HB Portfolio's board, meeting on 11 November 2025, declared an interim dividend of Re. 1 per equity share (10% on the Rs. 10 face value) for FY 2025-26. The record date for eligibility is fixed at 17 November 2025, with payment to be made on or before 10 December 2025. The board also approved Q2 FY26 results — standalone, the company swung to a loss of Rs. 72.54 lakhs (vs a profit of Rs. 379.16 lakhs in Q1 FY26), driven by negative revenue from operations of Rs. 20.64 lakhs. On a consolidated basis, Q2 profit was a modest Rs. 7.53 lakhs. The board additionally appointed Ms. Meenu Papreja as Company Secretary and Compliance Officer effective the same date.
Shareholders holding shares by 17 November 2025 will receive the Re. 1 dividend, providing a near-term cash return. However, the weak Q2 standalone loss and largely flat consolidated earnings suggest the dividend is being paid from reserves rather than strong quarterly earnings, which investors should note.
