Overview: Akzo Nobel India Limited, with a market cap of ₹114.88 billion, engages in the manufacturing, distribution, and sale of paints and coatings both in India and globally.
Operations: Akzo Nobel India Limited generates ₹39.40 billion from its coatings segment.
Dividend Yield: 3.6%
Akzo Nobel India's dividend yield stands at 3.57%, ranking in the top quartile of Indian dividend payers, supported by a payout ratio of 82.6% and cash payout ratio of 78.6%. Despite strong recent earnings growth of 31.5% and forecasted revenue growth of 11.44% annually, the company's dividend history over the past decade has been marked by volatility, reflecting an unstable track record in consistent dividend payments. This instability may raise concerns about long-term sustainability despite current coverage ratios being adequate.

Bharat Petroleum's dividend yield is competitive at 3.31%, placing it in the top 25% of Indian dividend payers. Despite a challenging forecast with earnings expected to decline by 40.2% annually over the next three years, its dividends appear sustainable with a modest payout ratio of 40% and a cash payout ratio of 9.3%.
