Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is at Rs 260, giving the company a market capitalisation of Rs 361.05 crore, while the stock is trading within 2% of its all-time high.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price was at Rs 260 at the time this event qualified on 18 August 2026 at 10:12:58 AM IST, valuing the company at Rs 361.05 crore. The verified Univest screener signal is straightforward: the stock is trading within 2% of its all-time high, placing it close to record levels and making it relevant for investors tracking momentum, valuation and relative positioning in the Chemicals space.

What stands out here is not a confirmed breakout or a fresh peak, but the fact that Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is now within striking distance of its historic high. That matters because stocks approaching all-time high zones often draw closer scrutiny from market participants looking at whether price strength is being supported by financial quality, sector context and peer comparisons.

The supplied data does not establish a company-specific catalyst behind this move. Even so, the combination of a Rs 260 share price, a Rs 361.05 crore market cap and a screen for proximity to long-term highs puts Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price firmly on the radar. In this Univest analysis, the focus is on what the data confirms today: where the stock is trading, how its valuation compares with the Dyes & Pigments benchmark, and whether the company’s profitability and balance-sheet indicators add enough context to explain why investors are watching it.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price Today: Within 2% of All-Time High

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price Today was Rs 260 when the Univest screener identified the stock as trading within 2% of its all-time high. The available event data confirms the last traded price at qualification, but it does not indicate that the stock touched or crossed a new historic peak. That distinction matters: the screen identifies proximity to an important long-term price zone, not a confirmed new high.

For investors, this kind of setup is often significant because all-time high neighbourhoods can become points of intensified market attention. When a stock remains close to record territory, market participants typically start asking a different set of questions. Is momentum being supported by underlying profitability? Is valuation already discounting a lot of optimism? Does the stock sit above or below the profitability levels seen across the same industry? In the case of Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price, those questions become especially relevant because the company is a smaller-cap Chemicals name with a market capitalisation of Rs 361.05 crore.

The current signal also matters in search terms such as Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price Today and Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Stock News because proximity to an all-time high often changes how a stock is monitored. Rather than relying on narrative alone, the next step is to assess whether the available fundamental and industry numbers justify sustained investor attention. That is where the broader analytical picture becomes important.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. (UCL-ST) Fundamental Analysis

Metric Value
Market Capitalisation Rs 361.05 crore
P/E Ratio -1,733.33x
P/B Ratio 7.23x
ROE 9.26%
ROCE 10.26%
EPS Rs -0.15
Book Value Per Share Rs 35.95
Dividend Yield 0%

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. was valued at a P/E ratio of -1,733.33x, a P/B ratio of 7.23x. 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 9.26% and ROCE of 10.26%. 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 -0.15, book value per share of Rs 35.95, dividend yield of 0%. Dividend yield is a current or historical ratio and does not guarantee future distributions.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price at Rs 260 translates into a market capitalisation of Rs 361.05 crore, which places the company in the smaller listed end of the Chemicals universe rather than the large-cap category. Size alone does not determine quality, so the more important question is how the valuation and profitability figures align.

The first striking metric is the P/E ratio of -1733.33. A negative P/E reflects the fact that earnings are not supporting a conventional valuation reading, and that is consistent with the supplied EPS of -0.15. In simple terms, the company’s earnings attributable to each share are currently negative on the provided data set. At the same time, the stock trades at a P/B ratio of 7.23 against a book value per share of Rs 35.95. That means Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is commanding a multiple well above its accounting net worth per share, which becomes a key point when compared with industry benchmarks later in this article.

On profitability, the company posts ROE of 9.26 and ROCE of 10.26. These are positive returns, showing that the business is generating some return on shareholder equity and capital employed, but the numbers are not especially high on a relative basis within the same industry benchmark. Dividend yield is 0, so there is no indicated current yield support in the supplied data.

Taken together, the fundamentals present a mixed picture. Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is near its ATH, yet the earnings print reflected by EPS of -0.15 and the negative P/E suggest that investors should not read price strength alone as proof of broad fundamental comfort. The stock’s elevated price-to-book ratio, however, shows that the market is valuing the company meaningfully above book value. That makes the comparison with industry and peers particularly important in any Univest stock analysis.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. (UCL-ST) is classified under sector: Chemicals and industry: Dyes & Pigments.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. (UCL-ST) has a P/E ratio of -1,733.33x, which is below the benchmark median of 12.47x, a difference of -14,000%. P/E is a valuation multiple and is not, by itself, a buy or sell signal.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price sits in the Chemicals sector and specifically in the Dyes & Pigments industry. The benchmark comparison supplied for this article covers 25 companies from the same industry, while the wider sector count is 211 companies. That scope matters because it allows a direct same-industry read rather than a broad sector-only comparison.

On valuation, Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. has a company P/E of -1733.33, while the same-industry median P/E is 12.47 and the average is 15.69, with a range from 0 to 57.67 across 25 companies. Because the company’s earnings-based multiple is negative, it does not sit comfortably within the industry’s normal positive valuation band. On P/B, however, the contrast is even more visible: the company trades at 7.23 versus an industry median of 1.15 and average of 1.49, with the benchmark range running from 0.39 to 4.64. That places Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price at a clear premium to the same-industry book-value benchmark.

Profitability is more moderate. The company’s ROE of 9.26 is below the industry median of 12.26 and average of 12.53. Its ROCE of 10.26 is also below the industry median of 13.91, although above the benchmark average of 7.36. In market-cap terms, the company’s Rs 361.05 crore size is above the industry median of Rs 178.08 crore but below the average of Rs 443.45 crore, within a range of Rs 6.26 crore to Rs 2,684.27 crore.

The sector picture therefore shows a stock near all-time high territory with a premium P/B valuation, a negative earnings multiple and mid-range company size. That combination is exactly why Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is drawing attention on Univest today.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. (UCL-ST) has a P/E ratio of -1,733.33x compared with the displayed peer median of 17.48x. This is a relative valuation comparison, not a buy or sell signal. Its ROE of 9.26% compares with a peer median of 14.89% across the companies shown in the table. ROCE stood at 10.26% versus the displayed peer median of 15.07%, providing a capital-efficiency comparison. Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. (UCL-ST) has a market capitalisation of Rs 361.05 crore. Among the 5 peers shown, 2 have a larger market capitalisation.

The peer set supplied for Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price includes Asahi Songwon Colors, Dynemic Products, Vipul Organics, Poddar Pigments and Aksharchem (India), all from the same Dyes & Pigments industry. Against these names, Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. stands out immediately on valuation because its P/E is -1733.33, whereas peer P/E ratios are positive at 12.08 for Asahi Songwon, 14.3 for Dynemic Products, 57.67 for Vipul Organics, 17.59 for Poddar Pigments and 17.48 for Aksharchem.

On price-to-book, Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. at 7.23 is above all five peers. The comparison set ranges from 0.75 for Poddar Pigments and 0.89 for Aksharchem to 3.94 for Vipul Organics, meaning the company is trading at a noticeably richer multiple to book than the peers shown. That is an important part of the current market narrative around Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price.

Profitability also looks mixed in peer terms. ROE at 9.26 is below Asahi Songwon’s 14.89, Dynemic’s 20.04, Vipul Organics’ 19.84 and Poddar Pigments’ 10.97, but above Aksharchem’s 4.6. ROCE at 10.26 is below Asahi Songwon’s 18.2, Dynemic’s 15.07, Vipul Organics’ 17.99 and Poddar Pigments’ 14.58, while still above Aksharchem’s 6.29.

In size, the company’s market cap of Rs 361.05 crore is above Dynemic Products at Rs 289.27 crore, Poddar Pigments at Rs 268.11 crore and Aksharchem at Rs 240.59 crore, but below Asahi Songwon at Rs 429.29 crore and Vipul Organics at Rs 466.07 crore. So, the peer picture shows a mid-sized company near its ATH, but with profitability that is not leading the pack and valuation that already screens at a premium on book value.

Why Investors Are Watching Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd.

Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price is being watched because the stock is trading within 2% of its all-time high at an event-qualified price of Rs 260. That alone is enough to bring it into focus, but the deeper interest comes from the contrast between market positioning and the supplied financial metrics. The company’s market capitalisation of Rs 361.05 crore places it in a segment where price moves can quickly attract attention, while its negative P/E, premium P/B and moderate profitability create a more layered story than price alone suggests. For investors using Univest screens, this is the kind of setup that invites closer comparison rather than a simple momentum conclusion.

  • Verified price event: Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price qualified on the Univest screener for trading within 2% of its all-time high.
  • Current market value: the company is capitalised at Rs 361.05 crore.

  • Profitability context: ROE stands at 9.26 and ROCE at 10.26.
  • Industry view: the stock sits in Chemicals, specifically Dyes & Pigments, against a 25-company same-industry benchmark.
  • Peer positioning: profitability trails several peers while P/B is above the supplied comparison set.

The next thing to monitor is whether Ushanti Colour Chem Ltd. Share Price continues to hold attention near record levels while its valuation remains far above the industry median on a price-to-book basis. Investors may also track whether future reported earnings improve enough to change the negative P/E and EPS profile currently visible in the data. Univest screens are useful here because they put price position and financial context in one place.
