IRCTC ₹0.50 final dividend goes ex: what holders should verify

MUMBAI, 22 September 2026 — Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Limited reaches the ex-date and record date for a ₹0.50-per-share final dividend. The action is attached to NSE symbol IRCTC and BSE code 542830.

The event in one view

Fifty paise is the cash fact—not a price forecast

The quoted amount is the final dividend attached to an eligible share. It does not require IRCTC’s market price to fall by exactly ₹0.50. Orders, broader transport and consumer-sector moves, index flows and company news can all affect the traded price during the same session.

The amount equals 25% of IRCTC’s ₹2 face value. This corporate-action convention should not be advertised as a 25% investment yield. The latter would need a market-price denominator and a disclosed calculation date.

What a holder can reconcile

The number of settled shares on the applicable record determines the starting gross arithmetic. From there, the registrar applies the company terms and withholding rules. Investors can compare the beneficial-owner statement, eventual entitlement and bank credit rather than relying on a screenshot of a market calendar.

Why both exchange records appear here

NSE and BSE show the same issuer, amount and date under separate identifiers. CapKet uses them as cross-checks and publishes one canonical report. September 22 is an eligibility milestone, not a claim that IRCTC declared the dividend today or completed payment today.
