Introduction: Page Industries’ Rise in Dividends

When it comes to rewarding shareholders, Page Industries has set a remarkable standard. Known for its consistent dividend payouts, the company has steadily evolved its dividend history from modest single-digit amounts to a record-high interim dividend of Rs 250 per share. This growth reflects both Page Industries’ robust financial health and its commitment to sharing profits with its shareholders, making it a favorite among long-term investors.

The journey reached a milestone in 2018 when Page Industries declared a triple-digit dividend of Rs 110, underscoring its rapid growth and increased profitability.

In the past year alone, Page Industries has declared dividends totaling Rs 595 per share, demonstrating its dedication to regular and generous returns. Since August 27, 2007, the company has declared an impressive 67 dividends.
