Valuation
At the upper price band of ₹120, Excelsoft’s FY25 EPS of ₹3.47 implies a P/E ratio of ~34.6×. This valuation is in line with small and fast-growing vertical SaaS companies.
Positives include:
- Strong global presence in learning and assessment systems
- Established customer relationships across multiple geographies
- Scalable SaaS business model
Return ratios (ROE, ROA) remain areas to watch, given the large asset base. Improvement here could drive future re-rating.
