Market cap was Rs 87,463.7 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">Persistent Systems Share Price traded at Rs 5,431 on 09 September 2026, down 2.12% or Rs 117.6 from the previous close of Rs 5,548.6, giving the large-cap IT company a market capitalisation of Rs 87,463.7 crore. The stock has become part of today\u2019s market conversation because the decline is visible early in the session, with price action moving between Rs 5,399 and Rs 5,477.15 and turnover at Rs 6.33 crore.<\/p>\n<p>For readers tracking Persistent Systems Share Price Today, the supplied data confirms the price fall but does not establish a company-specific catalyst. That makes today\u2019s move relevant mainly through verified market data: a lower opening at Rs 5,462.55, a negative day change, and a stock now trading below its 50-day moving average while still above its 200-day moving average. From a fundamental angle, Persistent Systems carries a P\/E ratio of 45.51, a P\/B ratio of 10.62, ROE of 27.2% and ROCE of 35.09%, which keeps valuation and profitability firmly in focus. On Univest, investors are likely to monitor whether this dip changes the broader technical setup, relative valuation and peer standing within the IT &#8211; Software industry.<\/p>\n<div

The stock opened at Rs 5,462.55 against the previous close of Rs 5,548.6, indicating weakness from the start, and then traded in an intraday band of Rs 5,399 to Rs 5,477.15 before quoting at Rs 5,431. That places the day change at negative Rs 117.6, or -2.12%.<\/p>\n<p>The range also shows that buyers appeared near the lower end of the session band, but not strongly enough to erase the fall. Turnover of Rs 6.33 crore confirms that the counter was active enough to draw attention in Stock Market Today and Share Market Today discussions, especially because Persistent Systems is classified as a Large Cap stock with a market cap of Rs 87,463.7 crore. For anyone following Persistent Systems Share Price Live or a short-term share price update, today\u2019s decline is most usefully read as a measurable pullback inside a widely tracked IT name. The next step is to see whether the broader setup still looks strong, weak or mixed when set against trend levels and valuation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Persistent_Systems_PERSISTENT_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Persistent Systems (PERSISTENT) 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 87,463.7 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;\">45.51x<\/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;\">10.62x<\/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;\">27.2%<\/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;\">35.09%<\/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 121.92<\/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 522.26<\/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;\">0.72%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Persistent Systems Fundamental Analysis remains important because today\u2019s price fall sits alongside a business that still screens strongly on profitability, even as valuation stays elevated versus many IT peers. At a market capitalisation of Rs 87,463.7 crore, the company is a sizeable listed software player. Its P\/E ratio stands at 45.51 and its P\/B ratio at 10.62, both of which place Persistent Systems Share Price in a premium bracket relative to broad industry medians, although not outside the industry\u2019s average P\/E range supplied in the benchmark data.<\/p>\n<p>Profitability metrics are robust. ROE is 27.2% and ROCE is 35.09%, both materially above the same-industry medians and averages supplied later in this article. EPS is Rs 121.92, which shows the earnings attributable to each share, while book value per share is Rs 522.26, indicating the accounting net worth backing each share. Dividend yield is 0.72, which points to a modest historical payout relative to the current stock price rather than a high-yield profile. Taken together, the supplied numbers suggest that Persistent Systems Share Price News is drawing interest because the stock combines strong returns ratios with a richer valuation multiple set. On Univest, that keeps the balance between quality and pricing at the centre of stock analysis.<\/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;\">IT<\/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;\">IT &#8211; Software<\/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;\">45.51x<\/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;\">23.42x<\/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;\">52.29x<\/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;\">0x to 1,021.46x<\/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;\">10.62x<\/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;\">2.14x<\/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;\">4.76x<\/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;\">27.2%<\/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;\">11.55%<\/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;\">9.12%<\/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;\">35.09%<\/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;\">13.63%<\/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;\">15.54%<\/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 87,463.7 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 237.02 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 12,225.09 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The sector picture shows why Persistent Systems Share Price is being judged not only on today\u2019s fall, but also against a very broad IT &#8211; Software benchmark. The supplied comparison covers the same industry and spans 233 companies, giving a meaningful reference set for valuation, profitability and market-cap context.<\/p>\n<p>Persistent Systems trades at a P\/E of 45.51. That is well above the industry median P\/E of 23.42, but below the industry average of 52.29. The benchmark range is wide, from 0 to 1,021.46 across 185 companies with P\/E data, so the company sits in the higher-valued half of the sector without being the extreme outlier. On price-to-book, Persistent Systems at 10.62 is far above the industry median of 2.14 and average of 4.76, within a range of -6.36 to 282.01 across 233 companies.<\/p>\n<p>Profitability tells a different story.
