Market cap was Rs 50,384.39 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">Ipca Laboratories Share Price fell to Rs 1,911 on 03 September 2026 at 11:19:38 AM IST, down 2.32% for the day, taking the company\u2019s market capitalisation to Rs 50,384.39 crore. The stock declined by Rs 45.35 from its previous close of Rs 1,956.35, making it one of the healthcare names drawing attention in today\u2019s market update.<\/p>\n<p>For investors tracking<strong>Ipca Laboratories Share Price<\/strong>today, the verified data confirms a meaningful single-session decline, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst behind the move. The stock is trending because the price action was notable within a Large Cap pharmaceutical name, while its valuation and profitability metrics remain important: P\/E stands at 37.89, P\/B at 5.85, ROE at 15.88 and ROCE at 19.41. Investors may also watch how the stock behaves around its intraday low of Rs 1,907.6, how it compares with sector benchmarks, and whether its premium multiples remain supported by returns on capital. Univest data also shows the stock still trading above its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which adds useful context even on a down day.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65

low of Rs 1,907.6 before trading at Rs 1,911. The gap between the day\u2019s high of Rs 1,970.2 and low shows a broad trading band, while turnover stood at Rs 6.77 crore.<\/p>\n<p>The stock started slightly above the previous close of Rs 1,956.35, touched Rs 1,970.2 early in trade, and then lost ground to Rs 1,907.6. At Rs 1,911, the decline of Rs 45.35 translates into a 2.32% fall for the session. That sequence suggests that early strength did not hold and that sellers had the upper hand through much of the day. Because this is a Large Cap company in the Pharmaceuticals &amp; Drugs industry, today\u2019s decline matters not only as a price move but also as a signal that investors are reassessing near-term positioning. On Univest, this kind of share price fall becomes more useful when read alongside valuation, sector benchmarks and longer-term trend markers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ipca_Laboratories_IPCALAB_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Ipca Laboratories (IPCALAB) 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 50,384.39 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;\">37.89x<\/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;\">5.85x<\/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;\">15.88%<\/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;\">19.41%<\/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 51.63<\/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 334.38<\/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;\">0.31%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Ipca Laboratories Fundamental Analysis<\/strong>shows a Large Cap healthcare company with a market capitalisation of Rs 50,384.39 crore trading at a P\/E ratio of 37.89 and a P\/B ratio of 5.85. Those valuation multiples need to be read together with profitability, where ROE stands at 15.88 and ROCE at 19.41.<\/p>\n<p>EPS is Rs 51.63, which indicates the earnings attributable to each share based on the supplied data. Book value per share is Rs 334.38, offering the accounting net worth behind each share, while the dividend yield is 0.31, showing a relatively modest historical payout relative to the current stock price. On a simple valuation-to-profitability reading, the company is not cheap on headline multiples alone, but its return ratios are stronger than many industry benchmark levels. That balance helps explain why<strong>Ipca Laboratories Share Price<\/strong>remains on investor watchlists even during a down session. For readers on Univest, the key question is whether current valuation is being supported by sustained operating quality and relative sector positioning rather than by sentiment alone.<\/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;\">Healthcare<\/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;\">Pharmaceuticals &amp; Drugs<\/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;\">37.89x<\/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;\">31.97x<\/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;\">48.6x<\/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;\">3.49x to 648.54x<\/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;\">5.85x<\/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;\">2.87x<\/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;\">4.35x<\/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;\">15.88%<\/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;\">11.79%<\/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;\">11.15%<\/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;\">19.41%<\/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;\">13.69%<\/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 50,384.39 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 727.27 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 14,141.34 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The sector data places Ipca Laboratories in Healthcare, specifically Pharmaceuticals &amp; Drugs, and compares it with companies in the same industry.

On P\/B, the company\u2019s 5.85 is higher than the median of 2.87 and the average of 4.35, against a range of -10.61 to 27.8 across 200 companies. Profitability looks firmer: ROE at 15.88 is above the industry median of 11.79 and average of 11.15, while ROCE at 19.41 is above the median of 13.63 and average of 13.69. Market capitalisation also stands out. At Rs 50,384.39 crore, Ipca is well above the industry median market cap of Rs 727.27 crore and the average of Rs 14,141.34 crore, though still far below the industry maximum of Rs 4,63,179.62 crore. On Univest, that combination points to a sizeable listed pharma company with above-benchmark returns but also above-benchmark valuation.<\/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\/sunpharma\/sun-pharmaceutical-industries-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Sun Pharmaceutical Industries<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">SUNPHARMA<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">4,63,179.62<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">38.34<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">5.36<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">14.85<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">19.11<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><strong>Divi&#39;s Laboratories<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">DIVISLAB<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">2,43,301.95<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">83.79<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">13.88<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">16.19<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">21.51<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/torntpharm\/torrent-pharmaceuticals-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Torrent Pharmaceuticals<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">TORNTPHARM<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,88,622.52<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">87.28<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">21.21<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">26.76<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">19.27<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/zyduslife\/zydus-lifesciences-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Zydus Lifesciences<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">ZYDUSLIFE<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,16,114.43<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">25.44<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">4.26<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">19.69<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">21.39<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/cipla\/cipla-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Cipla<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">CIPLA<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,14,554.33<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">33.87<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">3.25<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">11.83<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">16<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Peer comparison shows Ipca sitting in the middle of the large listed pharma pack on valuation, while its profitability metrics compare reasonably well with several bigger names. The stock is neither the cheapest nor the most expensive among major peers supplied in the dataset.<\/p>\n<p>Ipca\u2019s market cap of Rs 50,384.39 crore is far smaller than Sun Pharmaceutical Industries at Rs 4,63,179.62 crore and Divi&#8217;s Laboratories at Rs 2,43,301.95 crore, but it also means the company is being evaluated against much larger benchmarks. Its P\/E of 37.89 is close to Sun Pharma\u2019s 38.34, above Cipla\u2019s 33.87 and Zydus Lifesciences\u2019 25.44, yet well below Divi&#8217;s 83.79 and Torrent Pharmaceuticals\u2019 87.28.

Profitability is respectable rather than category-leading: ROE of 15.88 is above Sun Pharma\u2019s 14.85 and Cipla\u2019s 11.83, but below Divi&#8217;s 16.19, Zydus\u2019 19.69 and Torrent\u2019s 26.76. ROCE of 19.41 is slightly above Sun Pharma\u2019s 19.11 and Cipla\u2019s 16, broadly around Torrent\u2019s 19.27, but below Divi&#8217;s 21.51 and Zydus\u2019 21.39.
