The largest cash dividend of the year came from Bottlers Nepal (Terai) Limited at 60%. The largest bonus issue was NIC Asia Bank Ltd. at 29%. More books closed in Dec 2023 than in any other month, 46 of them. A high headline percentage is not the same as a high yield: these are percentages of the share’s paid-up value, so a company trading far above par returns less to a buyer at today’s price than the number suggests.

About 2079-80 dividends

How many companies declared a dividend for 2079-80?
123 of the companies Punji tracks declared 126 dividends for fiscal year 2079-80 (2022-2023). 76 included a cash component and 58 included bonus shares.
Which tracked company declared the highest dividend in 2079-80?
Among the companies Punji tracks, Bottlers Nepal (Terai) Limited (BNT) declared the largest total for 2079-80 at 60% of paid-up value, all of it cash.
What is the difference between cash dividend and bonus shares?
A cash dividend pays rupees into your bank account and is taxed at 5 percent for individuals. Bonus shares issue new shares instead, so your holding grows while the price adjusts down for the extra shares. Both are quoted as a percentage of the paid-up value of the share, not of its market price, which is why a 100 rupee paid-up share paying 10 percent pays 10 rupees rather than 10 percent of what you paid for it.
What is the book closure date?
The book closure date is the cut-off. You must hold the share, settled in your DEMAT, before books close to receive that declaration. Buying on or after the book close date means the previous holder receives it, not you.
