CDSL Declares 125% Dividend of ₹12.50/Share for FY25 Amid 22% YoY Dip in Q4 Profit

Central Depository Services (India) Limited, commonly known as CDSL, made headlines on May 3, 2025, when it revealed a significant final dividend along with its results for the first quarter of the calendar year. This announcement, documented in an exchange filing, highlighted a final dividend of ₹12.50 per share, reflecting a face value of ₹10 per share.

Dividend Announcement Details

The company’s Board of Directors has put forward a proposal for a final dividend of ₹12.50 per equity share for the fiscal year 2024-25. This translates to an impressive 125% on the equity share’s face value, pending approval by shareholders at the upcoming 27th Annual General Meeting (AGM). However, CDSL has yet to declare a “Record Date” for this dividend disbursement.

In the latest market session, CDSL stocks experienced a slight rise, closing at ₹1,324.70, marking a 0.36% increase from the previous day’s closing of ₹1,320. Over the past five years, CDSL has delivered an astonishing 1,117% return to investors, while the past year has seen returns of 23.44%.
