Market cap was Rs 39,680.72 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">JK Cement Share Price fell to Rs 4,970 on 02 September 2026, down 2.15% for the day, taking the company\u2019s market capitalisation to Rs 39,680.72 crore. The stock declined by Rs 109.3 from its previous close of Rs 5,079.3, making JK Cement Stock News relevant for investors tracking today\u2019s price action in the Construction Materials space.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s move matters because the data confirms a clear same-day decline in a large-cap cement stock, even though the supplied figures do not establish a company-specific catalyst behind the fall. JK Cement Share Price Today opened at Rs 5,015.25, touched a high of Rs 5,051.85 and a low of Rs 4,960.55, showing that weakness persisted through the session. For investors following JK Cement Share Price Live and broader Stock Market Today trends, the focus now shifts to what this decline says about price positioning, valuation and sector standing.<\/p>\n<p>At Univest, the immediate questions are straightforward: what exactly happened in the session, how does the current valuation compare with peers, and whether the company\u2019s profitability metrics still support investor attention despite today\u2019s decline.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey

the afternoon. The stock opened at Rs 5,015.25 against a previous close of Rs 5,079.3, indicating an already softer start, and then moved within a day range of Rs 4,960.55 to Rs 5,051.85 before settling at Rs 4,970 at the time of this update.<\/p>\n<p>That intraday pattern suggests selling pressure remained visible after the open, with the low only around Rs 9.45 below the quoted price, while the high stayed Rs 81.85 above it. The day\u2019s absolute fall was Rs 109.3, equal to a 2.15% decline, and turnover stood at Rs 1.29 crore. As a Large Cap company with a market cap of Rs 39,680.72 crore, JK Cement Share Price carries more analytical weight than a short-term move in a smaller counter because investors often compare such price action with valuation strength and industry positioning.<\/p>\n<p>For JK Cement Share News readers, the next step is not speculation about causes but a closer look at whether the stock\u2019s current level lines up with its broader trading position and fundamental profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"JK_Cement_JKCEMENT_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>JK Cement (JKCEMENT) 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 39,680.72 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;\">41.51x<\/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;\">5.37x<\/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;\">15.05%<\/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;\">14.89%<\/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 122.37<\/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 946.3<\/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;\">0.39%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>JK Cement Fundamental Analysis shows a company that still posts stronger profitability metrics than many industry benchmarks, even after today\u2019s share price fall. At a market capitalisation of Rs 39,680.72 crore, the company trades at a P\/E ratio of 41.51 and a P\/B ratio of 5.37. Those two multiples place valuation at a premium to several cement peers and above the sector median on some measures, so today\u2019s decline does not automatically make the stock look inexpensive on supplied data.<\/p>\n<p>The profitability side is more supportive. Return on equity stands at 15.05% and return on capital employed at 14.89%, both of which indicate healthy returns relative to much of the Cement &amp; Construction Materials universe cited in the benchmark set. EPS is Rs 122.37, which captures the earnings attributable to each share, while book value per share is Rs 946.3, showing the accounting net worth behind each share. The dividend yield is 0.39%, a historical payout measure relative to the current stock price rather than a promise of future distribution.<\/p>\n<p>In simple terms, JK Cement Share Price is being discussed not because the company looks weak on profitability, but because a premium valuation is now meeting a day of weaker market pricing. That makes sector comparison especially important for investors using Univest for 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;\">Construction Materials<\/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;\">Cement &amp; Construction Materials<\/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;\">41.51x<\/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;\">29.85x<\/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;\">47.96x<\/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;\">8.56x to 347.25x<\/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;\">5.37x<\/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;\">1.19x<\/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;\">1.46x<\/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;\">15.05%<\/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;\">3.92%<\/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;\">-6.9%<\/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;\">14.89%<\/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;\">6.41%<\/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;\">-0.54%<\/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 39,680.72 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 1,115.42 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 17,930.07 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>JK Cement Share Price is best understood in the context of the Construction Materials sector and, more specifically, the Cement &amp; Construction Materials industry benchmark supplied here. Within a same-industry universe of 41 companies, JK Cement\u2019s P\/E ratio of 41.51 sits above the median P\/E of 29.85 but below the average of 47.96. The industry valuation range is wide, from 8.56 to 347.25 across 27 companies with P\/E data, which shows that headline multiples vary sharply within the space.<\/p>\n<p>On price-to-book, JK Cement\u2019s 5.37 stands well above the benchmark median of 1.19 and average of 1.46, though still below the maximum of 8.96 in the same 41-company sample. Profitability tells a different story. The company\u2019s ROE of 15.05% is far above the industry median of 3.92% and also above the average of -6.9%. Its ROCE of 14.89% similarly exceeds the median of 6.41% and the average of -0.54%.<\/p>\n<p>Market-cap context also matters. JK Cement\u2019s Rs 39,680.72 crore market value is above the industry median of Rs 1,115.42 crore and the average of Rs 17,930.07 crore, although well below the maximum of Rs 3,38,881.05 crore. For investors tracking JK Cement Market Cap and sector analysis on Univest, this points to a business that is relatively large and more profitable than benchmark medians, but also valued at a richer multiple than the sector\u2019s middle ground.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Peer_Comparison\"><\/span><strong>Peer Comparison<\/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:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Company<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Symbol<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">Market Cap (Cr)<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">P\/E<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">P\/B<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">ROE (%)<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;background:#F7F9FC;\">ROCE (%)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ultracemco\/ultratech-cement-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Ultratech Cement<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">ULTRACEMCO<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">3,38,881.05<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">39.34<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">4.25<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">11.14<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">13.25<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ambujacem\/ambuja-cements-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Ambuja Cements<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">AMBUJACEM<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,00,063.59<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">22.87<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.67<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">6.24<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/shreecem\/shree-cement-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Shree Cement<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">SHREECEM<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">85,520.39<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">51.9<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">3.56<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">7.81<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10.61<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/dalbharat\/dalmia-bharat-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Dalmia Bharat<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">DALBHARAT<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">34,653.75<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">36.36<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.87<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">6.55<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">8.15<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/acc\/acc-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>ACC<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">ACC<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">23,997.33<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">12.52<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.15<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10.93<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">11.6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>JK Cement Share Price also draws attention because peer numbers show a mix of premium valuation and comparatively solid profitability. Against UltraTech Cement, JK Cement trades at a slightly higher P\/E of 41.51 versus 39.34 and a higher P\/B of 5.37 versus 4.25, but it also posts stronger ROE of 15.05% versus 11.14% and a higher ROCE of 14.89% versus 13.25%. That suggests the premium is at least partly supported by returns.<\/p>\n<p>Versus Ambuja Cements, Dalmia Bharat and ACC, JK Cement\u2019s valuation is clearly higher, as those peers trade at P\/E multiples of 22.87, 36.36 and 12.52 respectively. Yet JK Cement also leads these peers on ROE and ROCE in the supplied comparison set, except that UltraTech remains close on operating efficiency. Shree Cement trades at a higher P\/E of 51.9 despite lower ROE of 7.81% and ROCE of 10.61%, which places JK Cement somewhere between premium-quality pricing and premium-sector optimism.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalisation of Rs 39,680.72 crore is above Dalmia Bharat and ACC, but below UltraTech, Ambuja and Shree Cement. For investors watching JK Cement Stock Performance, that peer positioning suggests the stock is not the cheapest in the pack, but its return ratios compare favourably with several larger and smaller rivals.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Investors_Are_Watching_JK_Cement\"><\/span><strong>Why Investors Are Watching JK Cement<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>JK Cement Share Price fell 2.15% to Rs 4,970 in today\u2019s session.<\/li>\n<li>The stock moved below both its previous close of Rs 5,079.3 and opening price of Rs 5,015.25.<\/li>\n<li>Its P\/E of 41.51 is above the industry median of 29.85, keeping valuation in focus.<\/li>\n<li>ROE of 15.05% and ROCE of 14.89% are stronger than industry medians.<\/li>\n<li>The company sits in the large-cap bracket within the Cement &amp; Construction Materials space.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_JK_Cement\"><\/span><strong>About JK Cement<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>JK Cement operates in the Construction Materials sector and is classified within the Cement &amp; Construction Materials industry.
