The stock trades about 13 percent below its 52-week high and about 69 percent above its 52-week low. The dividend yield of 1.35% is a modest income component, so returns depend mainly on the share price.

Supreme Petrochem has a 13.85% ROE and trades at 30.20x P\/E against a 15.12x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is below the 15.00% peer average and its P\/E is above the 14.81x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.06 is below the 0.12 peer average, which matters because borrowing can inflate returns and add risk when business conditions weaken. These figures are best read together rather than in isolation, and they work as a starting point for your own research and not as a verdict.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_current_share_price_of_Supreme_Petrochem\"><\/span><strong>What is the current share price of Supreme Petrochem?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Supreme Petrochem was trading at Rs 780.30 on the NSE as of 15 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 462.30 to Rs 899.00. That leaves the share price 13 percent short of the 52-week high and 69 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 14,659 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 25.81, which is the earnings figure behind the 30.20x P\/E. Share prices change through the trading day, so check the live quote on Univest before acting on any number here.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_sector_does_Supreme_Petrochem_belong_to\"><\/span><strong>What sector does Supreme Petrochem belong to?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Supreme Petrochem is classified under the Petrochemicals sector on Univest, and that group of listed companies is the reference point for the 15.12x Industry P\/E used in this article. The 2 named peers compared here are Styrenix Performance Materials and Bhansali Engineering Polymers, chosen as comparable listed names so that the P\/E, ROE and debt figures come from the same live data source. Investors who want a wider view can compare more Petrochemicals sector stocks on the Univest Screener, since no two companies in a sector have exactly the same business mix.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_Supreme_Petrochem_compare_to_its_sector_peers_on_PE\"><\/span><strong>How does Supreme Petrochem compare to its sector peers on P\/E?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Supreme Petrochem&#8217;s P\/E of 30.20x is above the 14.81x average of the 2 named peers, with Styrenix Performance Materials at 13.32x and Bhansali Engineering Polymers at 16.31x. It also sits above the 15.12x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Petrochemicals sector. A P\/E that is above a peer average can reflect a valuation discount or premium, but it can also reflect different growth or return expectations, so it should be read alongside ROE and debt. Its P\/B ratio of 6.18 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Supreme_Petrochems_return_on_equity\"><\/span><strong>What is Supreme Petrochem&#8217;s return on equity?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Supreme Petrochem reported a return on equity of 13.85%, which is below the 15.00% average of its named peers, with Styrenix Performance Materials at 13.38% and Bhansali Engineering Polymers at 16.63%. ROE shows how much profit a company generates on every rupee of shareholders&#8217; equity, so a higher figure generally points to more efficient use of capital. ROE is easier to trust when leverage is modest, and here the debt to equity ratio is 0.06 against a peer average of 0.12. It is worth checking whether the ROE has been stable over several years rather than relying on a single reading.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_I_invest_in_Supreme_Petrochem_based_on_its_sector_position\"><\/span><strong>Should I invest in Supreme Petrochem based on its sector position?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sector position is only one input into an investment decision. Supreme Petrochem has a 13.85% ROE and a 30.20x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 1.35%. You should also weigh its business outlook, earnings consistency, debt levels, your investment horizon and your own risk appetite before buying.

It also sits above the 15.12x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Petrochemicals sector. A P\/E that is above a peer average can reflect a valuation discount or premium, but it can also reflect different growth or return expectations, so it should be read alongside ROE and debt.

ROE shows how much profit a company generates on every rupee of shareholders' equity, so a higher figure generally points to more efficient use of capital. ROE is easier to trust when leverage is modest, and here the debt to equity ratio is 0.06 against a peer average of 0.12. It is worth checking whether the ROE has been stable over several years rather than relying on a single reading.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Should I invest in Supreme Petrochem based on its sector position?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Sector position is only one input into an investment decision.
