
