The stock trades about 16 percent below its 52-week high and about 2.1 times its 52-week low. The dividend yield of 0.08% is a modest income component, so returns depend mainly on the share price.

Whether it earns the label of best stock in Chemicals depends on how much weight you give each of them and on how the business executes from here.

Acutaas Chemicals has a 21.54% ROE and trades at 66.23x P\/E against a 36.42x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is above the 14.84% peer average and its P\/E is above the 32.53x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.02 is above the 0.01 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_Acutaas_Chemicals\"><\/span><strong>What is the current share price of Acutaas Chemicals?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Acutaas Chemicals was trading at Rs 3,132.50 on the NSE as of 16 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 1,476.10 to Rs 3,740.00. That leaves the share price 16 percent short of the 52-week high and 2.1 times the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 25,655 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 47.31, which is the earnings figure behind the 66.23x 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_Acutaas_Chemicals_belong_to\"><\/span><strong>What sector does Acutaas Chemicals belong to?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Acutaas Chemicals is classified under the Chemicals sector on Univest, and that group of listed companies is the reference point for the 36.42x Industry P\/E used in this article. The 2 named peers compared here are Vinati Organics and Fine Organic Industries, 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 Chemicals 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_Acutaas_Chemicals_compare_to_its_sector_peers_on_PE\"><\/span><strong>How does Acutaas Chemicals compare to its sector peers on P\/E?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Acutaas Chemicals&#8217; P\/E of 66.23x is above the 32.53x average of the 2 named peers, with Vinati Organics at 26.50x and Fine Organic Industries at 38.57x. It also sits above the 36.42x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Chemicals 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 15.51 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Acutaas_Chemicals_return_on_equity\"><\/span><strong>What is Acutaas Chemicals&#8217; return on equity?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Acutaas Chemicals reported a return on equity of 21.54%, which is above the 14.84% average of its named peers, with Vinati Organics at 14.03% and Fine Organic Industries at 15.65%. 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 0.02 against a peer average of 0.01. 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_Acutaas_Chemicals_based_on_its_sector_position\"><\/span><strong>Should I invest in Acutaas Chemicals 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. Acutaas Chemicals has a 21.54% ROE and a 66.23x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 0.08%. You should also weigh its business outlook, earnings consistency, debt levels, your investment horizon and your own risk appetite before buying.

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 Acutaas Chemicals based on its sector position?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Sector position is only one input into an investment decision.
