Market Valuation of Nifty Firms in India: the Tobin's Q Approach
T.G Saji
Published : July 30, 2019
Abstract
This research, considering Tobin's Q as a proxy for market valuation, determines the factors relevant in firm valuation in
Indian equity markets. The study observes that Tobin’s Q is a sound measure for judging the firms' valuation in both
intrinsic and market terms. OLS based multiple regression models find the financial leverage and ROI as significant
determinants of market valuations in India. However, the degree of impact of these firms financials on Tobin's Q is time
varying and inconsistent.
