Indraprastha Gas Ex-Date Today; Interim Dividend Record Date Set for February 19

Indraprastha Gas Limited (NSE: IGL) has announced an interim dividend for the financial year 2025–26. The company’s Board of Directors approved an interim dividend of 162.5%, translating to ₹3.25 per equity share with a face value of ₹2 each. 

Record Date and Eligibility

The record date to determine eligible shareholders for receiving the interim dividend has been fixed as February 19, 2026. Investors whose names appear in the company’s shareholder records on this date will qualify to receive the dividend payout. 

The stock will trade ex-dividend on February 18, 2026, meaning investors must purchase shares before this date to be eligible for the dividend benefit.

Example: Dividend Payout for 100 Shares

An investor holding 100 shares of Indraprastha Gas will receive the interim dividend based on the declared payout of ₹3.25 per share for FY 2025–26. This means the total dividend amount payable would be ₹325 before applicable taxes. 

The payout will be credited to shareholders whose names appear on company records as of the record date. Investors must ensure they purchased shares before the ex-date to qualify. This example helps investors clearly estimate potential income from their shareholding ahead of the dividend distribution.

Recent Corporate Actions

Apart from the interim dividend announcement, the company has undertaken several corporate actions over the past year. A final dividend of ₹1.50 per share was distributed in September 2025, while shareholders also benefited from a 1:1 bonus share issue in January 2025, effectively doubling the number of shares held by investors.
