A point to keep in view: debt is higher than most names on this list.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><em>Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/univest-stocks-investment\/id6443753518\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest iOS App<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.univest.capp&#038;hl=en_IN\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest Android App<\/a> to track these under Rs 290 stocks live and get daily stock recommendations.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Growth_Snapshot_Latest_Full_Year_and_Latest_Quarter\"><\/span><strong>Growth Snapshot: Latest Full Year and Latest Quarter<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The table compares year-on-year growth in revenue and net profit for all five under Rs 290 stocks, using filed results.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;\" border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Company<\/th>\n<th>Full-Year Revenue Growth<\/th>\n<th>Full-Year Profit Growth<\/th>\n<th>Latest Quarter<\/th>\n<th>Quarter Revenue Growth<\/th>\n<th>Quarter Profit Growth<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Dharmaj Crop Guard<\/td>\n<td>20.3%<\/td>\n<td>56.9%<\/td>\n<td>Jun 2026<\/td>\n<td>4.2%<\/td>\n<td>16.9%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Juniper Hotels<\/td>\n<td>9.6%<\/td>\n<td>98.6%<\/td>\n<td>Jun 2026<\/td>\n<td>11.0%<\/td>\n<td>269.6%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Paradeep Phosphates<\/td>\n<td>28.4%<\/td>\n<td>50.5%<\/td>\n<td>Jun 2026<\/td>\n<td>35.4%<\/td>\n<td>23.9%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shipping Corporation of India<\/td>\n<td>7.4%<\/td>\n<td>60.4%<\/td>\n<td>Jun 2026<\/td>\n<td>33.8%<\/td>\n<td>74.9%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tata Steel<\/td>\n<td>6.1%<\/td>\n<td>243.0%<\/td>\n<td>Jun 2026<\/td>\n<td>14.1%<\/td>\n<td>18.8%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Factors_That_Move_Under_Rs_290_Stocks_to_Buy\"><\/span><strong>Factors That Move Under Rs 290 Stocks to Buy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Four factors tend to drive under Rs 290 stocks, and each one is worth checking before a purchase.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Earnings growth:<\/strong> Profit should be rising.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sector mix:<\/strong> Agro chemicals, hotels, fertilisers, shipping and steel differ.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dividends:<\/strong> Shipping Corporation of India yields about 3.0%.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Valuation:<\/strong> P\/E runs from about 7 to 26.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Risks_to_Keep_in_Mind_Before_Buying_Under_Rs_290_Stocks\"><\/span><strong>Risks to Keep in Mind Before Buying Under Rs 290 Stocks<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first risk is that a low share price says little about value, so earnings and valuation matter more. The second is that Juniper Hotels trades at a P\/E near 26 while Shipping Corporation of India trades near 7, Dharmaj Crop Guard is valued at under Rs 1,000 crore so trading can be thin, and Paradeep Phosphates carries the highest borrowings of the five. Check results every quarter.<\/p>\n<p>On the numbers, Juniper Hotels trades at the highest P\/E on this list at 26.34, so its earnings need to keep growing to support the price. Under Rs 290 stocks to buy can still fall when markets turn weak, and a staggered entry has historically suited investors better than a lump-sum purchase.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Choose_Under_Rs_290_Stocks_to_Buy\"><\/span><strong>How to Choose Under Rs 290 Stocks to Buy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Look at earnings:<\/strong> Price alone is not a signal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check P\/E:<\/strong> Shipping Corporation of India trades lowest.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Read ROE:<\/strong> Shipping Corporation of India leads.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Diversify:<\/strong> Spread across the five sectors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Invest_in_Under_Rs_290_Stocks\"><\/span><strong>How to Invest in Under Rs 290 Stocks<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Shortlist two or three companies from this list that match your risk appetite.<\/li>\n<li>Open the Univest Screener and compare P\/E, ROE and debt for each stock.<\/li>\n<li>Check the latest quarterly results and shareholding pattern on NSE or BSE.<\/li>\n<li>Decide an amount you can hold for three to five years and split it into two or three purchases.<\/li>\n<li>Review the holding after every quarterly result instead of reacting to daily price moves.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Shipping Corporation of India offers both the lowest P\/E on this list at 7.31 and the highest return on equity at 14.87%, and Tata Steel posted the fastest net profit growth in its latest full year at 243.0%.

Dharmaj Crop Guard trades at a P\/E of 14.06, Juniper Hotels trades at a P\/E of 26.34, Paradeep Phosphates trades at a P\/E of 13.38, Shipping Corporation of India trades at a P\/E of 7.31, Tata Steel trades at a P\/E of 18.79, against industry multiples ranging from 8.59 to 37.59.
