The session range, previous close and turnover provide the verified market context for the move.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_NIACL_Share_Price_today\"><\/span><strong>What is NIACL Share Price today?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> NIACL Share Price today is Rs 193.75.

Market cap reflects company size in the stock market, and in the same-industry benchmark it sits below the median of Rs 61,921.55 crore.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_NIACL_valuation_ratios_compare_with_peers\"><\/span><strong>How do NIACL valuation ratios compare with peers?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> NIACL has a P\/E of 39.93 and P\/B of 1.26. Compared with peers, its P\/B is lower than most listed insurance names in the dataset, while its P\/E sits in the mid-range.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_do_NIACL_EPS_and_book_value_mean\"><\/span><strong>What do NIACL EPS and book value mean?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> NIACL\u2019s EPS is Rs 4.67 and book value is Rs 148.26.

Both are below the same-industry medians in the supplied benchmark, so the profitability snapshot is weaker than many peers on these measures.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_NIACL_pay_dividends\"><\/span><strong>Does NIACL pay dividends?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> NIACL\u2019s dividend yield is 0.8%.
