What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (₹175.15). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (68/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis

DLF Limited (DLF) currently trades at ₹681.90, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ₹146.13, implying the stock looks roughly 366.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of ₹639.44 per share, and 0 of the 15 models we run sit above the ₹681.90 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at ₹95.55, and 15 of the 15 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.

Over the trailing twelve months, DLF Limited generated revenue of ₹81.9B at a net margin of 53.9%. Revenue declined 42.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of ₹74.4B. Fundamentals as of Sep 2, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ₹117.11 (bear case) to ₹175.15 (bull case); at ₹681.90, 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 23% below its 52-week high and 39% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at −9% fair-value upside, at −79%, DLF 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 ₹4.27 per share, which is 2.9 % 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

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.
