Market cap was Rs 73,831.01 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">NHPC Share Price fell to Rs 71.01 today, down 2.59% from the previous close of Rs 72.90, with market capitalisation at Rs 73,831.01 crore. According to latest Univest figures, the move keeps NHPC Share Price in focus for investors tracking the power space, especially because the company remains a Large Cap name and the decline came without a company-specific catalyst being established. NHPC Share Price Today also matters because the stock moved from an opening level of Rs 72.65 to an intraday high of Rs 72.90 before touching a low of Rs 70.65. For readers searching NHPC Stock News or NHPC Share Price News, the verified picture is simple: the stock is trading lower, the price event is confirmed, and the available numbers point to a valuation-led market discussion rather than a disclosed event trigger. Univest is tracking the move as part of NHPC Share Price live coverage.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey

intraday decline from Rs 72.90 in the previous session to Rs 71.01 in the current trade, a fall of Rs 1.89 or 2.59%. The stock opened at Rs 72.65, touched a high of Rs 72.90 and a low of Rs 70.65, which places the move within a narrow trading band so far. As a Large Cap stock with market capitalisation of Rs 73,831.01 crore, NHPC Share Price is attracting attention because the decline is visible in the live price rather than in any announced corporate event. The current move is also relevant for anyone following NHPC Share Price Update or NHPC Share Price Live, because the stock is trading below the previous close and near the lower end of the intraday range. That makes NHPC Share Price useful to monitor alongside fundamentals and sector context.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NHPC_NHPC_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>NHPC (NHPC) 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 73,831.01 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;\">19.29x<\/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;\">1.73x<\/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;\">10.41%<\/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;\">6.16%<\/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 3.78<\/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 42.17<\/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;\">2.21%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>NHPC (NHPC) fundamental metrics show P\/E 19.29x, P\/B 1.73x, ROE 10.41%, ROCE 6.16%.

On valuation, P\/E at 19.29x, P\/B at 1.73x should be read against the sector and peer benchmarks rather than as a standalone signal. Profitability is represented by ROE of 10.41% and ROCE of 6.16%, helping investors compare shareholder returns and capital efficiency. According to latest Univest data, additional metrics include EPS of Rs 3.78, book value per share of Rs 42.17, dividend yield of 2.21%, 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 27.3x, median ROE of 9.87%, median ROCE of 8.51%.
