Blue Dart dividend 2025: ₹25 payout and record date details

Blue Dart Express Ltd (NSE: BLUEDART) has declared an equity dividend of ₹25 per share, with the ex-dividend date and record date set for 06-Aug-2025. The declaration date shown in the provided data is 26/05/2025, and the dividend is listed as a final payout for FY2024-25 in the dividend history table.

For shareholders, the key takeaway is eligibility. The company’s dividend schedule indicates investors must hold shares on or before the record date to receive the payout, and purchases on or after the ex-date will not be eligible. Dividend yields and price snapshots in the provided information vary across timestamps and sources, so the dividend yield shown alongside this ₹25 payout ranges from roughly 0.38% to about 0.52%.

What Blue Dart announced

Blue Dart Express has declared a dividend of ₹25.00 per share. The dividend is described as an equity share dividend and is listed in multiple places as the latest dividend for the company. One entry also summarises it as “Dividend - Rs 25 Per Sh” with a face value of ₹10.

The data also notes that Blue Dart has declared 6 dividends since 2021, placing the latest announcement within a pattern of regular annual cash payouts.

Key dates investors should track

The dividend schedule in the provided text repeatedly highlights 06-Aug-2025 for both the ex-dividend date and record date. Some entries also list “Dividends Date” as 06-Aug-2025.

The same dataset explains the eligibility rule in plain terms: registered shareholders who own the shares on or before the record date are eligible, while buyers on or after the ex-dividend date are not entitled to the payout.

Eligibility rule: record date vs ex-dividend date

The information provided uses a standard market convention:

• Record date (06-Aug-2025): the date the company checks its shareholder register to determine who is eligible.
• Ex-dividend date (06-Aug-2025): the date from which new buyers of the stock do not receive the declared dividend.

Because both dates are listed as the same day in the provided data, investors who want the dividend need to ensure their purchase settles in time so they appear as shareholders by the record date.

Dividend amount and reported yield

The dividend per share is consistently listed as ₹25.00 across the tables and bullet points. Dividend yield, however, is shown with slight differences in the provided extracts:

• Dividend yield shown as 0.50% in one section.
• Dividend yield shown as 0.51% and 0.52 elsewhere.
• A separate snapshot reports 0.38% forward dividend yield and dividend yield, along with a payout ratio of 24.25%.

These differences can occur because yield is calculated using the prevailing market price at the time of measurement and different sources can capture different timestamps.

When shareholders may receive the money

Dividend history: payouts shown since FY2020-21

The provided tables list a sequence of final and interim dividends. They include six dividends since 2021 and also show amounts for FY2020-21.

Price snapshots and key ratios shown in the data

The provided text includes multiple price points captured at different times. One section answers that the “current share price” is ₹4,972.6. Another shows ₹4,950.75 (with a change of +88.05, 1.81% on BSE at 04:01 PM). Elsewhere, the “latest trading price” is listed as ₹4,740 as of 29 May 15:30, while another snapshot states the share price is ₹5,017.00 as on 15 May, 2026.

Alongside these price references, one block lists company metrics including market cap ₹15,587 Cr, ROE 16.19%, P/E (TTM) 58.52, EPS (TTM) 112.25, P/B 10.00, debt to equity 0.65, and face value ₹10. Book value is shown as ₹656.98 in one snapshot, while another table lists book value per share ₹748.82.

Market impact: what this dividend changes and what it does not

A ₹25 dividend is a direct cash return to eligible shareholders, and it typically results in an adjustment in the stock price around the ex-dividend date by approximately the dividend amount, all else equal. The provided dataset does not quantify the actual ex-date price adjustment for 06-Aug-2025, so the only confirmed market-related facts here are the dates, the cash amount, and the yields reported by different sources.

For income-focused investors, the practical impact is clearer: the annual cash payout shown in the latest year is ₹25, and dividend yield depends on the share price used for calculation. For valuation-focused investors, the data provides context such as P/E, ROE, and payout ratio (24.25% in one snapshot), which can help assess sustainability, but the article data does not include management commentary or an earnings outlook tied to the dividend.

Analysis: why the 06-Aug-2025 dates matter most

In dividend events, dates drive eligibility. The provided text explicitly warns that buying on or after the ex-dividend date will make an investor ineligible, even if the investor holds shares later. Because both the record date and ex-date are listed as 06-Aug-2025, the cut-off is tight, and investors need to focus on settlement timelines rather than just the calendar date.

The history table also indicates that Blue Dart has maintained a pattern of annual dividends (with one interim dividend in FY2021-22). The latest payout of ₹25 aligns with the last year’s full-year dividend cited in the dataset.

Conclusion

Blue Dart Express’s latest declared dividend is ₹25 per share, with both the ex-dividend date and record date on 06-Aug-2025, and a declaration date shown as 26/05/2025. Shareholders eligible by the record date are expected to receive the dividend in 25 to 45 business days after 06-Aug-2025, as stated in the provided information. Investors tracking the stock for income should focus on the cut-off dates and the yield calculations, which vary in the data based on the share price at the time of measurement.
