DIC India Share Price

DIC India Share Price Today stood at Rs 589.25, up 15.56%, taking the Chemicals micro cap company’s market capitalisation to Rs 481.9 crore.

DIC India Share Price moved sharply higher in early trade on 13 August 2026, with the stock at Rs 589.25, up Rs 79.35 or 15.56% from its previous close of Rs 509.90. With a market capitalisation of Rs 481.9 crore, DIC India Ltd. The supplied data confirms the price event and the scale of the gain, although it does not establish a company-specific catalyst for why the stock is rising today.

That makes this DIC India Share Price update relevant for investors searching for DIC India Share Price Today, DIC India Stock News and DIC India Share Price Rise. The stock opened at Rs 570, traded between Rs 557.05 and Rs 590.85, and quickly positioned itself among market movers and top gainers today. Turnover stood at Rs 0.05 crore, while total traded volume across exchanges was 30,949 shares.

From a broader stock analysis perspective, the move also draws attention to DIC India’s valuation and profitability profile. The company trades at a P/E ratio of 24.6 and a P/B ratio of 1.08, while ROE stands at 3.24% and ROCE at 4.74%. Within the Chemicals industry benchmark of 141 companies, those numbers place the stock in an interesting middle ground: not optically expensive on book value, but not especially strong on returns. In this Univest analysis, investors should monitor whether today’s price action is supported by sustained participation, relative valuation and industry context rather than by the single-session move alone.

DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) Fundamental Analysis

Metric Value
Market Capitalisation Rs 481.9 crore
P/E Ratio 24.6x
P/B Ratio 1.08x
ROE 3.24%
ROCE 4.74%
EPS Rs 20.73
Dividend Yield 0.59%

DIC India Ltd. was valued at a P/E ratio of 24.6x, a P/B ratio of 1.08x. These multiples provide valuation context, but they should not be labelled expensive or inexpensive without a comparable peer or sector benchmark.

Profitability and capital efficiency were represented by ROE of 3.24% and ROCE of 4.74%. ROE relates profit to shareholder equity, while ROCE measures returns generated on the capital employed in the business.

Per-share and shareholder-return metrics included EPS of Rs 20.73, dividend yield of 0.59%. Dividend yield is a current or historical ratio and does not guarantee future distributions.

DIC India Share Price is now inviting closer fundamental analysis because a sharp one-day move is most useful when it is read alongside valuation, profitability and earnings metrics. Based on the supplied numbers, DIC India Ltd. has a market capitalisation of Rs 481.9 crore, which places it in the smaller end of the listed Chemicals space by size, even though it has still delivered a price rise strong enough to enter today’s focus list.

On valuation, the stock trades at a P/E ratio of 24.6 and a P/B ratio of 1.08. For investors following DIC India Fundamental Analysis, these figures suggest the market is valuing the company at just above its reported book value multiple of 1.08 times, while assigning a 24.6 times multiple to earnings. EPS stands at Rs 20.73, which gives direct context to the current stock price because EPS represents the earnings attributable to each share. Dividend yield is 0.59, showing a modest historical/current payout relative to the prevailing market price.

Profitability metrics are more restrained than the headline price move. ROE is 3.24%, which indicates the return generated on shareholder equity is relatively limited at this stage, while ROCE at 4.74% points to modest returns on capital employed. That does not negate the importance of today’s DIC India Share Price action, but it does mean investors should separate price momentum from underlying operating efficiency.

In simple terms, the DIC India Share Price rise has drawn the market’s attention, yet the supplied company financials present a mixed fundamental backdrop rather than a uniformly strong one. The valuation is not extreme on book value, EPS offers a concrete earnings base, and dividend yield adds another reference point, but the return ratios remain subdued. In Univest’s view, that combination makes this a stock where the share price gain is newsworthy, while the financial profile still needs to be interpreted with discipline rather than excitement alone.

DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) is classified under sector: Chemicals and industry: Chemicals.

DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) has a P/E ratio of 24.6x, which is above the benchmark median of 20.91x, a difference of +17.65%. P/E is a valuation multiple and is not, by itself, a buy or sell signal.

DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) has a ROE of 3.24%, which is below the benchmark median of 11.96%, a difference of -72.91%. DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) has a ROCE of 4.74%, which is below the benchmark median of 14.37%, a difference of -67.01%.

Track today’s top gainers through the Univest top gainers screener. The peer table below provides the company-level comparison.

DIC India Share Price is best understood within the broader Chemicals industry because the benchmark data shows where its valuation and profitability stand against 141 same-industry companies. The stock’s P/E ratio of 24.6 sits above the industry median of 20.91 but below the average of 47.42, placing it somewhere in the middle of a very wide valuation range of 4.42 to 676.5.

The same industry comparison is useful on price-to-book as well. DIC India’s P/B ratio is 1.08, below the benchmark median of 1.6 and below the average of 1.87. Within a P/B range of -58.37 to 46.65 across 140 companies, that places the company at the lower end of the industry’s valuation spectrum on book value. For readers searching DIC India Market Cap and DIC India Stock Performance, size also matters: DIC India’s market capitalisation of Rs 481.9 crore is above the industry median of Rs 233.53 crore but below the average of Rs 570.5 crore, in a benchmark range spanning Rs 5.23 crore to Rs 3,061.89 crore.

Profitability comparisons are less flattering. Company ROE of 3.24% is below the benchmark median of 11.96% and below the average of 15.5%. Company ROCE of 4.74% is also below the industry median of 14.37% and average of 17.65%. So while DIC India Share Price has become part of Stocks in News because of today’s rally-like move, the sector data shows that current return metrics trail the broader Chemicals benchmark.

This is where Univest sees the balance of the story. The stock’s valuation is not particularly stretched relative to the industry average, especially on P/B, but its return ratios are weaker than the benchmark. That contrast helps explain why today’s price rise deserves attention as market news, while still requiring investors to study whether operational quality eventually catches up with market action.

Nocil Ltd. NOCIL 2,770.11 41.27 1.52 12.95 17.71

DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) has a P/E ratio of 24.6x compared with the displayed peer median of 18.56x. This is a relative valuation comparison, not a buy or sell signal. Its ROE of 3.24% compares with a peer median of 16.17% across the companies shown in the table. ROCE stood at 4.74% versus the displayed peer median of 24.37%, providing a capital-efficiency comparison. DIC India Ltd. (DICIND) has a market capitalisation of Rs 481.9 crore. Among the 5 peers shown, 5 have a larger market capitalisation.

DIC India Share Price also looks more nuanced when set against listed Chemicals peers. With a market capitalisation of Rs 481.9 crore, DIC India is much smaller than Grauer & Weil (India) Ltd. at Rs 3,061.89 crore, Bhansali Engineering Polymers Ltd. at Rs 3,046.03 crore, JUBILANT AGRI N CON PRO L at Rs 2,810.86 crore, Rossari Biotech Ltd. at Rs 2,800.73 crore and Nocil Ltd. at Rs 2,770.11 crore. In scale terms alone, DIC India remains well below the larger peer set supplied in this workflow.

On valuation, DIC India’s P/E ratio of 24.6 is higher than Grauer & Weil at 18.37, Bhansali Engineering Polymers at 15.02, JUBILANT AGRI N CON PRO L at 22.63 and Rossari Biotech at 18.56, but lower than Nocil at 41.27, JG Chemicals at 100.75, Camlin Fine Sciences at 352.87 and SH Kelkar at 26.59 by a small margin. That puts DIC India somewhere in the middle of the peer valuation set, not at the cheapest end and far from the costliest.

The relative return profile is more challenging. DIC India’s ROE of 3.24% trails Grauer & Weil at 14.35%, Bhansali Engineering Polymers at 42.11%, JUBILANT AGRI N CON PRO L at 48.1%, Rossari Biotech at 16.17%, Nocil at 12.95% and SH Kelkar at 15.21%. Its ROCE of 4.74% is also below most supplied peers, including Grauer & Weil at 19.47%, Rossari at 24.37% and GOCL Corporation at 6.53%, which is only modestly higher but still ahead. Even GOCL’s P/B of 0.99 is near DIC India’s 1.08, suggesting the market is giving both companies relatively restrained book-value multiples.

For DIC India Stock Analysis, the peer set therefore paints a clear picture: the stock’s market cap is smaller, valuation is mixed rather than extreme, and profitability lags many of the better-returning Chemicals names. That is why today’s DIC India Share Price Rise is important as a trading and market update event, but also why peer context remains essential.

Why Investors Are Watching DIC India

DIC India Share Price has moved into focus because the stock combined a sharp single-day gain with a clear threshold breach for its market-cap category. In an Indian Stock Market session where traders often screen for Top Gainers Today and Stocks Rising Today, a 15.56% move naturally places the company on watchlists. At the same time, the stock’s valuation and profitability metrics create a more layered picture than the price action alone suggests.

That approach keeps the focus on verified data rather than speculation.
