ADF Foods Limited Final Dividend Set at ₹0.60 Per Share

ADF Foods Limited declared a final dividend of ₹0.60 per equity share for FY2026, with the ex-date and record date both falling on 5 August 2026. The payment represented a 30% dividend on the ₹2 face-value share and followed seven consecutive financial years of dividend payments through FY2026.

What dividend did ADF Foods Limited declare for FY2026?

ADF Foods Limited declared a final dividend of ₹0.60 per equity share on 13 May 2026. The dividend was subsequently adopted by shareholders at the company’s 36th Annual General Meeting held on 12 August 2026, according to the information provided.

The dividend equals 30% of the ₹2 face value of each equity share. At the ex-date, the indicated dividend yield was 0.22%. The company’s dividend information also shows that ADF Foods paid regular dividends of ₹1.20 per share across two payments in the 12 months to 3 November 2026.

For investors, the final dividend was a cash distribution linked to FY2026 rather than a new announcement for the current financial year. The relevant corporate-action dates were already completed in August 2026. Shareholders needed to meet the eligibility conditions by the record date to receive this final dividend.

When were the ADF Foods dividend ex-date and record date?

ADF Foods set both 5 August 2026 as the ex-date and the record date for the ₹0.60 final dividend. The matching dates meant that eligibility was determined based on the company’s shareholder records on that date, subject to the applicable settlement process.

The company communicated the record date for the final dividend through a corporate announcement. It also issued shareholder communication on tax deducted at source related to the final dividend for the year ended 31 March 2026. These disclosures are relevant because tax treatment and shareholder registration affect the net amount received by eligible investors.

The following table summarises the disclosed details of the FY2026 final dividend.

How has ADF Foods maintained its dividend record?

ADF Foods has paid a dividend in each of the last seven financial years up to FY2026. This record provides context for the FY2026 final dividend, although past payments do not establish the amount or timing of future dividends.

The available data indicates that the company paid ₹1.20 per share in regular dividends over the 12 months to 3 November 2026, across two payments. At the closing share price of ₹249.66 on 2 November 2026, that amount represented a trailing yield of 0.48%.

The reported FY2026 dividend yield was 0.47%, while the company was also described as maintaining a dividend payout of 37.2%. Dividend yield changes with both the payout per share and the market price of the stock. Therefore, a yield figure should be read alongside the relevant share-price date rather than as a fixed return.

What was ADF Foods’ financial position before the interim dividend proposal?

ADF Foods reported net sales of ₹167 crore and net profit of ₹17 crore for the quarter ended 30 June 2026. Revenue increased 25.6% from ₹133 crore in the corresponding quarter a year earlier, while profit rose 13.3% from ₹15 crore.

The company was described as a small-cap FMCG food-products business, with a reported market capitalisation of ₹2,977 crore in one data point. Other supplied market data showed a market capitalisation of ₹2,817.45 crore, a price-to-earnings ratio of 30.6, return on equity of 16.1%, and return on capital employed of 21.6%. These market-based measures can vary with the date and price used by the data provider.

The June-quarter figures are important because they were the latest reported operating numbers in the supplied information before the board considered second-quarter and half-year results. The rise in revenue and profit provides reported context, but the information does not disclose the later September-quarter financial results or any board decision on an interim dividend.

What is ADF Foods considering for FY2027?

ADF Foods notified the stock exchanges on 31 October 2026 that its board meeting on 5 November 2026 would consider unaudited standalone and consolidated results for the quarter and half year ended 30 September 2026, along with a possible interim dividend for FY2027.

The notice was made under Regulation 29 of the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015. It did not disclose an interim dividend amount, a record date, an ex-date, or payment terms. As a result, the notice should not be treated as confirmation that an interim dividend has been approved.

ADF Foods also scheduled an earnings conference call for 6 November 2026 at 3:30 PM IST to discuss Q2 and H1 FY2026-27 results and operational performance. The supplied information does not include the outcome of the 5 November board meeting. Investors will need to rely on the company’s outcome filing for the actual financial results and any confirmed dividend decision.

Conclusion

ADF Foods’ confirmed FY2026 final dividend was ₹0.60 per share, with 5 August 2026 serving as both the ex-date and record date. The distribution extended the company’s record of paying dividends in each of the past seven financial years through FY2026, while the June 2026 quarter showed revenue of ₹167 crore and profit of ₹17 crore.

The next disclosed event to watch is the outcome of the 5 November 2026 board meeting, which was scheduled to consider Q2 and H1 FY2026-27 results and an interim dividend. The subsequent earnings call on 6 November 2026 is also scheduled to provide management commentary on the reported financial and operational performance.
