ROE	9.66%
ROCE	8.5%
EPS	Rs 10.73
Book Value Per Share	Rs 188.05
Dividend Yield	0.37%

JSW Energy’s market capitalisation of Rs 98,091.33 crore and enterprise-level valuation context can be read alongside its P/E ratio of 49.86 and P/B ratio of 2.84. The stock’s EPS is Rs 10.73, book value per share is Rs 188.05 and dividend yield is 0.37%. Those three numbers add important texture to JSW Energy Fundamental Analysis because they show earnings per share, accounting net worth per share and historical payout relative to the current price.

Profitability ratios also matter here. ROE stands at 9.66% and ROCE at 8.5%, which give a factual view of returns on shareholder equity and capital employed. In isolation, these figures do not justify a directional view, but they do frame the stock’s valuation. A P/E of 49.86 is above the industry median of 23.89 and also above the industry average of 47.52. The P/B ratio of 2.84 is above the industry median of 2.24 but below the industry average of 2.96. For readers searching JSW Energy Share Price and JSW Energy Stock Analysis, the important point is that the decline today came in a stock that still trades on valuation metrics that sit differently from sector medians and averages.

From an earnings perspective, EPS of Rs 10.73 anchors the current valuation math, while the dividend yield of 0.37% reflects a modest payout metric on the supplied data. Univest reads these figures as a factual snapshot rather than a forecast. The next layer is how these numbers compare with the power sector and listed peers.
