To understand this further, we look at the stock’s price-to-earnings (PE) ratio. Currently, SBI’s PE ratio is 12.93, based on its earnings figures for the most recent period (ending September 25th). This suggests investors are willing to pay a certain amount for each rupee of the company’s earnings.
