Shares of Infosys Limited slid in early trade on Wednesday, 10 June, touching a day low of Rs 1,158.60 on NSE after the IT major turned ex-dividend for its Rs 25 per share final dividend for FY26.

The dip was expected. When a stock goes ex-dividend, its price typically adjusts downward to reflect the payout leaving the company’s books. 

Shareholders whose names appear on the company’s register as of the record date of 10 June 2026 will be eligible to receive the Rs 25 per share final dividend, subject to shareholder approval.

Infosys had declared this final dividend on 24 April 2026, with 10 June fixed as both the ex-date and the record date. Investors who wanted to qualify had to own the shares by 9 June, the last trading day before the ex-date.

The Rs 25 final payout comes on top of an interim dividend of Rs 23 per share that Infosys paid in October 2025. Together, that takes the total FY26 dividend to Rs 48 per share. 

For comparison, the company paid Rs 22 as a final dividend and Rs 21 as an interim dividend in FY25, putting last year’s total at Rs 43 per share.

Infosys shares have lost around 27% over the past year on NSE, against a 7.1% fall in the Nifty 50. The stock hit a 52-week low of Rs 1,089 on 14 May 2026 and a 52-week high of Rs 1,728 on 3 February 2026.

At 10:32 am, INFY was trading at Rs 1,159.50, up 0.33% on NSE as the early-session dip was partially recovered through the morning session.
