For instance, in 2025, the company announced an interim dividend of ₹110 per share in February, followed by a final dividend of ₹65 per share in August.

Special Dividends

Going above and beyond with a special dividend shows that the shareholders can expect both regular returns and occasional significant rewards, rather than relying solely on capital gains from stock price appreciation.

Trading Ex-Dividend

For example, Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd (PGHH) will trade ex-dividend on August 28, 2025. Any buyer on this day won’t get the dividend, but the seller will.
