The stock trades about 21 percent below its 52-week high and about 94 percent above its 52-week low. The dividend yield of 0.43% is a modest income component, so returns depend mainly on the share price. As with any single stock, investors should weigh these figures against their own valuation discipline and risk appetite rather than the sector label alone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-style:italic;color:#000000;margin:14px 0;\">Also read &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs\/ofss-best-stock-in-its-sector\">Is Oracle Financial Services Software the Best Stock in Its Sector?

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. 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.

Nitta Gelatin India has a 19.02% ROE and trades at 14.39x P\/E against a 36.42x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is above the 12.82% peer average and its P\/E is below the 38.09x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.01 is below the 0.25 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_Nitta_Gelatin_India\"><\/span><strong>What is the current share price of Nitta Gelatin India?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Nitta Gelatin India was trading at Rs 1,640.70 on the NSE as of 16 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 847.05 to Rs 2,087.20. That leaves the share price 21 percent short of the 52-week high and 94 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 1,485 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 113.71, which is the earnings figure behind the 14.39x 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_Nitta_Gelatin_India_belong_to\"><\/span><strong>What sector does Nitta Gelatin India belong to?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Nitta Gelatin India 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 Vishnu Chemicals and Fineotex Chemical, 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_Nitta_Gelatin_India_compare_to_its_sector_peers_on_PE\"><\/span><strong>How does Nitta Gelatin India compare to its sector peers on P\/E?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Nitta Gelatin India&#8217;s P\/E of 14.39x is below the 38.09x average of the 2 named peers, with Vishnu Chemicals at 29.09x and Fineotex Chemical at 47.09x. It also sits below the 36.42x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Chemicals 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 2.96 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Nitta_Gelatin_Indias_return_on_equity\"><\/span><strong>What is Nitta Gelatin India&#8217;s return on equity?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Nitta Gelatin India reported a return on equity of 19.02%, which is above the 12.82% average of its named peers, with Vishnu Chemicals at 13.31% and Fineotex Chemical at 12.32%. 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 0.25. 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_Nitta_Gelatin_India_based_on_its_sector_position\"><\/span><strong>Should I invest in Nitta Gelatin India 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. Nitta Gelatin India has a 19.02% ROE and a 14.39x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 0.43%.

Nitta Gelatin India has a 19.02% ROE and trades at 14.39x P\/E against a 36.42x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is above the 12.82% peer average and its P\/E is below the 38.09x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.01 is below the 0.25 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 Nitta Gelatin India?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Nitta Gelatin India was trading at Rs 1,640.70 on the NSE as of 16 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 847.05 to Rs 2,087.20. That leaves the share price 21 percent short of the 52-week high and 94 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 1,485 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 113.71, which is the earnings figure behind the 14.39x 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 Nitta Gelatin India belong to?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Nitta Gelatin India 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 Vishnu Chemicals and Fineotex Chemical, 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.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Nitta Gelatin India compare to its sector peers on P\/E?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Nitta Gelatin India's P\/E of 14.39x is below the 38.09x average of the 2 named peers, with Vishnu Chemicals at 29.09x and Fineotex Chemical at 47.09x. It also sits below the 36.42x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Chemicals 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 2.96 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is Nitta Gelatin India's return on equity?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Nitta Gelatin India reported a return on equity of 19.02%, which is above the 12.82% average of its named peers, with Vishnu Chemicals at 13.31% and Fineotex Chemical at 12.32%. 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 0.25. 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 Nitta Gelatin India based on its sector position?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Sector position is only one input into an investment decision. Nitta Gelatin India has a 19.02% ROE and a 14.39x P\/E, which make it worth researching further, and its dividend yield is 0.43%. You should also weigh its business outlook, earnings consistency, debt levels, your investment horizon and your own risk appetite before buying.
