“Dividends added” is in percentage points of total return, with dividends treated as reinvested at the time they were paid — which is why it compounds and grows faster than the raw cash paid out. “From dividends” is shown only where the total return was positive; against a loss it would be a share of a negative number and would mean nothing.

Grouped by calendar year rather than financial year, because that is how the ex-dates arrive in the data. A year with an unusually large figure often contains a special dividend rather than a raised regular one.

Dividend Income

What AMBUJACEM would pay on your holding

Based on the last twelve months of declared dividends. A company can cut or raise its payout at any time, so this is a record of what it recently paid, not an income you can count on.

The right-hand column is the same dividend measured against what the shares cost a decade ago — a yield on cost of 0.7% against 0.5% today. It is what a long holder is actually earning, and it is the reason a low headline yield on a growing payer is not the whole story.

AMBUJACEM dividends — common questions

Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.

How much dividend does AMBUJACEM pay?
+

Ambuja Cements Ltd. paid ₹2 per share in dividends over the last twelve months, a yield of 0.49% against the current share price. It has paid in 21 separate calendar years across the history we hold, totalling ₹73 per share.

What is the dividend yield of AMBUJACEM?
+

AMBUJACEM's trailing dividend yield is 0.49% — the last twelve months of declared dividends divided by the current share price. Yield moves inversely with the price, so a falling share price raises the yield without the company paying a rupee more. That is why the payout record below matters more than the headline number.

Has AMBUJACEM paid dividends consistently?
+

Ambuja Cements Ltd. has paid in 20 consecutive years, counting back from the last complete calendar year. A streak is a better guide to a company's intent than a single year's yield, which can be inflated by a one-off special dividend. It is still a record of the past — a payout can be cut at any time, and several long-running Indian payers have done exactly that.

What would AMBUJACEM dividends pay on shares bought 10 years ago?
+

Today's dividend measured against AMBUJACEM's price ten years ago is a yield on cost of 0.7%, against 0.5% for someone buying now. ₹10 lakh invested a decade ago would therefore be paying about ₹7,200 a year at the current payout. That gap is what a growing dividend does over time, and it is invisible in the headline yield.

How much of AMBUJACEM's return came from dividends?
+

Over the last 20 years AMBUJACEM's share price moved +266.8% while a holder reinvesting dividends earned +426.7% — so dividends account for about 37% of the total return. Almost every site quotes only the price change, which understates what a dividend payer actually returned.

When did AMBUJACEM last pay a dividend?
+

The most recent dividend on record went ex on 2026-06-12, at ₹2 per share. In 2026 it has paid 1 time, totalling ₹2 per share. Dates are ex-dividend dates from our price data, not the credit date — the money reaches a shareholder some weeks later.
