The company has fixed Friday, May 1, 2026, as the record date to determine eligible shareholders for the interim dividend. Investors whose names appear in the company’s register of members or in the records of depositories as of this date will be entitled to receive the dividend.
The ex-date for the dividend is April 30, 2026. This means that investors must purchase the shares before this date to be eligible for the payout. The dividend distribution is scheduled to begin on May 5, 2026.
Varun Beverages has maintained a consistent track record of dividend payments. In addition to the current interim dividend, the company declared a final dividend of ₹0.50 earlier in April 2026.
During 2025, the company also issued multiple dividends, including interim dividends in May and August, along with a final dividend in April. This steady payout pattern highlights the company’s strong financial position and shareholder-focused approach.
