Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range ₹499.35 – ₹2,165 · fair‑value band ₹706.16 – ₹1,177 · the ₹1,840 price screens above the ₹941.55 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
Analysis
Bharti Airtel Limited (BHARTIARTL) currently trades at ₹1,840, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹941.55, implying the stock looks roughly 95.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of ₹1,495 per share, and 5 of the 26 models we run sit above the ₹1,840 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at ₹160.11, and 21 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
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 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ₹706.16 (bear case) to ₹1,177 (bull case); at ₹1,840, 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 15% below its 52-week high and 6% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at 30% fair-value upside, at −49%, BHARTIARTL screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2026 figures, and about 5 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly ₹8.74 per share, which is 0.9 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (₹1,495) versus Asset-Based (₹160.11). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (76).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 56 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 53
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
