How this calculator works
Dividend Yield
Dividend yield compares annual cash dividends with the share price. It excludes future dividend changes, capital gains, costs, and taxes.
Simple example
A Rs. 120 share paying Rs. 8 annually has a 6.67% dividend yield. For 5,000 shares, annual dividend income is Rs. 40,000.
