| P/E Ratio | 165.1x |
| P/B Ratio | 6.86x |
| ROE | 3.71% |
| ROCE | 3.87% |

Paytm’s fundamental profile shows a market capitalisation of Rs 1,07,315.32 crore and a P/E ratio of 165.10, which places the stock at a premium to many fintech peers in the supplied set. The P/B ratio is 6.86, while ROE is 3.71% and ROCE is 3.87%. These returns are modest when compared with the company’s valuation multiple, so the Paytm Share Price continues to trade with a heavy emphasis on expectations rather than current accounting returns.
EPS is Rs 10.13, book value is Rs 243.73 per share and dividend yield is 0. These figures help frame the Paytm Share Price because they show the earnings base, balance-sheet value and payout profile behind the stock. In today’s stock analysis, that combination supports a factual reading: the company has a sizeable equity market value, but its current profitability metrics remain relative to the price the market assigns. Univest places these numbers in context so readers can compare the Paytm Share Price with both growth and quality metrics.
For a Paytm Share Price review, the key fundamental question is not whether the company is large, but whether earnings and capital returns can meaningfully catch up with valuation over time.
