Ex-dividend record date today. Rs 10 final dividend (FY26). Adjusted from Rs 426.60 (theoretical ex-div price ~Rs 416.60). Q4 PAT Rs 23,420 Cr (+23%). AGM: recently.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/stocks\/lici\/life-insurance-corporation-of-india-share-price-today\">LIC<\/a> share price is trading at Rs 424.15 today, down 0.57% from the previous close of Rs 426.60, as the company&#8217;s shares trade ex-dividend for the Rs 10 per share final dividend declared for the recently concluded financial year. The record date is today: investors who held LIC shares as of the close of yesterday&#8217;s trading session are eligible for the dividend, while those who purchase shares today or later will not receive the payout. Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst at Univest explains the mechanics of the ex-dividend adjustment, the LIC share price&#8217;s relationship to the adjusted reference price, and what the broader corporate action picture , including the 1:1 bonus issue completed recently , means for shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>On an ex-dividend day, stock exchanges theoretically adjust the reference price downward by the dividend amount. For the LIC share price, the theoretical ex-dividend adjustment from the previous close of Rs 426.60 is approximately Rs 10, putting the adjusted reference price at approximately Rs 416.60. The current LIC share price of Rs 424.15 is approximately Rs 7.55 above this adjusted reference price, suggesting that market participants are buying the dip created by the ex-dividend adjustment , a positive signal for the stock. The LIC share price opened at Rs 423.00 and touched an intraday high of Rs 429.85 before settling near current levels, indicating active two-way trading on the ex-dividend record date.<\/p>\n<p

style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\"><strong>Track LIC Share Price and Corporate Actions on Univest Screener<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The LIC share price ex-dividend adjustment must be understood in the context of a significant recent corporate action: LIC completed its first-ever bonus share issue in a 1:1 ratio, granting one bonus share for every share held as of the recently26 record date. This means the number of LIC shares in the market doubled. The Rs 10 dividend announced for this year is on a post-bonus basis (i.e., Rs 10 per new share including bonus shares), which is equivalent to Rs 20 per pre-bonus share. LIC paid Rs 12 per share in the previous financial year on a pre-bonus basis, making the effective Rs 20 post-bonus equivalent a significant increase in absolute payout. This LIC share price context is important for investors calculating dividend yield: at the current LIC share price of Rs 424.15, the Rs 10 dividend represents a yield of approximately 2.36%.<\/p>\n<p>The fundamental underpinning of the LIC share price remains solid. For the recently26 quarter, LIC reported consolidated net profit of Rs 23,420 crore, up approximately 23.2% year-on-year from Rs 19,013 crore. Net premium income for the quarter rose approximately 11.6% to Rs 1.7 lakh crore. Assets under management reached Rs 57.29 lakh crore as of recently26, up approximately 5% year-on-year. The Value of New Business (VNB) grew approximately 42% in the recently concluded year. Multiple brokerages maintain Buy ratings on the LIC share price, with ICICI Securities and Emkay Global both expressing confidence in the product mix improvement and VNB margin expansion trajectory. The LIC share price today also carries the additional headwind of CFO Sunil Agrawal&#8217;s resignation (covered in a separate article), though the stock is holding above the adjusted reference price on both counts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_LIC_Share_Price_on_Ex-Dividend_Day\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion: LIC Share Price on Ex-Dividend Day<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The LIC share price at Rs 424.15 today is navigating its ex-dividend day with the Rs 10 final dividend creating a theoretical downward adjustment that the market has partially absorbed through buying interest. The LIC share price is approximately Rs 7.55 above the theoretical ex-dividend adjusted price, a mild positive. The Rs 10 dividend (equivalent to Rs 20 pre-bonus) subject to shareholder approval at the recently AGM, combined with Q4 FY26 PAT of Rs 23,420 crore and a 42% VNB growth, gives the LIC share price fundamental support beyond the technical ex-dividend adjustment.
