id=\"What_is_the_minimum_public_shareholding_requirement_for_listed_companies_in_India\"><\/span><strong>What is the minimum public shareholding requirement for listed companies in India?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> SEBI requires most listed companies to maintain at least 25% public shareholding, though certain government-owned companies are given extended timelines to comply, which is why some PSU stocks still carry promoter holding above 75%.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_there_smaller_less_liquid_names_with_even_higher_promoter_holding_in_this_space\"><\/span><strong>Are there smaller, less liquid names with even higher promoter holding in this space?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Some smaller companies outside this list carry promoter holding above the names shown here, but they were excluded due to thin trading volumes or incomplete shareholding data on major data platforms.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_can_I_check_the_latest_shareholding_pattern_before_investing_in_a_stock\"><\/span><strong>How can I check the latest shareholding pattern before investing in a stock?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> The latest shareholding pattern for any listed company is available on the NSE and BSE websites under corporate filings, updated every quarter within the statutory disclosure deadline set by SEBI.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_high_promoter_holding_stocks_pay_regular_dividends\"><\/span><strong>Do high promoter holding stocks pay regular dividends?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Dividend policy varies by company even within a high promoter holding group, so investors should check each company&#8217;s dividend history and payout ratio individually rather than assuming high promoter holding implies a higher dividend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 FMCG Stocks With High Promoter Holding \u2014 Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd, Dabur India Ltd, Nestle India Ltd, Hindustan
