Index dividend yields are published by NSE alongside the closing levels. The dividend index is the fairer comparison: measured against the broad market almost every instrument here looks generous. A higher yield is not automatically better — it can mean a falling price as easily as a rising payout, which is what the chart above separates.

Trailing twelve-month payout divided by that session’s closing price, so a move here is either the payout changing or the price changing — the two readings a single current yield cannot tell apart. Ranged 0.00% to 0.99% over this window, ending at 0.54%. Closes and payouts are both split-adjusted, so a split does not appear as a change in yield.

Splits and bonuses change the share count, so payouts declared before one are restated in the chart above to stay comparable. Buybacks, rights issues and mergers are listed for reference and do not affect those figures.
