The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. traded at Rs 805.7, up 4.12% today, taking market capitalisation to Rs 50,924.56 crore and placing FACT among notable chemicals gainers.

The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price stood at Rs 805.7 on 21 August 2026 at 10:43:13 AM IST, up Rs 31.85 or 4.12% for the day, giving the company a market capitalisation of Rs 50,924.56 crore. That made FACT one of the stocks in news in the Indian stock market session, not because of a 52 week marker, but because the stock cleared the verified qualifying bar for its market-cap bucket.

Today’s move matters because FACT falls in the Large Cap category and the supplied data confirms it crossed the exact qualifying threshold of 4.00%. In other words, this was not just a routine uptick in share market today activity. It was a price rise large enough, within its own size class, to bring the counter into the top gainer conversation.

The supplied data confirms the price event, the strong intraday move and the turnover, but it does not establish a company-specific catalyst. That distinction matters for readers tracking The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Stock News, because verified price action, volume participation and relative market-cap positioning can be discussed factually even when a single headline trigger is not established in the data.

For investors following The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price Today, the key things to monitor next are whether the stock sustains trade near the day’s high of Rs 812, how turnover and traded volume evolve through the session, and how this Large Cap chemicals name compares with the broader sector benchmark and listed peers. Univest tracks those dimensions in a single framework so that price action can be read alongside size, sector positioning and stock analysis.

The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. (FACT) Fundamental Analysis

Metric	Value
Market Capitalisation	Rs 50,924.56 crore

The supplied fundamental context is most powerful on scale and market position. FACT’s Rs 50,924.56 crore market capitalisation places it far above the median and average size of the supplied chemicals benchmark universe, making today’s price rise notable in a large listed company, not a thinly capitalised counter.

In fundamental analysis, market capitalisation does not by itself indicate quality, profitability or valuation. It does, however, indicate company size and market relevance. On that measure, The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price deserves attention because the company’s market cap of Rs 50,924.56 crore stands well above the Rs 234.03 crore median and Rs 541.65 crore average market capitalisation of the 212-company chemicals benchmark supplied here. Even the benchmark’s maximum market cap is Rs 3,016.55 crore, which underscores how much larger FACT is than the listed sample used for sector comparison.

That size distinction changes how investors may read the move. A 4.12% gain in a company worth Rs 50,924.56 crore carries different informational weight from a similar percentage rise in a much smaller stock. It suggests that today’s move in FACT was meaningful within the context of the broader chemicals space tracked in this dataset.

The turnover of Rs 1.19 crore and total traded volume of 2,17,830 shares also provide part of the financial market context around the move. They show that the stock’s price rise occurred alongside visible market participation. For readers searching The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Fundamental Analysis or The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Stock Analysis, the immediate takeaway is not about assigning a rating but about placing the stock’s move inside a framework of market size, liquidity and relative sector standing.

That is why today’s FACT share price update remains relevant. The stock has moved sharply enough to qualify as an event, and it has done so in a company whose market capitalisation is many times larger than the benchmark median and average within the same sector dataset. From here, the most useful lens is ownership-free sector and peer comparison, because the supplied numbers say more about relative market positioning than about a single event trigger. Univest uses that relative approach to keep the analysis factual.

Track today's top gainers through the Univest top gainers screener. The peer table below provides the company-level comparison.

FACT sits within the Chemicals sector, where the supplied benchmark covers 212 companies. The benchmark data shows a wide spread in valuation and profitability, which matters because today’s move came in a company whose market capitalisation is dramatically larger than the sector sample’s median and average.

The sector snapshot identifies the company’s broader space as Chemicals, with a benchmark scope of the same sector and a total benchmark company count of 212. Within that universe, 174 companies have P/E data, with a median P/E of 18.25, an average of 36.32, a minimum of 0.51 and a maximum of 731.13. That spread suggests that the chemicals pack represented here includes both comparatively low-multiple names and highly valued outliers.

On price-to-book, the benchmark includes 211 companies, with a median P/B of 1.52 and an average of 1.7. The range runs from -57.56 to 36.36, again indicating a very broad dispersion across the sector. Profitability is similarly varied: the benchmark median ROE is 11.96% versus an average of 14.68%, while median ROCE is 14.67% against an average of 16.57%, both across 211 companies.

For market capitalisation, the benchmark median is Rs 234.03 crore, the average is Rs 541.65 crore, the minimum is Rs 5 crore and the maximum is Rs 3,016.55 crore. Against that backdrop, FACT’s market capitalisation of Rs 50,924.56 crore stands out sharply. That does not by itself imply that the stock is expensive or inexpensive, because the company-specific valuation multiples are not part of the supplied dataset, but it clearly establishes FACT as a far larger market participant than the typical company inside this sector sample.

For readers following The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price, this matters because a top gainer move in such a large company can influence how the stock is viewed within chemicals market news. Univest therefore treats today’s action not simply as a price rise, but as a notable move in a company whose scale is exceptional relative to the benchmark universe provided here.

The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. (FACT) has a market capitalisation of Rs 50,924.56 crore. Among the 5 peers shown, 0 have a larger market capitalisation.

The peer set shows FACT against a range of listed chemicals names whose market capitalisations cluster between roughly Rs 2,127 crore and Rs 3,017 crore. The most immediate contrast is size: FACT’s Rs 50,924.56 crore market capitalisation is far above every supplied peer.

The peer snapshot includes Grauer & Weil (India) Ltd., Bhansali Engineering Polymers Ltd., Chemplast Sanmar Ltd., Kiri Industries Ltd., GSP CROP SCIENCE LIMITED, Rossari Biotech Ltd., Nocil Ltd., JG Chemicals Ltd., SH Kelkar And Company Ltd. and Bharat Rasayan Ltd. Their market capitalisations range from Rs 2,127.33 crore for Bharat Rasayan to Rs 3,016.55 crore for Grauer & Weil. FACT, at Rs 50,924.56 crore, is therefore operating on a very different scale.

Among the peers with P/E data, Bhansali Engineering Polymers trades at 15.33, Bharat Rasayan at 15.09, Rossari Biotech at 18.71, Grauer & Weil at 18.81, SH Kelkar at 24.67, GSP Crop Science at 28.05, JG Chemicals at 32.44, Nocil at 40.82 and Kiri Industries at 0.51. On P/B, the peer list spans from -10.05 for Chemplast Sanmar to 4.4 for JG Chemicals, with Nocil at 1.51 and Grauer & Weil at 2.69.

Profitability also varies widely. ROE runs from 0% for Chemplast Sanmar to 42.11% for Bhansali Engineering Polymers, while ROCE ranges from 9.48% for SH Kelkar to 183.45% for Chemplast Sanmar. Grauer & Weil reports ROE of 14.35% and ROCE of 19.47%; Rossari Biotech shows 16.17% and 24.37%; Bharat Rasayan shows 25.38% and 30.45%.

Because the company-specific P/E, P/B, ROE and ROCE for FACT are not part of the supplied data, the cleanest factual conclusion is comparative scale. The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price is being watched today in a company that is much larger than the provided peers, which gives its price action a different market significance from smaller chemicals counters discussed in NSE news and BSE news.

The supplied dataset places The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. within the Chemicals sector, which is the core industry context available for this article. In market coverage, that means FACT is being evaluated alongside listed chemicals companies whose valuations, profitability metrics and market capitalisations can vary substantially, as shown by the benchmark spread in the sector snapshot.

That industry backdrop is important for understanding why The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Ltd. Share Price attracts attention when it posts a notable single-day rise.

Peer examples in this benchmark include Grauer & Weil, Rossari Biotech, Nocil, JG Chemicals, Bharat Rasayan and Bhansali Engineering Polymers.

Within that listed context, FACT stands out chiefly on size. Its market capitalisation of Rs 50,924.56 crore is materially above both the sector median and average and also above the largest market cap in the supplied benchmark company list.
