On August 5, 2025, Pidilite Industries Limited shares closed on a strong note, ending the session at ₹2,997.60 up ₹51.70 or 1.75% from its previous close of ₹2,951.80. The stock touched an intraday high of ₹3,027.50 and a low of ₹2,951.00, reflecting heightened investor interest ahead of its board meeting
In line with regulatory norms, the company has closed its trading window for insiders until August 8, 2025, ahead of any official announcements.
Let’s revisit Pidilite’s track record of rewarding shareholders to set the stage for what may come next.
The last time Pidilite issued bonus shares was in March 2010, when it announced a 1:1 bonus, effectively doubling the shareholding for existing investors at that time.
Pidilite has consistently rewarded shareholders through healthy final dividends. Below is a summary of its dividend payouts over the last two years:
Type | Amount (₹/share) | Ex-Date |
Final Dividend | 20.00 | 23 Jul 2025 |
Final Dividend | 16.00 | 24 Jul 2024 |
As the board meets on August 6, market participants are anticipating a possible announcement on both a special interim dividend and a new bonus issue.
If approved, the board is then expected to fix a record date, which determines shareholder eligibility for these corporate actions. To qualify, investors must hold Pidilite shares in their demat account on or before this record date.
