KARURVYSYA has delivered PAT growth of 50% and revenue growth of 20% in 9M-24 at a PE of 9.5 which makes the valuations quite reasonable.
At a Q3-24 end net-worth of Rs 9,542.60 cr and a market cap of Rs 14,059 cr implies that KARURVYSYA is trading a price to book of 1.47 which makes the valuations quite attractive.
