Price vs Dividends

How much of RVNL's return came from dividends

A share price tells you only half the story for a company that pays. Over the last 5 years Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd.'s quoted price moved +659.6%, but a holder who reinvested every dividend ended on +745.1% — which makes dividends 11% of everything the stock returned.

“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.

RVNL dividends — common questions

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

How much dividend does RVNL pay?
+

Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd. paid ₹2 per share in dividends over the last twelve months, a yield of 0.80% against the current share price. It has paid in 8 separate calendar years across the history we hold, totalling ₹12 per share.

What is the dividend yield of RVNL?
+

RVNL's trailing dividend yield is 0.80% — 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 RVNL paid dividends consistently?
+

Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd. has paid in 7 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.

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

Over the last 5 years RVNL's share price moved +659.6% while a holder reinvesting dividends earned +745.1% — so dividends account for about 11% of the total return. Almost every site quotes only the price change, which understates what a dividend payer actually returned.

When did RVNL last pay a dividend?
+

The most recent dividend on record went ex on 2026-08-18, at ₹1 per share. In 2026 it has paid 2 times, 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.
