The move makes FACT Stock News relevant for investors tracking same-day price action, current valuation and sector positioning.

The latest FACT Share Price Today update therefore needs to be read through the day’s trade range, the company’s valuation metrics and its comparison with fertilizer peers on Univest.

The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore (FACT) Share Price Today: Price Action Analysis

Metric	Value
Current Price	Rs 761.95
Previous Close	Rs 778.1
Today's Move	-Rs 16.15 (-2.08%)

Market Cap Category	Large Cap

FACT Share Price Today opened at Rs 775.6, moved between an intraday high of Rs 776.6 and a low of Rs 761.15, and ended at Rs 761.95. That leaves the stock Rs 16.15 below the previous close of Rs 778.1, matching a day change of -2.08%. The day’s range was relatively narrow, with the close near the lower end of the session band. Turnover stood at Rs 0.25 Cr, which is a factual traded-value figure only and should be read as part of the day’s market record, not as an explanation for the move. For readers following FACT Share Price Live or FACT Share Price Update searches, the relevant point is straightforward: the stock declined in a single session after opening below the prior close and spending the day inside a tight intraday band. This same-day price fall keeps FACT Share Price in focus for stock news readers looking at today’s decline, not a broader trend call.

The move also matters because the company is a Large Cap, so a one-day decline is being observed in the context of a sizeable listed business rather than a smaller counter. For Univest readers scanning FACT Stock Falling Today, the essential takeaway is the verified trade data itself: current price, previous close, intraday levels and turnover. The next useful lens is the company’s valuation and operating context, which helps separate a daily market move from the longer-term financial picture. That leads naturally to FACT Fundamental Analysis and the sector backdrop.

The Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore (FACT) Fundamental Analysis

Metric	Value
Market Capitalisation	Rs 50,348.67 crore
P/B Ratio	39.08x
ROE	-2.91%
ROCE	7.89%
EPS	Rs -1.64
Book Value Per Share	Rs 19.91
Dividend Yield	0%

FACT Fundamental Analysis places today’s price at a very different angle from its accounting base. The market capitalisation of Rs 50,348.67 Cr is far above the book value of Rs 19.91 per share, while the P/B ratio is 39.08. The EPS is Rs -1.64, which means the latest per-share earnings figure is negative, and ROE is -2.91%, showing a negative return on shareholder equity. ROCE is 7.89%, which gives a separate view of return on capital employed. Dividend yield is 0, so there is no dividend income signal in the supplied data.

These numbers matter for FACT Share Price because they show that the stock is not trading on simple low-multiple valuation optics. A negative EPS alongside a high P/B ratio makes the equity story more dependent on how the market weighs balance-sheet value, return measures and sector context. On Univest, this is why FACT Stock Analysis should be read as a mix of price action and financial quality rather than a pure momentum story. The day’s decline does not change the reported metrics, but it does keep the share price under scrutiny relative to a large market capitalisation and modest profitability indicators. From a fundamental angle, today’s FACT Share Price move is best understood as a fresh market update against an already stretched valuation profile.

FACT operates in the Chemicals sector and the Fertilizers industry. The supplied sector benchmark covers the same industry with 28 companies, which makes the comparison broad enough to place FACT Share Price in a defined peer set.89, average 19.32, minimum 0.99 and maximum 94.24 across 23 companies with P/E data. FACT’s P/B ratio of 39.08 can be compared directly with the benchmark median of 1.17 and average of 2.98 across 28 companies, while the benchmark range runs from -17.01 to 39.08. On that measure, FACT sits at the top end of the supplied range. The sector snapshot also shows company ROE of -2.91% versus the benchmark median of 7.61% and average of 11.2%, and ROCE of 7.89% versus the benchmark median of 10.81% and average of 11.85%.

The market-cap benchmark within the same industry shows a median of Rs 457.98 Cr and an average of Rs 6,292.11 Cr, with a minimum of Rs 5.94 Cr and a maximum of Rs 57,995.7 Cr. FACT’s Rs 50,348.67 Cr market capitalisation sits near the upper end of that spectrum. For FACT News Today, this combination matters because the company is large, but its supplied return ratios are not aligned with the industry medians. That does not explain the day’s decline, but it does explain why the stock attracts attention in stock analysis and fundamental analysis discussions on Univest.

FACT’s peer set in the same industry gives useful context for today’s FACT Share Price move. Coromandel International shows a market cap of Rs 57,995.7 Cr, P/E of 31.66, P/B of 4.49, ROE of 16.08% and ROCE of 23.92%.

Paradeep Phosphates stands at Rs 16,143.8 Cr market cap, P/E 15.06, P/B 2.25, ROE 18.21% and ROCE 15.09%.

Against those names, FACT’s market capitalisation is larger, but its P/B of 39.08 is far above the listed peers, and its ROE of -2.91% is below each of the peers named above. ROCE at 7.89% is also lower than Chambal, Coromandel and Paradeep in the supplied set. In a peer comparison, that does not define the day’s move, but it does help readers interpret FACT Stock News with a clear comparison frame. For Univest readers looking at FACT Share Price today, the peer data suggests that valuation and return metrics are the main comparison points, rather than a simple size story.
