Market cap was Rs 5,312.28 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">Hindustan Construction Company Share Price moved lower today, with HCC trading at Rs 18.75 after a 5.3% decline from the previous close of Rs 19.80. The company\u2019s market capitalisation stood at Rs 5,312.28 crore, keeping Hindustan Construction Company in the Mid Cap category. Univest figures confirm the price action, but they do not point to a specific company trigger. In that setting, the move is relevant because it resets attention on Hindustan Construction Company Share Price Today, HCC Stock News and the broader Hindustan Construction Company Share Price fall without inviting unsupported assumptions about the reason for the decline. Univest data also shows that the stock is being tracked alongside infrastructure peers on valuation and return metrics, which helps frame the latest move in a sector context.<\/p>\n<div

October 2026 at 3:22:56 PM IST. The stock is down Rs 1.05, or 5.3%, from the previous close of Rs 19.80. That makes HCC Share Price Today a clear same-day price fall rather than a session-neutral move. The trading range shows that the stock was closer to its low than its high, with the day\u2019s low at Rs 18.71 and current price just above it. Market capitalisation of Rs 5,312.28 crore places Hindustan Construction Company in the Mid Cap bucket, which is the category used throughout this article. For readers following Hindustan Construction Company Share Price Live, the main takeaway is the size of the decline and where the stock stands within the day\u2019s range, not a cause that has not been verified. That price action sets up the wider Hindustan Construction Company Stock Analysis and the fundamental comparison that follows.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hindustan_Construction_Company_HCC_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) 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 5,312.28 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;\">31.27x<\/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;\">2.38x<\/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;\">10.92%<\/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;\">24.16%<\/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 0.63<\/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 8.31<\/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%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) fundamental metrics show P\/E 31.27x, P\/B 2.38x, ROE 10.92%, ROCE 24.16%. Taken on their own, these numbers offer context rather than a trading signal.<\/p>\n<p>Hindustan Construction Company has a market capitalisation of Rs 5,312.28 crore and falls in the Mid Cap category, which gives readers a sense of company size before judging valuation. On valuation, P\/E at 31.27x, P\/B at 2.38x should be read against the sector and peer benchmarks rather than as a standalone signal. Profitability is represented by ROE of 10.92% and ROCE of 24.16%, helping investors compare shareholder returns and capital efficiency. According to latest Univest data, additional metrics include EPS of Rs 0.63, book value per share of Rs 8.31, dividend yield of 0%, adding context to earnings, balance-sheet value and historical payout. Against the latest Univest same industry benchmark, these figures can be compared with benchmark median P\/E of 14.73x, median ROE of 11.24%, median ROCE of 15.35%.
