SJVNDividend History & Yield

SJVN Ltd. paid ₹2 per share in dividends over the last twelve months, a yield of 2.79% against the current share price. It has paid in 17 separate calendar years across the history we hold, totalling ₹26 per share.

SJVN's trailing dividend yield is 2.79% — 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.

SJVN Ltd. has paid in 16 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.

Today's dividend measured against SJVN's price ten years ago is a yield on cost of 6.5%, against 2.8% for someone buying now. ₹10 lakh invested a decade ago would therefore be paying about ₹64,500 a year at the current payout. That gap is what a growing dividend does over time, and it is invisible in the headline yield.

Over the last 15 years SJVN's share price moved +190.9% while a holder reinvesting dividends earned +525.0% — so dividends account for about 64% of the total return. Almost every site quotes only the price change, which understates what a dividend payer actually returned.

The most recent dividend on record went ex on 2026-08-24, at ₹0 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.
