HCL Technologies, the country’s third-largest IT company, announced an interim dividend of ₹24 per share for FY26, along with its March quarter performance.

The tech giant said that its Board of Directors has recommended an interim dividend of ₹24 per equity share, marking the 93rd consecutive quarter of dividend payouts.

The company has also set Saturday April 25, as the record date to determine shareholders eligible for the dividend. The payout will be made on Tuesday, May 05.

Investors looking to benefit from this payout must ensure they own the stock before the record date. Under India’s T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on or after the record date will not qualify for the dividend.
