Is There Now An Opportunity In OCL India Limited (NSE:OCL)?

OCL India Limited (NSE:OCL), a basic materials company based in India, received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the NSEI over the last few months, increasing to ₹1418.6 at one point, and dropping to the lows of ₹1097.55. This high level of volatility gives investors the opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at an artificially low price. A question to answer is whether OCL India’s current trading price of ₹1097.55 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at OCL India’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change. See our latest analysis for OCL India

Is OCL India still cheap?

Great news for investors – OCL India is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is ₹2536.05, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. What’s more interesting is that, OCL India’s share price is quite stable, which could mean two things: firstly, it may take the share price a while to move to its intrinsic value, and secondly, there may be less chances to buy low in the future once it reaches that value. This is because the stock is less volatile than the wider market given its low beta.

What kind of growth will OCL India generate?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. Although value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matter the most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. OCL India’s earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 98.04%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since OCL is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. With an optimistic outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
