AI summary

LIC Board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 10 per share (Rs 20 per share pre-bonus) for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the 5th AGM on July 27, 2026. The company also announced a 1:1 bonus issue with record date May 29, 2026 and deemed allotment date June 1, 2026. For the year ended March 31, 2026, standalone profit after tax grew 19% to Rs 5,742 crore (vs Rs 4,815 crore in FY 2024-25), with EPS at Rs 90.78. Gross premium income stood at Rs 4.88 lakh crore. NPA ratios improved with Gross NPAs at 1.21% (vs 1.46% last year).

Likely market impact

The 1:1 bonus issue will double the number of shares outstanding, and the dividend on pre-bonus basis is higher than previous year's final dividend of Rs 12, indicating positive shareholder returns. The strong 19% profit growth and improved asset quality are bullish signals for the stock.
