Patanjali Foods will be in focus because on September 3, 2025 it is the ex-date for its final dividend of Rs. 2.00 per share. For any company that is paying a dividend, the ex-date, also known as the ex-dividend date, is an important day. The stock starts trading "ex-dividend," or without the value of the upcoming dividend payment, on this date. In the instance of Patanjali Foods, you will be eligible to receive the dividend if you purchase the shares on or before the ex-date of September 2, 2025. If you purchase the stock on or after the ex-date of September 3, 2025, you will not be eligible to receive the dividend.

Patanjali Foods Dividend Yield & History

Since September 18, 2003, Patanjali Foods Ltd. has announced 18 dividends, according to Trendlyne data. Over the previous 12 months, Patanjali Foods Ltd. has paid out a total of Rs 8.00 per share during the last 12 months, which includes an interim dividend of Rs 8.00 announced on November 4, 2024, and a final dividend of Rs 2.00 announced on September 3, 2025. This payout corresponds to a trailing twelve-month dividend yield of around 0.45% at the current share price of Rs 1,795.75.

According to Wisesheets, this yield far exceeds the long-term historical average of about 0.28%. The Nifty FMCG index, which tracks top consumer goods companies, shows dividend yields that typically range between 1.5% and 2.6%, with the majority of constituents settling around the 2% mark. In contrast, Trendlyne reports that the broader FMCG sector in India has offered an average dividend yield of about 1.5% over the past year.

With a current dividend yield of around 0.45%, Patanjali Foods lags substantially below the ~2% yields seen among leading FMCG index firms and much below the FMCG sector average of roughly 1.5%.

Patanjali Foods Target Price

"Patanjali Foods is showing strength around ₹1,780 after retesting its support zone near ₹1,750. The overall structure remains positive, with the stock trading comfortably above its short-term moving averages. RSI indicates renewed bullish momentum, while stable volumes confirm accumulation at lower levels. Resistance is seen near ₹1,820-1,840, and a breakout above this could take the stock toward ₹1,900. Support remains intact at ₹1,750. The trend favors buying on dips with a short-term bullish outlook," commented Riyank Arora, technical analyst at Mehta Equities Ltd.
