Hindustan Unilever Dividend: Last Day To Buy Shares To Qualify — Details Here
Shares of Hindustan Unilever Ltd. will be of interest on Friday, as the day marks the last session for investors to buy shares to qualify for receiving the dividend before the stock goes ex/record-date.
The record date determines the eligible shareholders who will receive the dividend payment. The ex-dividend date, which mostly coincides with the record date, marks when the share price adjusts to reflect the upcoming payout.
Hindustan Unilever's board announced a final dividend of Rs 24 per share for financial year 2025. The record date to determine the shareholders eligible for the dividend payout has been fixed as June 23.
The company had earlier paid an interim dividend of Rs 19 apiece on Nov. 6, along with a special dividend of Rs 10. Together, the total dividend for the financial year ended March 31, 2024, amounts to Rs 53 per share.
The total value of the dividend to be disbursed amounts to around Rs 5,639 crore.
Given India's T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on the record date (June 23 in this case) will not be eligible for the dividend payment. Therefore, investors who own shares by June 20 will be the beneficiaries.
In comparison the company had issued a final dividend of Rs 24 in financial year 2024 and an interim dividend of Rs 18.
