Analysis
Bharti Airtel Limited (BHARTIARTL) currently trades at ₹1,992, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹941.55, implying the stock looks roughly 52.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Bharti Airtel Limited generated revenue of ₹2.1T at a net margin of 12.7%. Revenue grew 15.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 19.4%. Net debt stands at ₹1.7T. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹706.16 (bear case) to ₹1,177 (bull case); at ₹1,992, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 8% below its 52-week high and 14% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at 30% fair-value upside, at -53%, BHARTIARTL screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 26 models by family
