Investors in Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) should keep a close eye on their portfolios today, as August 14, 2025, marks the record date for the company’s final dividend payout. As per the company’s corporate action notice, RIL has declared a final dividend of ₹5.50 per share for eligible shareholders.
Let’s break down what this means for investors and the potential earnings on 1,000 shares.
If you own 1,000 shares of Reliance Industries, here’s what your dividend income will look like:
To receive this ₹5.50 final dividend, you must be listed as a shareholder as of the record date August 14, 2025, in your demat account. Due to India’s T+1 settlement cycle, only those who purchased the shares on or before August 13, 2025, are eligible for the dividend.
In the T+1 system, ownership of shares is officially transferred on the next trading day. So if you bought Reliance Industries shares on August 14, your trade would settle on August 18 (next business day due to the weekend), and you would not qualify for this dividend payout.
The record date is the company-designated cut-off date used to determine which shareholders are entitled to receive a dividend. As long as you own shares by the record date, even if you sell them the next day, you are still eligible for the declared dividend.
