How to read this page

The ex-dividend date is the date from which a new buyer no longer gets the dividend. Interim dividends are declared during the year and final dividends after the year's accounts are approved; some companies also pay special dividends. Financial years run from April to March.

"As declared" is the amount per share at the time. "In today's shares" restates older payments for later bonuses and splits, so the years can be compared. Yield on a day is that payment divided by the closing price on the ex-date.

Limits to keep in mind

  • The history comes from NSE corporate actions, which start in 2005; the oldest records can be incomplete.
  • A dividend announced but not yet gone ex-date does not appear until its ex-date.
  • Yield changes every day with the price. The figures here use the price on the date stated.
  • Past dividends do not indicate future dividends.
