The Nifty PE ratio represents the valuation metric for the Nifty 50 index, comprising 50 major companies publicly traded on India’s National Stock Exchange. For investors, PE ratio is an integral part of the analysis to understand the market value of a stock as compared to the company’s earnings. This ratio is determined by dividing the index’s price per share by its earnings per share.

A high PE ratio signifies that the stock is expensive, whereas a low PE ratio indicates that the stock is undervalued compared to earnings and might rise in price. A ratio between 20 and 25 is considered average, and anything below is considered a good PE ratio.

Here is a list of Nifty 50 stocks sorted according to their PE ratio.
