Colgate Palmolive India declared a first interim dividend of Rs 24 per share for FY2025-26, totalling Rs 652.8 crore. Record date is November 3, 2025 and payment starts November 19, 2025. Q2 net sales fell 6.3 percent to Rs 1,507 crore from Rs 1,609 crore, with 6.1 percent sequential growth. Net profit fell to Rs 328 crore from Rs 395 crore; excluding a one-time tax refund interest gain in the base period, the decline was 7.2 percent.
Rs 24 dividend supports shareholder income, but lower sales and profit growth could weigh on the share price.
