Market cap was Rs 3,06,899.48 crore.<\/em><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0!important;\">NTPC Share Price is trading at Rs 309.75, down 2.13% today, with market capitalisation at Rs 3,06,899.48 crore. The move keeps NTPC in focus as a large cap power company and makes the latest NTPC Share Price update relevant for investors following power-sector stock news. According to Univest data, the stock opened at Rs 312.10, touched a high of Rs 316.30 and a low of Rs 309.65, so the day\u2019s price action shows a clear slip from the previous close of Rs 316.50. The latest NTPC Share Price action is therefore a factual price fall story rather than a broader commentary on company performance, and the numbers already point to the key question: what do valuation and sector benchmarks say now?<\/p>\n<p>Because no company-specific catalyst is established, the best reading of NTPC Share Price today is to separate the move from the fundamentals. The stock is one of the important names in the power pack, and the latest NTPC Stock News is being read alongside its P\/E ratio, P\/B ratio, ROE, ROCE, EPS and book value. In this update, Univest data helps frame both the price move and the company\u2019s standing within the sector.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy

6.75 decline from the previous close, with the stock at Rs 309.75 versus Rs 316.50 earlier. The day\u2019s range was tight but meaningful: the stock opened at Rs 312.10, touched Rs 316.30, and then moved to a low of Rs 309.65. That makes the current NTPC Share Price close to the session low, which is an important detail in any NTPC Share Price Today check. The company\u2019s market capitalisation remains Rs 3,06,899.48 crore, placing it in the Large Cap category. For readers tracking NTPC Share Price Live or NTPC Share Price Update movements, the key takeaway is simple: the stock is in a single-day decline, and the visible price action is already enough to justify a closer NTPC Stock Analysis while watching for the next trade-led update.<\/p>\n<p>For investors searching Why Is NTPC Falling Today, the verified answer is narrower than a narrative: the price event is confirmed, but no company-specific catalyst is established. That makes NTPC Share Price a market-data-led story for now, not a catalyst-led one. The next step is to see how the valuation stack and operating ratios shape NTPC Share Price news in a broader fundamental context.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NTPC_NTPC_Fundamental_Analysis\"><\/span><strong>NTPC (NTPC) 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 3,06,899.48 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;\">11.05x<\/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;\">1.47x<\/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;\">14.23%<\/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;\">8.52%<\/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 28.63<\/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 215.46<\/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;\">2.84%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>NTPC (NTPC) fundamental metrics show P\/E 11.05x, P\/B 1.47x, ROE 14.23%, ROCE 8.52%.

On valuation, P\/E at 11.05x, P\/B at 1.47x should be read against the sector and peer benchmarks rather than as a standalone signal. Profitability is represented by ROE of 14.23% and ROCE of 8.52%, helping investors compare shareholder returns and capital efficiency. According to latest Univest data, additional metrics include EPS of Rs 28.63, book value per share of Rs 215.46, dividend yield of 2.84%, 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 26.48x, median ROE of 9.66%, median ROCE of 8.5%.
