Datawatch: Stocks trading at discount to book value

Datawatch: Stocks trading at discount to book value

As on September 14, 2009, the BSE Sensex was up 113% from its 52-week low. The index is now trading with a price-to-book value (P/BV) of 3.91 and price-earning (PE) of 21. In today's Datawatch, we look at stocks that are still trading at discount to book value in the market.

Data coverage

We have taken companies listed on the BSE whose price is above Rs 50 per share and the P/BV ratio is below 1.

Price-to-book ratio is used to compare a stock's market value to its book value. It is calculated by dividing the current closing price of the stock by the latest quarter's book value per share. A lower than 1 P/B ratio could mean that the stock is undervalued.

The analysis suggested that stocks that are trading below their P/BV ratio comprise largely of textile companies. Other major industries includes small and medium-sized finance, realty and paper industry companies. Notable companies trading at lowest P/BV include DS Kulkarni Developers, Nitco, Williamson Magor, Gitanjali Gems, Subex, Kolta Patil Developers, GSFC, Gujarat Alkali, etc.
