Quick Answer
The NMDC share price target for 2027 is Rs 81.8, about 13.9% above the current price of Rs 71.80. The bull case is Rs 99.0, and the downside risk level, which is not a target, is Rs 56.6. The base case assumes earnings per share grow 15.6% a year, the pace seen from FY24 to FY26, with the stock holding its PE of 8.35. These are model-based estimates built from reported financials, not guaranteed outcomes.
Investors weighing an NMDC target price for 2027 should start with where the stock sits today. At Rs 71.80 on 9 October 2026, it is 26.4% below its 52-week high of Rs 97.49 and 2.4% above its 52-week low of Rs 70.10. That range spans 39% from low to high, so the entry point matters as much as the NMDC price forecast itself.
This article builds the NMDC share price target from reported numbers only: five years of annual results, the last five quarters, the latest shareholding pattern and current valuation ratios from company filings and exchange data. Each scenario shows its assumptions, so you can see exactly how the Rs 81.8 base case and the Rs 99.0 bull case were reached, along with a downside risk level of Rs 56.6.

Why Is NMDC Share Price Target Set at Rs 81.8 for 2027?
The base-case NMDC stock target of Rs 81.8 applies a PE multiple of 8.35 to a forward EPS estimate of Rs 9.80. That EPS assumes 15.6% yearly growth, the pace from FY24 to FY26, and puts the target 13.9% 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 NMDC Target Price: Five Years of Results
NMDC grew revenue from Rs 26,683 crore in FY22 to Rs 33,559 crore in FY26, a compound annual growth rate of 5.9%. Net profit grew more slowly, from Rs 9,441 crore to Rs 7,415 crore (-5.9% a year), which points to margin pressure alongside the sales growth.
| Financial Year | Revenue (Rs Cr) | Net Profit (Rs Cr) | EPS (Rs) | Dividend per Share (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY22 | 26,683.31 | 9,441.10 | 32.17 | 14.74 |
| FY23 | 18,435.10 | 5,538.40 | 19.11 | 6.60 |
| FY24 | 22,678.53 | 5,572.24 | 6.34 | 7.25 |
| FY25 | 25,498.84 | 6,539.75 | 7.44 | 3.30 |
| FY26 | 33,559.27 | 7,415.37 | 8.47 | 3.50 |
FY26 revenue growth was 31.6%, faster than the four-year average of 5.9%, and net profit moved up 13.4%. EPS rose from Rs 6.34 in FY24 to Rs 8.47 in FY26. The FY27 outlook depends on whether that EPS estimate keeps compounding.
Margins and the Latest Quarter
NMDC converted 22.1% of FY26 revenue into net profit, against 25.6% in FY25, within a five-year range of 22.1% to 35.4%. EBITDA margin was 32.0% in FY26 versus 38.2% in FY25.
In the June 2026 quarter, revenue was Rs 7,143 crore, up 1.5% from the same quarter a year earlier, while net profit of Rs 2,006 crore was up 1.9%. EBITDA came in at Rs 2,816 crore, up 1.3% year on year. The next quarterly result is the first test of whether the earnings assumption holds.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Debt to equity stands at 0.19, and shareholders' equity grew from Rs 18,032 crore in FY22 to Rs 34,076 crore in FY26. Operating cash flow in FY26 was Rs 4,996 crore against capital expenditure of Rs 3,171 crore, leaving free cash flow of Rs 1,826 crore, or 2.9% of the current market capitalisation. In FY25 free cash flow was negative at Rs 1,336 crore, so cash generation has not been steady year to year.
Valuation Check for the NMDC Stock Target: PE, Price to Book and ROE
At a PE of 8.35 against an industry PE of 10.06, NMDC trades at a discount to its industry. Price to book is 1.83 on a book value of Rs 38.74 per share, and return on equity is 21.87%. A PE of 8.35 equals an earnings yield of 12.0%, and the FY26 dividend of Rs 3.50 per share gives a yield of 4.94%.
Shareholding Pattern and Institutional Holding
Promoters held 60.79% of NMDC in June 2026, and promoter holding has stayed near 60.79% since June 2025. Foreign institutional investors (FII) held 13.59% and domestic institutions (DII) held 13.81%, which puts total institutional holding at 27.40%. FII holding rose from 12.21% in June 2025 to 13.59% in June 2026. Public shareholders own the remaining 11.80%. A meaningful institutional holding adds a layer of research coverage and trading depth.
NMDC Share Price Targets for the Short Term and 12 Months
Short Term NMDC Stock Target Levels: Technical Setup
At Rs 71.80 on 9 October 2026, NMDC trades below its 50-day simple moving average of Rs 82.35 and below its 200-day exponential moving average of Rs 82.22. The 14-day RSI reads 27.8, which is oversold territory, and the MACD line sits below its signal line. The nearest resistance level is Rs 82.22 (200-day exponential moving average) and the nearest support is Rs 70.10 (52-week low). A sustained move above Rs 82.22 would improve the short-term setup, while a close below Rs 70.10 would shift attention to the next support.
12 Month NMDC Target Price for 2027
The 12-month target for NMDC is Rs 81.8: forward EPS of Rs 9.80 at a PE of 8.35. That is 13.9% above Rs 71.80. It would still leave the stock 16.1% below its 52-week high of Rs 97.49.
How EPS Growth and PE Multiple Change the NMDC Target Price
| EPS Growth | PE 6.68 | PE 8.35 | PE 9.60 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.0% (EPS Rs 8.48) | Rs 56.6 | Rs 70.8 | Rs 81.4 |
| 15.6% (EPS Rs 9.80) | Rs 65.5 | Rs 81.8 | Rs 94.1 |
| 21.6% (EPS Rs 10.31) | Rs 68.9 | Rs 86.1 | Rs 99.0 |
Each cell multiplies the forward EPS estimate by the PE shown. Reading across a row shows what a de-rating or re-rating does to the NMDC price forecast, and reading down a column shows what earnings growth is worth at a fixed multiple.
Bull Case and Downside Risk for NMDC Stock Target in 2027
Bull Case Rs 99.0
The bull case NMDC price target needs EPS growth of 21.6%, which lifts forward EPS to Rs 10.31, and a PE multiple that rises 15% to 9.60. That gives Rs 99.0, 37.9% above the current price and above the 52-week high of Rs 97.49, so the stock would have to set a fresh 52-week high.
Downside Risk Level Rs 56.6
The downside risk level is not a target. It assumes EPS stays flat at Rs 8.48 and the PE falls 20% to 6.68. That gives Rs 56.6, 21.2% below the current price and below the 52-week low of Rs 70.10.
| Scenario | EPS Growth | PE Multiple | Price (Rs) | Change vs CMP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bull Case | 21.6% | 9.60 | Rs 99.0 | +37.9% |
| Base Case | 15.6% | 8.35 | Rs 81.8 | +13.9% |
| Downside Risk | 0.0% | 6.68 | Rs 56.6 | -21.2% |
Key Risks to the NMDC Target Price for 2027
Growth Slowdown Risk for the NMDC Price Target
Revenue in the June 2026 quarter was up 1.5% year on year, and FY26 revenue growth was 31.6%. If growth slows from here, the EPS estimate behind the NMDC stock target will need revising.
Liquidity and Size Risk
NMDC has a market capitalisation of Rs 62,246 crore. Institutional holding is 27.40%, and promoters hold 60.79%. 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 22.1% in FY26, and a squeeze from higher costs or weaker pricing would hit earnings first. At a PE of 8.35 versus an industry PE of 10.06, a de-rating toward the downside-risk PE of 6.68 would cut the price even if earnings hold.
Market and Technical Risk
The stock trades 26.4% below its 52-week high, with an RSI of 27.8 and a MACD reading below its signal line. Broader market weakness can override company fundamentals in the short term.
How to Invest in NMDC
Start with the live price and volume. Any NMDC share price target is only as current as the data behind it, and the data here is as of 9 October 2026, so refresh the Rs 71.80 price before acting on any level.
Next, review the fundamentals yourself. The Univest Screener lets you check NMDC's PE, ROE, debt and shareholding in one place.

Then compare the three NMDC target price scenarios with your own view. If you expect EPS growth below 15.6%, the base case is too optimistic for you; if you expect more, the bull case deserves weight.
Decide your position size and exit levels before you buy. The support and resistance levels above can serve as reference points, but they are not recommendations.
Finally, place the order through a SEBI-registered broker or the Univest app, and review the position after each quarterly result. Consult a SEBI-registered advisor if you are unsure.

Conclusion
The NMDC share price target for 2027 is Rs 81.8 in the base case, with Rs 99.0 as the bull case. The support for that view is arithmetic you can check: EPS grew 15.6% a year over FY24 to FY26, and the stock trades at a PE of 8.35. The risks are equally concrete, including a stock that sits 26.4% below its 52-week high and a downside scenario that cuts the price 21% if earnings stall. Use these numbers as a framework, check them against the latest filings, and size any position to your own risk appetite.
