- The interim dividend is 13 percent higher than the previous year's payment.
- Infosys targets the return of about 85 percent of accumulated free cash flow over five years.
- The next scheduled shareholder-return step is the dividend payment in November.
Infosys has set the record date for its fiscal 2027 interim dividend, giving shareholders a near-term deadline for eligibility. EconoTimes reported on Monday, November 2, that the record date is Tuesday, November 3, while payment is scheduled for November 11.
Infosys will pay 26 rupees per share. The company announced the distribution alongside its September-quarter results on October 23, and the record date determines which shareholders qualify. The National Stock Exchange of India also lists November 3 as the ex-dividend date.
What Shareholders Need To Know
Because of the Indian market's T+1 settlement cycle, Monday, November 2, is the last regular trading day cited for investors seeking eligibility for the interim payment. The timetable separates the board's dividend decision from the later record-date and payment mechanics, which are the key dates for shareholders tracking the cash return.
The payout is 13 percent higher than the previous year's interim dividend of 23 rupees per share. Based on Infosys' October 30 NSE closing price of 1,185 rupees, the interim distribution implied a yield of 2.19 percent, according to EconoTimes. That calculation is a reference yield rather than a guaranteed return, because the share price can change before and after the relevant dates.
Infosys paid a total dividend of 48 rupees per share for fiscal 2026. At the same October 30 reference price, that completed fiscal-year distribution represented an indicative yield of 4.05 percent. Infosys has not announced a full-year fiscal 2027 dividend, so the interim payment does not establish the final annual payout.
Capital Return Remains In Focus
The company's capital-return policy, effective from fiscal 2025, targets the distribution of about 85 percent of accumulated free cash flow over five years. The policy allows a mix of semiannual dividends, share buybacks and special dividends, subject to applicable laws and required approvals.
For investors, the announced interim payment provides a defined cash-return event while the final fiscal 2027 distribution remains open. The next scheduled step is the November 11 payment. Infosys' stock traded at 11.28 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 09:06 CET on Monday, November 2. The real-time quote of Infosys stock provides the current trading reference.
