The stock\u2019s market capitalisation stands at Rs 5,20,737.06 crore, placing Life Insurance Corporation of India in the Large Cap category. This move makes LICI Share Price Today a key market update for investors tracking insurance stocks and looking for fresh LICI Stock News. The supplied data confirms the price event, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst for the share price fall. Even so, the combination of today\u2019s decline, valuation data, and insurance-sector comparisons gives useful context for LICI Share Price News and broader stock analysis on Univest.<\/p>\n<p>The stock opened at Rs 401.00, touched a high of Rs 401.95 and a low of Rs 396.10 during the session. Turnover was Rs 1.78 crore. Against that backdrop, today\u2019s decline places LICI Share Price under near-term market attention, especially because the company\u2019s valuation and profitability metrics remain distinct from several listed insurance peers. Univest tracks such moves to help readers read price action, compare sector benchmarks, and separate verified facts from assumptions. The article below focuses on what the data shows today, why the fall is relevant, and what investors may monitor next without drawing unsupported conclusions.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

The stock closed at Rs 396.80 versus the previous close of Rs 411.65, a day change of Rs -14.85 and a day change percent of -3.61%. In intraday trading, LICI opened at Rs 401.00, moved to a high of Rs 401.95 and a low of Rs 396.10. That range shows the stock spent the session below the previous close, and the finish was close to the day\u2019s low.<\/p>\n<p>Turnover for the session stood at Rs 1.78 crore. This is a factual traded-value measure and should be read as part of the day\u2019s price record rather than as an explanation for the decline. Because LICI is a Large Cap company, today\u2019s move is best understood in the context of the company\u2019s size, market capitalisation and sector setting rather than through broad assumptions. For readers tracking LICI Share Price Fall, the most important point is simple: the stock declined today, and the supplied data does not establish a company-specific trigger. From here, the next step is to examine the fundamentals behind LICI Share Price Today and the valuation backdrop in the insurance sector.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Life_Insurance_Corporation_of_India_LICI_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>Life Insurance Corporation of India (LICI) 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 5,20,737.06 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;\">8.67x<\/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;\">2.67x<\/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;\">37.7%<\/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;\">37.75%<\/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 47.49<\/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 154.38<\/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;\">2.43%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>LICI Share Price News becomes more meaningful when the valuation and earnings data are placed alongside the day\u2019s fall. Life Insurance Corporation of India has a market capitalisation of Rs 5,20,737.06 crore, a P\/E ratio of 8.67, a P\/B ratio of 2.67, ROE of 37.7%, ROCE of 37.75%, EPS of 47.49, book value of Rs 154.38 and dividend yield of 2.43%. These numbers give a factual view of earnings, accounting value and shareholder returns per the supplied dataset.<\/p>\n<p>Within LICI Share Price Today, the low P\/E of 8.67 stands out against several listed insurance peers, while the ROE and ROCE figures are high relative to the sector benchmark table. EPS of 47.49 means earnings attributable to each share are substantial in the supplied data set, and book value of Rs 154.38 shows the accounting net worth behind each share. Dividend yield of 2.43% is a historical\/current income metric, not a promise of future payout. For investors reading LICI Stock News or LICI Fundamental Analysis, these figures suggest that today\u2019s share price fall happened against a backdrop of measurable profitability and valuation data, not in isolation. Univest uses this kind of company-level detail to place the move in context before moving to sector comparisons.<\/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;\">Insurance<\/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;\">Insurance<\/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;\">8.67x<\/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;\">40.5x<\/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;\">45.05x<\/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;\">6.93x to 111.22x<\/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;\">2.67x<\/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;\">4.37x<\/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;\">4.56x<\/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;\">37.7%<\/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;\">12.62%<\/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;\">13.63%<\/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;\">37.75%<\/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;\">11.82%<\/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;\">14.6%<\/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 5,20,737.06 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 61,518.04 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 1,03,660.73 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>LICI Share Price Today needs to be compared with the insurance industry benchmark to understand how its valuation sits within the sector.

Its P\/B of 2.67 is below the benchmark median of 4.37 and average of 4.56. On profitability, LICI\u2019s ROE of 37.7% is far above the benchmark median of 12.62 and average of 13.63, while ROCE of 37.75% is also above the benchmark median of 11.82 and average of 14.6.<\/p>\n<p>The sector dataset also shows market-cap context. LICI\u2019s market capitalisation of Rs 5,20,737.06 crore is above the benchmark median of Rs 61,518.04 crore and average of Rs 1,03,660.73 crore, and it is the highest figure in the supplied insurance group. This makes LICI Share Price especially important for readers searching for LICI NSE or LICI BSE updates within the insurance space. The insurance sector data does not explain today\u2019s decline, but it does show that the stock\u2019s valuation and profitability profile differ meaningfully from many peers. For LICI Stock Analysis, the key takeaway is that the day\u2019s price fall sits within a sector where valuation spans are wide and company-specific metrics vary sharply.<\/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\/sbilife\/sbi-life-insurance-company-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>SBI Life Insurance Company<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">SBILIFE<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,77,542.49<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">68.26<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">8.82<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">13.77<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">14.15<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/hdfclife\/hdfc-life-insurance-company-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>HDFC Life Insurance Company<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">HDFCLIFE<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1,19,959.5<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">60.73<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">6.13<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">11.54<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">10.01<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/icicigi\/icici-lombard-general-insurance-company-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">ICICIGI<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">74,341.71<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">30.62<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">4.37<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">17.9<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">23.62<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/icicipruli\/icici-prudential-life-insurance-company-ltd-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">ICICIPRULI<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">71,661.26<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">0<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">5.23<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">12.62<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">11.82<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/gicre\/general-insurance-corporation-of-india-share-price-today\" style=\"color:#0645AD;text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>General Insurance Corporation of India<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">GICRE<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">61,518.04<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">6.93<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">1.01<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">17.9<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #E3E7EE;padding:8px;\">22.43<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>LICI Share Price Today can also be read against the supplied peers in insurance.
