This is India’s most expensive stock, with share price of Rs 1.5 Lakh, not Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance, Ratan Tata’s TCS or Adani, but it is.

MRF Share Price: Earlier this year, on March 4, MRF’s share had fallen close to Rs 1 lakh. After which, the stock has witnessed an upward rally in the past three months and delivered around 50% returns in that short span.

With a single share priced at over Rs 1.5 lakh, MRF is not a stock that fits into every investor’s portfolio. Today, MRF Limited became the most expensive stock in the country as its share price crossed Rs 1.5 lakh. Over the past three months alone, the stock has delivered strong returns.

The stock had dropped to around Rs 1 lakh on March 4 this year but again revived and gained nearly 50% in just three months. Over the last one year, MRF has delivered a return of around 14%, while its five-year returns are 132%.

MRF Share Price Performance

The Rs 1.5 lakh mark had been a psychological barrier for the stock and it has now breached it. The company manufactures tyres for passenger cars, two-wheelers, trucks, and even Indian Air Force’s Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter jets. It also produces toys under the “Funskool” brand and has a presence in the paints segment as well.

In FY 2025, the company reported revenue of Rs 28,153 crore and a net profit of Rs 1,869 crore shows its strong financial performance.

Looking at the company’s history, MRF’s share was priced at around Rs 1,100 in 1995. Over the past 30 years, it has delivered a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.5%. By 2005, the share price had risen to around Rs 3,500. During this period, the company expanded its production capacity and entered export markets, resulting in consistent revenue growth.

From 2005 to 2015, MRF capitalized on both domestic and global demand, expanding into truck, bus, and off-road tire segments. By 2015, the stock had crossed the Rs 40,000 level, representing a CAGR of 27.8%. During this time, the company also diversified into new areas like toys (Funskool) and paints, and developed specialized tyres for the Indian market.
