Kajaria Ceramics Announces ₹6 Dividend, September 21 Record Date
Kajaria Ceramics wants to give shareholders ₹6 for every share they own.
Since each share has a face value of ₹1, this is described as a 600% dividend.
Shareholders must be listed in the company’s records on September 21, 2026, to qualify.
The dividend still needs approval at the company’s annual meeting on September 15.
If approved, the money should be paid by October 14, 2026.
Kajaria’s shares fell by about 2% during the reported trading session.
The company also reported that its first-quarter profit increased significantly.
It plans to invest up to ₹12.15 crore in a solar and wind power arrangement for two Rajasthan plants.
The company had also announced a separate ₹296.7 crore share buyback earlier in 2026.
Kajaria Ceramics recommended a final FY26 dividend of ₹6 per equity share, equal to 600% of its Re 1 face value.
Shareholders listed in the company’s registers on September 21, 2026, will be eligible, subject to AGM approval.
The 40th AGM is scheduled for September 15, 2026, and dividend payment is due on or before October 14, 2026.
Kajaria shares were reported near ₹1,236.50–₹1,237.90 after falling about 2%, while six-month gains were reported at 33%.
Q1 FY27 net profit rose 55% to ₹169.46 crore, while the company approved up to ₹12.15 crore for renewable-power investments.
