NSE’s own daily publication

Nifty 50 P/E ratio today

Price to earnings (P/E), price to book (P/B) and dividend yield — read against ten years of the index’s own history, because 19.8 means nothing until you know what 19.8 has meant before. Close of 11 Sept 2026.

Where the Nifty 50 dividend yield sits today

Valuation zones for the Nifty 50 dividend yield
ZoneDiv yield rangeWhat it has meant
Undervaluedbelow 1.16Historically cheap — the zone that has rewarded adding, not waiting.
Fairly valued1.16 – 1.29Nothing to act on. Keep SIPs running at their normal size.
Slightly expensiveyou are here1.29 – 1.45Above the ten-year middle. Stagger a lump sum rather than timing it.
Expensiveabove 1.45Historically dear — rebalancing to your target allocation is the honest response.

Bands are the mean ±1 standard deviation of 3,579 daily closes, with the median as the middle line, sorted so the four zones stay in order on a skewed series. They describe where this index has traded, not where it should — a market can stay expensive for years, and this is not a signal to act on. Dividend yield reads backwards: a high yield is the cheap end, and the zone is judged accordingly.

All three, since 2012

Each cell is the median of that month’s daily closes — one day’s print can be an earnings-revision artefact, and on a grid this size that day would colour the whole month. Hover a cell for the trading-day count behind it, or the line above it for any day’s close. All three are always shown; the buttons at the top only change which metric the valuation zones describe.

NSE publishes these once a day, after the close, on a consolidated trailing-twelve-month basis — so they move on the index and on quarterly earnings revisions, and never intraday. Indices with no meaningful earnings (India VIX, the dividend-point series) are left out. 142 indices.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Nifty 50 P/E ratio today?

The Nifty 50 closed at a price-to-earnings ratio of 19.78 on 11 September 2026. NSE publishes it once a day after the close, on a consolidated trailing-twelve-month basis, so it moves on the index and on quarterly earnings revisions — there is no intraday figure.

Is the Nifty 50 overvalued right now?

Against its own history it is fairly valued: a P/E of 19.78 is the 17th percentile of 3,579 daily closes, with a ten-year median of 22.39. That describes where this index has traded, not where it should — a market can stay expensive for years, and this is not a signal to act on.

What is a good P/E ratio for the Nifty 50?

There is no single good number, but there is a measured middle: 18.90 to 27.56 covers the mean ±1 standard deviation of 3,579 closes, and the median sits at 22.39. Below 18.90 has been historically cheap and above 27.56 historically dear. Compare it to the index's own past rather than to another market's — earnings mix and growth differ, so an Indian P/E and a US one are not the same quantity.

What is the Nifty 50 P/B ratio?

The Nifty 50 price-to-book ratio is 2.83 as of 11 September 2026, against a ten-year median of 3.49. P/B compares the index to the book value of its constituents' assets, which makes it the steadier of the two — book value does not swing on one quarter's earnings the way a P/E denominator can.

What is the Nifty 50 dividend yield?

The Nifty 50 dividend yield is 1.21% as of 11 September 2026, against a ten-year median of 1.29%. It reads backwards from the other two: a HIGH yield is the cheap end, because the same dividends are being bought for a lower price.

How often does this page update, and where do the numbers come from?

From NSE's own daily index file, which carries P/E, P/B and dividend yield for every index it prices — 142 of them have a meaningful P/E today. It is published once after each close and picked up by the hourly refresh, so the figures here are the last published close, never a live quote.
