Price vs Dividends
How much of HDFCBANK's return came from dividends

“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 HDFCBANK 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.
| Invested | A year at today's price | If you had bought 10 years ago |
|---|---|---|
| ₹1.00L | ₹1,800 | ₹4,030 |
| ₹5.00L | ₹9,000 | ₹20,150 |
| ₹10.00L | ₹18,000 | ₹40,300 |
| ₹25.00L | ₹45,000 | ₹1,00,750 |
| ₹50.00L | ₹90,000 | ₹2,01,500 |
The right-hand column is the same dividend measured against what the shares cost a decade ago — a yield on cost of 4.0% against 1.8% 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.

HDFCBANK dividends — common questions
Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.
How much dividend does HDFCBANK pay?+
HDFC Bank Ltd. paid ₹13 per share in dividends over the last twelve months, a yield of 1.80% against the current share price. It has paid in 19 separate calendar years across the history we hold, totalling ₹79 per share.
What is the dividend yield of HDFCBANK?+
HDFCBANK's trailing dividend yield is 1.80% — 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 HDFCBANK paid dividends consistently?+
HDFC Bank Ltd. has paid in 5 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 HDFCBANK dividends pay on shares bought 10 years ago?+
Today's dividend measured against HDFCBANK's price ten years ago is a yield on cost of 4.0%, against 1.8% for someone buying now. ₹10 lakh invested a decade ago would therefore be paying about ₹40,300 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 HDFCBANK's return came from dividends?+
Over the last 20 years HDFCBANK's share price moved +1590.8% while a holder reinvesting dividends earned +1893.0% — so dividends account for about 16% of the total return. Almost every site quotes only the price change, which understates what a dividend payer actually returned.
When did HDFCBANK last pay a dividend?+
The most recent dividend on record went ex on 2026-06-19, at ₹13 per share. In 2026 it has paid 1 time, totalling ₹13 per share. Dates are ex-dividend dates from our price data, not the credit date — the money reaches a shareholder some weeks later.
