Trading in the share is thin, so prices can swing on small volumes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinery_Valuation_Is_It_Justified\"><\/span><strong>Aztec Fluids and Machinery Valuation: Is It Justified?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>At a P\/B ratio of 2.39, the market pays about Rs 2.39 for every rupee of book value, and the EPS (TTM) of Rs 5.45 is the earnings base behind the P\/E. The stock trades about 21 percent below its 52-week high and about 22 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. 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 Coding and Marking Equipment 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.

Aztec Fluids and Machinery has a 12.88% ROE and trades at 18.53x P\/E against a 22.60x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is below the 30.43% peer average and its P\/E is below the 44.61x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.29 is above 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_Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinery\"><\/span><strong>What is the current share price of Aztec Fluids and Machinery?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Aztec Fluids and Machinery was trading at Rs 101.00 on the BSE as of 22 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 83.00 to Rs 128.00. That leaves the share price 21 percent short of the 52-week high and 22 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 137 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 5.45, which is the earnings figure behind the 18.53x 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_Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinery_belong_to\"><\/span><strong>What sector does Aztec Fluids and Machinery belong to?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Aztec Fluids and Machinery is classified under the Coding and Marking Equipment sector on Univest, and that group of listed companies is the reference point for the 22.60x Industry P\/E used in this article. The 2 named peers compared here are Elgi Equipments and Ingersoll Rand (India), 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 Coding and Marking Equipment 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_Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinery_compare_to_its_sector_peers_on_PE\"><\/span><strong>How does Aztec Fluids and Machinery compare to its sector peers on P\/E?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Aztec Fluids and Machinery&#8217;s P\/E of 18.53x is below the 44.61x average of the 2 named peers, with Elgi Equipments at 40.61x and Ingersoll Rand (India) at 48.62x. It also sits below the 22.60x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Coding and Marking Equipment 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 2.39 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinerys_return_on_equity\"><\/span><strong>What is Aztec Fluids and Machinery&#8217;s return on equity?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Aztec Fluids and Machinery reported a return on equity of 12.88%, which is below the 30.43% average of its named peers, with Elgi Equipments at 19.28% and Ingersoll Rand (India) at 41.58%. 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 0.29 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_Aztec_Fluids_and_Machinery_based_on_its_sector_position\"><\/span><strong>Should I invest in Aztec Fluids and Machinery 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.

Aztec Fluids and Machinery has a 12.88% ROE and trades at 18.53x P\/E against a 22.60x Industry P\/E. Against the 2 peers compared in this article, its ROE is below the 30.43% peer average and its P\/E is below the 44.61x peer average. Its debt to equity ratio of 0.29 is above 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.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the current share price of Aztec Fluids and Machinery?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Aztec Fluids and Machinery was trading at Rs 101.00 on the BSE as of 22 October 2026, and its 52-week range runs from Rs 83.00 to Rs 128.00. That leaves the share price 21 percent short of the 52-week high and 22 percent clear of the 52-week low. Its market capitalisation is Rs 137 Cr and its EPS (TTM) is Rs 5.45, which is the earnings figure behind the 18.53x P\/E.

The 2 named peers compared here are Elgi Equipments and Ingersoll Rand (India), 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 Coding and Marking Equipment sector stocks on the Univest Screener, since no two companies in a sector have exactly the same business mix.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Aztec Fluids and Machinery compare to its sector peers on P\/E?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Aztec Fluids and Machinery's P\/E of 18.53x is below the 44.61x average of the 2 named peers, with Elgi Equipments at 40.61x and Ingersoll Rand (India) at 48.62x. It also sits below the 22.60x Industry P\/E, which is the benchmark for the wider Coding and Marking Equipment 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 2.39 gives one more view of how the market values its book value.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is Aztec Fluids and Machinery's return on equity?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Aztec Fluids and Machinery reported a return on equity of 12.88%, which is below the 30.43% average of its named peers, with Elgi Equipments at 19.28% and Ingersoll Rand (India) at 41.58%. 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 0.29 against a peer average of 0.12.
