Jindal Stainless (JSL)share price fell to Rs 763.35 today, down 2.48% from the previous close. Market cap was Rs 60,883.39 crore.

Jindal Stainless Share Price fell to Rs 763.35 on 10 September 2026, down 2.48% or Rs 19.45 from the previous close of Rs 782.80. The company’s market capitalisation stood at Rs 60,883.39 crore. The Large Cap steel stock opened at Rs 785.80, touched a high of Rs 790.60 and slipped to an intraday low of Rs 762.50.

The supplied data confirms the price move, but it does not identify a company-specific catalyst for the decline. That means the stock is in focus mainly because of the size of the move, its large-cap status and how its valuation and profitability compare with the broader steel universe.

Key reported metrics provide additional context. Jindal Stainless has a P/E ratio of 19.87, P/B ratio of 3.16, ROE of 17.51%, ROCE of 19.19%, EPS of 39.41, book value of 248.05 and dividend yield of 0.51%. Technical reference points in the supplied data include a 50 DMA of 726.11, a 200 DMA of 742.64 and an RSI of 57.04.

Jindal Stainless Share Price Today reflects a clear intraday weakening pattern. The stock opened above the previous close, moved up to Rs 790.60, and then gave up those gains before nearing the day’s low by the time of this update. That sequence points to selling pressure after the opening phase rather than a flat session.

At Rs 763.35, the stock was below both the opening price of Rs 785.80 and the previous close of Rs 782.80. The intraday range of Rs 28.10 between the high and low is notable for a company of this size. Turnover of Rs 2.71 crore also indicates that the move was accompanied by active trading.

Even after the day’s fall, the stock remains above the 50 DMA of 726.11 and the 200 DMA of 742.64. RSI at 57.04 does not by itself explain the move, but it remains one more data point for traders evaluating momentum alongside the day’s price action.

Jindal Stainless (JSL) Fundamental Analysis

Metric Value
Market Capitalisation Rs 60,883.39 crore
P/E Ratio 19.87x
P/B Ratio 3.16x
ROE 17.51%
ROCE 19.19%
EPS Rs 39.41
Book Value Per Share Rs 248.05
Dividend Yield 0.51%

Jindal Stainless is a large listed company within steel, and the fundamental snapshot shows a mix of moderate valuation and solid return ratios. A P/E of 19.87 places it close to the industry median discussed below, while a P/B of 3.16 is richer than the sector median. That suggests the market is assigning a higher book-value multiple than many peers.

Profitability remains a key part of the picture. ROE stands at 17.51% and ROCE at 19.19%, both comfortably above the same-industry medians in the supplied benchmark set. EPS is Rs 39.41, book value per share is Rs 248.05 and dividend yield is 0.51%, which points to a modest historical cash payout relative to the prevailing stock price.

Because no trigger is specified in the data, the fundamental view matters more in interpreting the move. The numbers show a business with meaningful scale and relatively stronger profitability than much of its industry sample, even though the stock declined today.

In simple terms, the stock represents a much larger player than the typical company in this benchmark universe.

Peer Comparison

JSW Steel JSWSTEEL 3,18,031.29 12.93 3.07 28.54 20.67
Tata Steel TATASTEEL 2,29,820.42 21.33 2.29 11.44 12.7

APL Apollo Tubes APLAPOLLO 60,600.34 48.97 10.82 25.35 31.83

Against major listed peers, the company sits in a middle zone on valuation. Its P/E of 19.87 is higher than JSW Steel’s 12.93, slightly below Tata Steel’s 21.33 and above SAIL’s 18.01. Welspun Corp at 29.79 and APL Apollo Tubes at 48.97 trade at much richer earnings multiples.

On return ratios, the comparison is more balanced. JSW Steel reports ROE of 28.54% and ROCE of 20.67%, both ahead of Jindal Stainless at 17.51% and 19.19%. Tata Steel’s ROE of 11.44% and ROCE of 12.70% are lower, while SAIL’s 5.66% and 7.08% are materially lower. Welspun Corp and APL Apollo Tubes both show stronger profitability than Jindal Stainless on the supplied numbers.

Market-cap positioning is also useful. At Rs 60,883.39 crore, Jindal Stainless is far smaller than JSW Steel and Tata Steel, below SAIL and Welspun Corp, and very close to APL Apollo Tubes at Rs 60,600.34 crore. Overall, the peer set suggests a sizeable steel player with reasonable earnings valuation and stronger profitability than several, but not all, comparables.
