Market cap was Rs 49,425.51 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">KEI Industries Share Price fell to Rs 4,990 on 04 September 2026 at 9:35:51 AM IST, down 5.72% or Rs 302.5 from the previous close of Rs 5,292.5, taking the Large Cap cable stock\u2019s market capitalisation to Rs 49,425.51 crore. Today\u2019s decline has pushed KEI Industries Share Price into focus because the move was sharp, the intraday range widened quickly, and the stock now sits below an important medium-term moving average.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied data confirms the price event, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst behind why the stock is falling today. Even so, KEI Industries Stock News is attracting attention because the stock opened at Rs 5,069.95, also marked the day\u2019s high at Rs 5,069.95, and then slipped to an intraday low of Rs 4,855.75 before trading near Rs 4,990. Turnover stood at Rs 8.81 crore at the time of this Univest update.<\/p>\n<p>For investors tracking KEI Industries Share Price Today, the key points are clear within the first trade snapshot: a meaningful same-day decline, a valuation profile that still screens above industry medians, profitability metrics that remain ahead of several benchmark averages, and peer comparisons that place the company in the upper tier of the listed cable space. What investors should monitor next is whether price stabilises around current levels and how its valuation and return ratios compare with peers and the broader Electricals-Cable benchmark.<\/p>\n<div

Rs 4,990, a decline of Rs 302.5 or 5.72%. The day opened at Rs 5,069.95, which was also the session high, showing that the stock failed to build above the opening print before moving lower. The day low of Rs 4,855.75 indicates that sellers tested materially lower levels before some recovery from the bottom of the range.<\/p>\n<p>This price action matters because it places KEI Industries Share Price in a weaker near-term position than the prior close while still keeping it above the intraday low. The difference between the high of Rs 5,069.95 and low of Rs 4,855.75 shows a broad trading band for the session. Turnover of Rs 8.81 crore confirms that the move drew market attention. As a Large Cap company with a market cap of Rs 49,425.51 crore, KEI Industries Share News tends to be assessed not only on today\u2019s decline but also on how that move fits with broader valuation and trend signals.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"KEI_Industries_KEI_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>KEI Industries (KEI) Fundamental Analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:16px 0 22px 0;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Metric<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Market Capitalisation<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 49,425.51 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>P\/E Ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">50.76x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>P\/B Ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">7.29x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>ROE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">15.63%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>ROCE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">21.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>EPS<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 104.27<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Book Value Per Share<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 725.84<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Dividend Yield<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">0.09%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>KEI Industries Fundamental Analysis shows a business that still carries premium valuation multiples despite today\u2019s share price fall. At the current level, the stock trades at a P\/E ratio of 50.76 and a P\/B ratio of 7.29. Those figures suggest that the market continues to value the company at a substantial premium to book value and at a multiple above much of the same-industry benchmark set. Market capitalisation stands at Rs 49,425.51 crore, reinforcing its position as a large listed name within the Cable segment of the Electricals sector.<\/p>\n<p>Profitability metrics remain meaningful. Return on equity is 15.63%, while return on capital employed is 21.47%. These numbers indicate that KEI Industries is generating double-digit returns on shareholder equity and stronger returns on capital employed than on equity alone. EPS is Rs 104.27, which captures earnings attributable to each share. Book value per share is Rs 725.84, offering an accounting net worth reference against the current stock price. Dividend yield is 0.09, which is modest and suggests that the stock\u2019s market appeal is not centered on yield. In Univest\u2019s reading, the current setup keeps KEI Industries Share Price relevant because valuation is elevated, but profitability still compares reasonably well within its industry context.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sector_and_Industry_Context\"><\/span><strong>Sector and Industry Context<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:16px 0 22px 0;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Metric<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Sector<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Electricals<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Industry<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Cable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Scope<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">same industry<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Company P\/E Ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">50.76x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Median P\/E<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">27.7x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Average P\/E<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">34.69x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark P\/E Range<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">1.19x to 151.1x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Company P\/B Ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">7.29x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Median P\/B<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">3.01x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Average P\/B<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">-8.78x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Company ROE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">15.63%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Median ROE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">13.43%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Average ROE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">5.13%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Company ROCE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">21.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Median ROCE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">18.91%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Average ROCE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">19.35%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Company Market Capitalisation<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 49,425.51 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Median Market Cap<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 574.96 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\"><strong>Benchmark Average Market Cap<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:10px 12px;\">Rs 10,111.32 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The Electricals sector and Cable industry benchmark show why KEI Industries Share Price remains closely watched even after today\u2019s decline. Within the supplied same industry benchmark of 32 companies, KEI Industries\u2019 P\/E of 50.76 is above the median of 27.7 and the average of 34.69. That positions the stock on the richer side of the industry valuation spectrum, though still far below the benchmark maximum of 151.1 and well above the minimum of 1.19 across the 28 companies with P\/E data.<\/p>\n<p>The picture is more balanced on other ratios.

Against Polycab India, KEI trades at a slightly higher P\/E of 50.76 versus 46.43, but with lower ROE of 15.63 against 25.03 and lower ROCE of 21.47 against 34.93. RR Kabel trades at 48.75 times earnings, close to KEI, while also posting stronger ROE of 20.83 and ROCE of 28.43. Finolex Cables looks less expensive at a P\/E of 24.34 and P\/B of 3.09, with ROE of 13.42 and ROCE of 17.7, both below KEI\u2019s profitability profile.<\/p>\n<p>Sterlite Technologies stands out differently, with a much higher P\/E of 151.1 but weaker ROE of 2.73 and ROCE of 8.38. Diamond Power Infrastructure trades at a P\/E of 98.12 and P\/B of 20.26, while its listed ROE and ROCE are both 0. In market cap terms, KEI at Rs 49,425.51 crore sits below Polycab\u2019s Rs 1,32,610.86 crore but above RR Kabel\u2019s Rs 29,762.02 crore, Sterlite\u2019s Rs 36,685.55 crore, Finolex\u2019s Rs 18,232.66 crore and Diamond Power\u2019s Rs 19,760.27 crore. Univest therefore sees KEI Industries Share Price as positioned in the premium mid-to-upper end of this peer basket rather than at a discount.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Investors_Are_Watching_KEI_Industries\"><\/span><strong>Why Investors Are Watching KEI Industries<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sharp price action:<\/strong>&nbsp;The stock fell 5.72% to Rs 4,990 from Rs 5,292.5.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Intraday range:<\/strong>&nbsp;The session moved between Rs 5,069.95 and Rs 4,855.75 with turnover of Rs 8.81 crore.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Premium valuation:<\/strong>&nbsp;P\/E of 50.76 and P\/B of 7.29 remain above key industry medians.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Solid returns:<\/strong>&nbsp;ROE of 15.63 and ROCE of 21.47 are above the same-industry median levels.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Peer positioning:<\/strong>&nbsp;Market cap of Rs 49,425.51 crore keeps the company among the larger listed cable names.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_KEI_Industries\"><\/span><strong>About KEI Industries<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>KEI Industries operates in the Electricals sector and is classified within the Cable industry.
