Dividend-paying stock Supreme Industries has a strong history of returning cash to its shareholders. After the ex-date to finalise the list of eligible shareholders for the payment of the ₹25-per-share final dividend in June 2026, the company board today declared an interim dividend of ₹12 for eligible shareholders. The company declared this 600% dividend while announcing the Q2 results today. However, the ₹12 per share dividend failed to turn the tide, and the stock finished 4% lower on Monday at ₹3,250.
The company informed the Indian exchanges about the interim dividend, saying, “We wish to inform you that the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on Monday, the 26th October 2026, inter alia, transacted the following business: Approved payment of Interim Dividend @ 600% i.e. ₹12/- per Share on 127026870 Nos. of Equity Shares of ₹2/- each (FV).”
The company also declared the dividend record date, saying, "We wish to inform you that the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on Monday, the 26th October 2026, inter alia, transacted the following business: Company has fixed Friday, 30th October, 2026, as the "Record Date" for the purpose of ascertaining the eligibility of the Shareholders for payment of Interim Dividend."
According to information available on the official BSE website, Supreme Industries has a strong track record of paying dividends to its shareholders. This is the second dividend announced by the company in 2026. Earlier, the Supreme Industries board had declared a ₹25-per-share final dividend, and the stock traded ex-date on 25 June 2026 to finalise the list of eligible shareholders for the dividend payment. In one year's time, this would be the third dividend announced by the company. Supreme Industries had announced a ₹11-per-share dividend in the third quarter of the previous financial year, and the record date for the ₹11-per-share interim dividend was set for 3 November 2025.
This means that Supreme Industries has declared a ₹48-per-share dividend over one year ( ₹11 + ₹25 + ₹12), and one year ago, the Supreme Industries share price was around ₹4,000. This means Sujpreme Industries' annual dividend yield today is 1.20% [{( ₹11 + ₹25 + ₹12) / ₹4,000} x 100].
The BSE website also states that Supreme Industries has been paying dividends twice a year since 2018 — one final dividend after the end of the financial year and one interim dividend during the third quarter of the financial year, or ahead of the end of the year.
In 2017, Supreme Industries declared three dividends: a final dividend, a special dividend, and an interim dividend. The dividend stock has paid dividends to its shareholders without any interruption since 2007.
Supreme Industries once traded ex-date for a stock split as well. The company has undergone a 1:5 stock split, reducing the face value of its shares from ₹10 per share to ₹2 per share, with the record date for this split on 18 October 2010.
As mentioned above, Supreme Industries declared ₹12 share interim dividend while announcing its Q2 results today. In Q2FY27, Supreme Industries' total income grew from ₹2,409.41 crore to ₹3,369.96 crore, up 28.50% YoY. The company's total income grew from ₹2726.79 crore to ₹3369.96 crore QoQ, logging a sequential growth of 23.58%.
However, the company's net profit saw a dip on QoQ basis as the PAT slipped from ₹280.72 crore in the Q1FY27 to ₹262.44 crore in Q2FY27. However, net profit of the company grew YoY from ₹164.74 crore in Q2FY26 to ₹262.44 crore in Q2FY27, logging a YoY rise of more than 59%.
