JSW Energy Dividend: Last Day To Buy Shares To Qualify — Details Here
JSW Energy's board announced a final dividend of Rs 2 per share for financial year 2025.
Shares of JSW Energy Ltd. will be of interest on Thursday, 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.
JSW Energy's board announced a final dividend of Rs 2 per share for financial year 2025. The record date to determine the shareholders eligible for the dividend payout has been fixed as June 6. The total value of the dividend to be disbursed amounts to around Rs 349 crore.
The firm will pay the final dividend within 30 days after shareholder approval at the annual general meeting.
Given India's T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on the record date (June 6 in this case) will not be eligible for the dividend payment. Therefore, investors who own shares by June 5 will be the beneficiaries.
The company has been issuing a final dividend of Rs 2 since 2016.
JSW Energy reported a solid growth in its earnings in the fourth quarter of financial year 2025, helped by an increase in power generation and additional capacity from a new acquisition.
JSW Energy Q4 Performance
The consolidated net profit of the JSW Group company rose 16% to Rs 408 crore in the January–March quarter from Rs 351 crore in the year-ago period, according to an exchange filing on Thursday. That beat the projection of Rs 295 crore by analysts tracked by Bloomberg.
Operational profitability took a hit as finance costs during the quarter surged due to additional borrowings for ongoing capital expenditure and acquisitions.
JSW Energy's installed capacity surged 2.8 GW in the March quarter, driven by 478 MW of greenfield wind additions and 2,150 MW of thermal capacity addition. The increase coincides with the onset of the summer season in India when demand for power shoots up.
Net generation rose 24% to 7.9 billion units. Renewable energy generation during the quarter increased 32%, while net long-term PPA generation grew 28% year-on-year.
