Why Is Hindustan Zinc Share Price Target Set at Rs 638 for 2027?

The base-case Hindustan Zinc stock target of Rs 638 applies a PE multiple of 13.17 to a forward EPS estimate of Rs 48.47. That EPS assumes 20.0% yearly growth, the pace from FY24 to FY26, and puts the target 18.0% above the current price. The bull case adds faster earnings growth and a higher multiple, while the downside risk level assumes flat earnings and a lower multiple.

Earnings Growth Behind the Hindustan Zinc Target Price: Five Years of Results

Hindustan Zinc grew revenue from Rs 30,656 crore in FY22 to Rs 41,934 crore in FY26, a compound annual growth rate of 8.1%. Net profit grew faster, from Rs 9,629 crore to Rs 13,832 crore (9.5% a year), which shows margin gains did part of the work and not just higher sales.

Financial Year	Revenue (Rs Cr)	Net Profit (Rs Cr)	EPS (Rs)	Dividend per Share (Rs)
FY22	30,656.00	9,629.00	22.79	18.00
FY23	35,477.00	10,511.00	24.88	75.50
FY24	30,006.00	7,759.00	18.36	13.00
FY25	35,066.00	10,353.00	24.50	29.00
FY26	41,934.00	13,832.00	32.74	10.00

FY26 revenue growth was 19.6%, faster than the four-year average of 8.1%, and net profit moved up 33.6%. EPS rose from Rs 18.36 in FY24 to Rs 32.74 in FY26. The FY27 outlook depends on whether that EPS estimate keeps compounding.

Margins and the Latest Quarter

Hindustan Zinc converted 33.0% of FY26 revenue into net profit, against 29.5% in FY25, within a five-year range of 25.9% to 33.0%. EBITDA margin was 55.3% in FY26 versus 52.2% in FY25.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Operating cash flow in FY26 was Rs 17,008 crore against capital expenditure of Rs 5,262 crore, leaving free cash flow of Rs 11,746 crore, or 5.2% of the current market capitalisation. In FY25 free cash flow was Rs 10,161 crore.

A PE of 13.17 equals an earnings yield of 7.6%, and the FY26 dividend of Rs 10.00 per share gives a yield of 1.88%.

A sustained move above Rs 568.51 would improve the short-term setup, while a close below Rs 453.50 would shift attention to the next support.

Bull Case and Downside Risk for Hindustan Zinc Stock Target in 2027

Bull Case Rs 765

The bull case Hindustan Zinc price target needs EPS growth of 25.0%, which lifts forward EPS to Rs 50.49, and a PE multiple that rises 15% to 15.15. That gives Rs 765, 41.5% above the current price and above the 52-week high of Rs 733.00, so the stock would have to set a fresh 52-week high.

Downside Risk Level Rs 426

The downside risk level is not a target. It assumes EPS stays flat at Rs 40.39 and the PE falls 20% to 10.54. That gives Rs 426, 21.2% below the current price and below the 52-week low of Rs 453.50.

Scenario	EPS Growth	PE Multiple	Price (Rs)	Change vs CMP
Bull Case	25.0%	15.15	Rs 765	+41.5%

Downside Risk	0.0%	10.54	Rs 426	-21.2%

Key Risks to the Hindustan Zinc Target Price for 2027

Growth Slowdown Risk for the Hindustan Zinc Price Target

Revenue in the June 2026 quarter was up 74.7% year on year, and FY26 revenue growth was 19.6%. If growth slows from here, the EPS estimate behind the Hindustan Zinc stock target will need revising.

Liquidity and Size Risk

Hindustan Zinc has a market capitalisation of Rs 2,24,787 crore. Institutional holding is 7.15%, and promoters hold 60.71%. A company of this size trades with deep liquidity, so entry and exit are rarely a problem, and the larger risk is paying too much for slow earnings growth.

Valuation and Margin Risk

Net margin was 33.0% in FY26, and a squeeze from higher costs or weaker pricing would hit earnings first. At a PE of 13.17 versus an industry PE of 12.69, a de-rating toward the downside-risk PE of 10.54 would cut the price even if earnings hold.

Market and Technical Risk

The stock trades 26.2% below its 52-week high, with an RSI of 23.4 and a MACD reading below its signal line. Broader market weakness can override company fundamentals in the short term.
