Gujarat Pipavav Port trades at a P\/E of 14.05, NMDC trades at a P\/E of 7.98, CESC trades at a P\/E of 10.41, Chennai Petroleum Corporation trades at a P\/E of 3.95, National Aluminium Company trades at a P\/E of 8.79, against industry multiples ranging from 9.52 to 30.60. Higher multiples reflect faster growth but also leave less room for earnings misses, so entry price deserves attention.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_of_these_high_dividend_yield_stocks_pay_a_dividend\"><\/span><strong>Which of these high dividend yield stocks pay a dividend?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Dividend yields on this list are Gujarat Pipavav Port 6.40%, NMDC 5.17%, CESC 4.71%, Chennai Petroleum Corporation 4.10%, National Aluminium Company 3.56%.
