Price against growth

Each dot is a company: further left is cheaper (lower P/E), higher up grew profit faster. Red dots passed the cheaper-than-peers screen. Companies beyond the chart's edges sit on the edge.

Cheaper than peers

Not a buy list. These shares trade at a P/E at least 30% below their industry's typical level and below their own usual level, and they also pass basic checks: profitable, sales and profit growing, low debt, no red flags, market value of ₹250 Cr or more. Cheap shares are often cheap for a reason; this is where to start reading, not where to stop.

Figures are medians and shares of companies, so one giant company cannot outweigh the rest. Results compare each company's latest quarter with the same quarter a year earlier; ratings and announcements cover the last 90 days (announcements are read by AI and can be wrong). This page adds up published data; it is not a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
