The largest cash dividend of the year came from Nepal Life Insurance Co. Ltd. at 15.79%. The largest bonus issue was Jeevan Bikas Laghubitta Bittya Sanstha Ltd at 70%. More books closed in Dec 2021 than in any other month, 19 of them. A high headline percentage is not the same as a high yield: these are percentages of the share’s paid-up value, so a company trading far above par returns less to a buyer at today’s price than the number suggests.
Largest cash dividends
Percent of paid-up value. Most NEPSE shares are Rs 100 paid up, so 10% is Rs 10 a share.
Largest bonus issues
New shares per 100 held. The price adjusts down on book closure to account for them.

About 2077-78 dividends
- How many companies declared a dividend for 2077-78?
- 83 of the companies Punji tracks declared 83 dividends for fiscal year 2077-78 (2020-2021). 71 included a cash component and 76 included bonus shares.
- Which tracked company declared the highest dividend in 2077-78?
- Among the companies Punji tracks, Jeevan Bikas Laghubitta Bittya Sanstha Ltd (JBLB) declared the largest total for 2077-78 at 73.68% of paid-up value, split 3.68% cash and 70% bonus.
- What is the difference between cash dividend and bonus shares?
- A cash dividend pays rupees into your bank account and is taxed at 5 percent for individuals. Bonus shares issue new shares instead, so your holding grows while the price adjusts down for the extra shares. Both are quoted as a percentage of the paid-up value of the share, not of its market price, which is why a 100 rupee paid-up share paying 10 percent pays 10 rupees rather than 10 percent of what you paid for it.
- What is the book closure date?
- The book closure date is the cut-off. You must hold the share, settled in your DEMAT, before books close to receive that declaration. Buying on or after the book close date means the previous holder receives it, not you.
