Market cap was Rs 2,51,490.99 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">Hindustan Zinc Share Price was at Rs 593.8 on 10 September 2026 at 3:23:03 PM IST, down 2.01% for the day, taking the company\u2019s market capitalisation to Rs 2,51,490.99 crore. The stock has drawn attention in today\u2019s Stock Market Today because the price move is clear, the company remains a Large Cap name, and the supplied data also shows notable valuation and profitability metrics.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s decline took the stock below its previous close of Rs 606 after opening at Rs 609. The verified data confirms the price event, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst for why the stock is falling today. Even so, Hindustan Zinc Stock News is trending because investors are tracking the combination of intraday weakness, strong return ratios, a P\/E ratio of 15 and how those figures compare with the broader Non &#8211; Ferrous Metals industry. On Univest, the stock also stands out because its market cap is the highest within the supplied same-industry benchmark set of 32 companies.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65

The company\u2019s market capitalisation of Rs 2,51,490.99 crore places it firmly in the Large Cap bucket, while its P\/E ratio of 15 sits below the same-industry median of 20.02 and average of 24.4. That indicates the stock is not trading at the richer end of the sector\u2019s earnings multiples based on the supplied benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the P\/B ratio is 9.11, which is far above the industry median of 1.95 and average of 2.44. That points to a much stronger valuation on book value terms. Profitability metrics are striking: ROE stands at 76.94% and ROCE at 69.83%, both well above the industry medians of 16.91% and 18.91% and also ahead of the averages of 24.25% and 27.25%. EPS is Rs 40.39, showing the earnings attributable to each share, while book value per share is Rs 66.5, showing the accounting net worth behind each share. The dividend yield is 1.65%, which reflects the historical payout relative to the current price. Together, these numbers keep Hindustan Zinc Earnings and Hindustan Zinc Financial Results closely watched on Univest.<\/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;\">Non &#8211; Ferrous Metals<\/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;\">Metal &#8211; Non Ferrous<\/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;\">15x<\/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;\">20.02x<\/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;\">24.4x<\/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;\">5.44x to 138.5x<\/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;\">9.11x<\/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;\">1.95x<\/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;\">2.44x<\/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;\">76.94%<\/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;\">16.91%<\/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;\">24.25%<\/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;\">69.83%<\/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;\">27.25%<\/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 2,51,490.99 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 442.64 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 21,545.18 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Hindustan Zinc Share Price is best understood in the context of the Non &#8211; Ferrous Metals sector and the Metal &#8211; Non Ferrous industry benchmark supplied for 32 companies.

The benchmark range runs from 5.44 to 138.5. By contrast, the company\u2019s P\/B of 9.11 is above the benchmark median of 1.95 and average of 2.44, though still below the maximum of 13.93, while the minimum is -32.46. On profitability, Hindustan Zinc\u2019s ROE of 76.94% stands far above the benchmark median of 16.91% and average of 24.25%. Its ROCE of 69.83% also exceeds the median of 18.91% and average of 27.25%. Market-cap context is equally notable: the industry median market cap is Rs 442.64 crore, the average is Rs 21,545.18 crore, the minimum is Rs 11.87 crore, and the maximum is Rs 2,51,490.99 crore, exactly where Hindustan Zinc sits. That scale helps explain why today\u2019s move features prominently in Market News and sector tracking on Univest.<\/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\/hindalco\/hindalco-industries-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Hindalco Industries<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">HINDALCO<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">2,27,228.31<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">14.05<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.6<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10.26<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10.45<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/vedl\/vedanta-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Vedanta<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">VEDL<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,06,167.04<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">5.44<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.96<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">27.59<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">18.72<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/hindcopper\/hindustan-copper-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Hindustan Copper<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">HINDCOPPER<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">51,508.53<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">45.29<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">13.93<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">30.67<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">39.44<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/vogl\/malco-energy-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>MALCO Energy<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">VOGL<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">14,179.07<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">0<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">-32.46<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">0<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/gravita\/gravita-india-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Gravita India<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">GRAVITA<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">12,433.03<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">31.97<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">4.9<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">16.73<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">17.18<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Hindustan Zinc Share Price also attracts interest because peer numbers show a distinct mix of valuation restraint on earnings and very high profitability.
