What is Dividend?

A dividend is a reward that is paid to the shareholders by a public listed company. Dividends can be in the form of cash, shares, cash equivalents, etc., and they are usually issued from the company’s net profit or reserved cash.

What is Dividend Yield?

Dividend Yield is the ratio between the annual dividend per share and the current share price of the stock, calculated in percentage. This will help you to understand how much a company pays out in dividends on a percentage basis.

Dividend Yield = Annual Dividend Per Share/Current Share Price x 100

Let’s understand it with an example, suppose Ramesh invests in a stock that is trading at Rs 200 per share, and the annual dividend paid is Rs 20 per share. Then the dividend yield for this particular stock will be 10% [Rs 20/Rs 200 X 100].

Selecting a high dividend paying stock and investing in it won’t make you eligible for dividend payouts. Yes, there’s a catch. You need to check specific dates before investing in these stocks:
