Suzlon is having a split decision on 06-Dec-2007. We should wait till split and should buy after the split? Since there would be more shares after the split and price will go down in short term due to increase in liquidity of share?
Divide the market capitalization by net profit figure and you will get the exact PE ratio.
Ranji is correct....the eps figure is pre-split.
Last four quarters profit = Rs 1059 crore.
Market capitalization = Rs 54700 crore.
PE ratio is more than 50.
Where can we get the latest data from? Is there any site that gives you the latest data? It seems MoneyControl are not maintaining their DataBase properly. This is bad as this might affect someone's investment decision.
If I want to do the calculations manually, what are the important things that I need to know before I move ahead with the calculations?

I don't know any 100% accurate source.
I usually use the company's official site for "number of shares outstanding" data.
Multiple that figure by share price to get Market Value.
Market value (market capitalization) figures of moneycontrol.com are usually correct.
use company's site for latest profit figures.
using eps can give incorrect results.
historical eps is never adjusted for stock splits, bonuses, equity dilution etc.
Which value to take as the no. of outstanding shares?

I went to the site of some companies to see the shareholding pattern. Could not quite figure out though, which figure to take. There are a number of values like pattern for promoters, public holding, custodians etc.
Should I take the public holding only or the total of all the holdings?
Hi, I believe tha calculations are a bit easier than we think aparently,
Let us assume,
Market Capitalization = MTC
Total no of Shares = TNS
Current Market Price = CMP
Earning Per Share ( Trailing Twelve Months ) = EPS
Net Profit = NTP
Price to Earnings Multiple = P/E
