The stock trades about 26 percent below its 52-week high and about 35 percent above its 52-week low. The company does not currently show a dividend yield, so returns for shareholders depend mainly on the share price.

Whether it earns the label of best stock in IT depends on how much weight you give each of them and on how the business executes from here. Because the stock trades below its sector benchmark, the open question is whether earnings growth will close that gap or whether the discount is deserved. As with any individual stock decision, this analysis is educational and investors should do their own research or consult a SEBI-registered advisor before investing.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#CC0000;border-radius:8px;padding:16px 20px;margin:24px 0;\">\n<p style=\"color:#FFFFFF;font-size:13px;line-height:1.7;margin:0;\"><strong style=\"color:#FFFFFF;\">Disclaimer:<\/strong> Data and figures in this article are sourced from publicly available information.

Expleo Solutions has a 15.97% ROE and trades at 9.80x P\/E against an 18.49x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is above the 14.96% peer average and its P\/E is below the 13.60x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.01 is below the 0.08 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_Expleo_Solutions\"><\/span><strong>What is the current share price of Expleo Solutions?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Expleo Solutions was trading at Rs 866.85 on the NSE as of 16 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 640.00 to Rs 1,175.10. That leaves the share price 26 percent short of the 52-week high and 35 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 1,349 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 88.75, which is the earnings figure behind the 9.80x 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_Expleo_Solutions_belong_to\"><\/span><strong>What sector does Expleo Solutions belong to?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Expleo Solutions is classified under the IT sector on Univest, and that group of listed companies is the reference point for the 18.49x Industry P\/E used in this article. The 2 named peers compared here are Mastek and Zensar Technologies, 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 IT 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_Expleo_Solutions_compare_to_its_sector_peers_on_PE\"><\/span><strong>How does Expleo Solutions compare to its sector peers on P\/E?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Expleo Solutions&#8217; P\/E of 9.80x is below the 13.60x average of the 2 named peers, with Mastek at 12.82x and Zensar Technologies at 14.38x. It also sits below the 18.49x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider IT sector. A P\/E that is below 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 1.74 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Expleo_Solutions_return_on_equity\"><\/span><strong>What is Expleo Solutions&#8217; return on equity?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Expleo Solutions reported a return on equity of 15.97%, which is above the 14.96% average of its named peers, with Mastek at 13.50% and Zensar Technologies at 16.41%. 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 0.01 against a peer average of 0.08. 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_Expleo_Solutions_based_on_its_sector_position\"><\/span><strong>Should I invest in Expleo Solutions 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. Expleo Solutions has a 15.97% ROE and a 9.80x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 0.00%. You should also weigh its business outlook, earnings consistency, debt levels, your investment horizon and your own risk appetite before buying.

Expleo Solutions has a 15.97% ROE and trades at 9.80x P\/E against an 18.49x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is above the 14.96% peer average and its P\/E is below the 13.60x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.01 is below the 0.08 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.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the current share price of Expleo Solutions?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Expleo Solutions was trading at Rs 866.85 on the NSE as of 16 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 640.00 to Rs 1,175.10. That leaves the share price 26 percent short of the 52-week high and 35 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 1,349 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 88.75, which is the earnings figure behind the 9.80x P\/E. Share prices change through the trading day, so check the live quote on Univest before acting on any number here.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What sector does Expleo Solutions belong to?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Expleo Solutions is classified under the IT sector on Univest, and that group of listed companies is the reference point for the 18.49x Industry P\/E used in this article. The 2 named peers compared here are Mastek and Zensar Technologies, 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 IT sector stocks on the Univest Screener, since no two companies in a sector have exactly the same business mix.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Expleo Solutions compare to its sector peers on P\/E?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Expleo Solutions' P\/E of 9.80x is below the 13.60x average of the 2 named peers, with Mastek at 12.82x and Zensar Technologies at 14.38x. It also sits below the 18.49x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider IT sector. A P\/E that is below 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 1.74 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is Expleo Solutions' return on equity?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Expleo Solutions reported a return on equity of 15.97%, which is above the 14.96% average of its named peers, with Mastek at 13.50% and Zensar Technologies at 16.41%. 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 0.01 against a peer average of 0.08. 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 Expleo Solutions based on its sector position?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Sector position is only one input into an investment decision. Expleo Solutions has a 15.97% ROE and a 9.80x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 0.00%. You should also weigh its business outlook, earnings consistency, debt levels, your investment horizon and your own risk appetite before buying. Spreading money across several stocks and sectors reduces concentration risk, and this article is educational content, not investment advice.
