historical_valuation
Compare a stock's current P/E against its own historical annual P/E to see if valuation is high or low relative to past. Uses Yahoo Finance data for Indian equities.
Instructions
Compare an NSE/BSE-listed Indian equity's current P/E to its own historical annual P/E (fiscal-year-end price / that year's diluted EPS) over its available history (Yahoo gives ~5 years -- years_used reports the real span, never implies a longer history). Years with negative/missing EPS are excluded. Relative to the company's OWN past only -- not an absolute cheap/expensive judgment or a peer comparison.
:param symbol: ticker symbol, e.g. "RELIANCE", "TCS.NS", or "TCS.BO"
