Share price Rs 77 (29 Sep). 52-week range Rs 72.24-97.49.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#F0F9FF;border-left:4px solid #2E7D32;border-radius:6px;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;color:#1F4E79;font-size:14px;\"><strong>Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 0;\">The NMDC dividend for FY26 is a final payout of Rs 1 per share, or 100% of the Rs 1 face value, with a record date of Monday, 5 October 2026. Since India follows T+1 settlement and markets are shut on 2 October, Thursday, 1 October, is the last day to buy NMDC shares to qualify. Together with the Rs 2.50 interim dividend paid in March, NMDC&#8217;s FY26 payout totals Rs 3.50 per share, a yield of about 4.5% at the 29 September price of Rs 77.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The NMDC dividend is drawing attention as the record date approaches. India&#8217;s largest iron ore producer and a Navratna PSU, NMDC has fixed Monday, 5 October 2026, as the NMDC record date for its final dividend of Rs 1 per share for FY26, which shareholders approved at the company&#8217;s 68th annual general meeting on 28 September. NMDC share price closed at Rs 77 on 29 September.<\/p>\n<p>For investors looking to qualify for the NMDC dividend, timing matters. Under T+1 settlement, shares must be bought at least one trading day before the record date. With markets closed on Friday, 2 October, for Gandhi Jayanti and over the weekend, Thursday, 1 October, is the last trading day to buy NMDC shares and still receive the payout.<\/p>\n<p

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For the NMDC dividend, as for any payout, the record date is the day on which a company checks its register of shareholders to decide who receives the dividend. In India&#8217;s T+1 settlement cycle, shares bought on a trading day reach the buyer&#8217;s demat account the next trading day, and the ex-dividend date falls on the record date itself.<\/p>\n<p>For the NMDC dividend, that means shares bought on Thursday, 1 October, will be credited by Monday, 5 October, the record date. Shares bought on 5 October will not qualify. On the ex-date, NMDC share price usually adjusts downward by roughly the dividend amount.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NMDC_Dividend_Yield_and_History\"><\/span><strong>NMDC Dividend Yield and History<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>At the 29 September 2026 closing price of Rs 77, the Rs 1 final dividend works out to a yield of about 1.3%. Including the Rs 2.50 interim dividend paid in March 2026, the total FY26 NMDC dividend of Rs 3.50 per share gives a yield of about 4.5%, one of the higher yields among large PSU dividend stocks.<\/p>\n<p>The NMDC dividend has a long track record of regularity. The company typically pays an interim dividend early in the calendar year and a final dividend after its AGM. Over five years, its dividend has grown at about 6% a year, according to market data.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\"><strong>Screen high-yield PSU dividend stocks on the Univest Screener<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NMDC_Share_Price_and_Performance\"><\/span><strong>NMDC Share Price and Performance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>NMDC share price has been under pressure recently.
