The company's financial metrics reveal a PE ratio of 173.12 and an EV to EBITDA ratio of 483.46, indicating a significant premium compared to its peers. The price-to-book value stands at 3.49, while the return on capital employed (ROCE) and return on equity (ROE) are reported at 3.88% and 4.62%, respectively.
In comparison to its industry counterparts, Vashu Bhagnani's valuation appears notably elevated. For instance, Balaji Telefilms shows a PE ratio of 17.47, while GTPL Hathway maintains a PE of 28.86.
