Price vs Dividends
How much of SCI's return came from dividends
A share price tells you only half the story for a company that pays. Over the last 20 years Shipping Corporation of India Ltd.'s quoted price moved +207.0%, but a holder who reinvested every dividend ended on +316.5% — which makes dividends 35% of everything the stock returned.
| Period | Price return | Dividends added | Total return | From dividends |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | +41.4% | +8.0 pts | +49.4% | 16% |
| 3 years | +129.5% | +14.3 pts | +143.8% | 10% |
| 5 years | +182.7% | +18.4 pts | +201.1% | 9% |
| 10 years | +351.1% | +37.0 pts | +388.0% | 10% |
| 15 years | +248.3% | +39.7 pts | +288.0% | 14% |
| 20 years | +207.0% | +109.4 pts | +316.5% | 35% |
“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.
Payout Record
SCI dividend history, year by year
Per share, by the calendar year the dividend went ex — 12 years on record.

| 2025 | ₹10 | 2 | |
| 2024 | ₹1 | 1 | |
| 2023 | ₹0 | 1 | |
| 2022 | ₹0 | 1 | |

| 2020 | ₹1 | 1 | |

| 2010 | ₹5 | 1 | |
| 2009 | ₹7 | 1 | |
| 2008 | ₹6 | 2 | |
| 2007 | ₹6 | 1 |
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 SCI 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 | ₹4,380 | ₹19,740 |
| ₹5.00L | ₹21,900 | ₹98,700 |
| ₹10.00L | ₹43,800 | ₹1,97,400 |
| ₹25.00L | ₹1,09,500 | ₹4,93,500 |
| ₹50.00L | ₹2,19,000 | ₹9,87,000 |
The right-hand column is the same dividend measured against what the shares cost a decade ago — a yield on cost of 19.7% against 4.4% 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.

SCI dividends — common questions
Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.
How much dividend does SCI pay?+
Shipping Corporation of India Ltd. paid ₹13 per share in dividends over the last twelve months, a yield of 4.38% against the current share price. It has paid in 12 separate calendar years across the history we hold, totalling ₹44 per share.
What is the dividend yield of SCI?+
SCI's trailing dividend yield is 4.38% — 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 SCI paid dividends consistently?+
Shipping Corporation of India Ltd. has paid in 6 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 SCI dividends pay on shares bought 10 years ago?+
Today's dividend measured against SCI's price ten years ago is a yield on cost of 19.7%, against 4.4% for someone buying now. ₹10 lakh invested a decade ago would therefore be paying about ₹1,97,400 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 SCI's return came from dividends?+
Over the last 20 years SCI's share price moved +207.0% while a holder reinvesting dividends earned +316.5% — so dividends account for about 35% of the total return. Almost every site quotes only the price change, which understates what a dividend payer actually returned.
When did SCI last pay a dividend?+
The most recent dividend on record went ex on 2026-02-17, at ₹4 per share. In 2026 it has paid 1 time, totalling ₹4 per share. Dates are ex-dividend dates from our price data, not the credit date — the money reaches a shareholder some weeks later.
