On Aug 22, 2025, Godfrey Phillips shares to trade ex-date, meaning that the shareholders registered in the company’s books will be eligible for the ₹60 final dividend.
Godfrey Phillips said in an exchange filing, “Recommended a final dividend of 3,000% i.e. Rs. 60/- per Equity Share of Rs. 2/- each for the financial year ended 31st March 2025, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the ensuing Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) of the Company.
The final dividend, as may be declared in the AGM, will be paid within 30 days from the date of the AGM, and the date of payment thereof shall be intimated in due course of time.”
Total Dividend=Number of Shares × Dividend per Share
Total Dividend=100×₹60=₹6,000
As per the calculations, you will receive a total dividend of ₹6,000 if you own 100 shares on the record date, i.e., Aug 22, 2025, subject to approval at the AGM.
To be eligible for Godfrey Phillips’s final dividend of ₹60 per share, you needed to be a registered shareholder as of the record date on Aug 22, 2025.
However, due to India’s T+1 (Trade plus One day) settlement system, only investors who bought the shares on or before June 30, 2025, will qualify. Under T+1 settlement, shares purchased on a given day are officially credited to your demat account on the next trading day.
