What is Dividend?
A dividend is a distribution of a portion of a company's earnings, decided by the board of directors, to a
class of its shareholders. Dividends can be issued as cash payments, as shares of stock, or other property.
Since it is shared from the company's cash reserves or profits, it generally indicates a healthy stock that
you are holding.

Tax on Dividends
Dividends is a 100% tax free income in the hands of the shareholder. However, Dividend Distribution Tax
(DDT) is usually paid by the company when they declare the dividends. As far as you, as an investor is
concerned., you are not liable to pay any taxes on dividends. Your dividend income is 100% exempt from
income tax. Read more about DDT (Dividend Distribution Tax) by clicking here.
Div Yield Vs Dividend %
As an investor, you should be usually focused on the Dividend Yield. Dividend Yield essentially tells you
the % return on your investment (at the current stock price). Do not get confused with the Dividend % that
the companies usually declare - which can be higher than 100% also in some cases.
As an example, if a stock's Face Value was Rs. 10 when it was introduced, maybe 10 years back, and now
the stock price has reached Rs. 1,000/-, and the company declares 100% dividend, then this means a
dividend of Rs. 10/- per stock (100% of the face value of stock price). But if you have purchased the stock
for Rs. 1,000/-, your Dividend Yield would be only 1%. This is the actual Return on your investment, and
this is what matters for an investor. This also means that your Dividend Yield may vary depending on the
price at which you buy the stock. So, the yield could be different for 2 different investors buying the stock
of a same company on two adjacent days.

Merits of High Dividend Stocks

View my complete profile

1. Dividend paying stocks are usually more stable. When stock market crashes, dividend stocks stands
tall. When everywhere there is panic, dividend stocks provides stability. People continue to hold on
to dividend stocks even during market crash. The reason is simple, they continue to earn dividends
even during market crash. In fact, champion investors end up buying more when such stocks crash
because they can lower the average cost of purchase and therefore increase the Dividend Yield.
2. If equity can generate regular income, there cannot be a better investment. And earning Dividends
is the best way to generate stable passive income. Once investors get hold of a good dividend
stocks, they never sell them. This gives dividend paying stocks its price stability.

stocks, they never sell them. This gives dividend paying stocks its price stability.
3. Value investors considers high dividend yield as a strong value indicator. Improving sales and profit
figures are one of the strongest fundamental indicators of quality stocks. Companies which shares
its profits consistently (dividends) are confident companies.
Demerits of High Dividend Stocks
1. Now, this is Catch 22. If a company is paying majority of its profits to its shareholders, it is
obviously not keen on investing this profit for business expansion and further growth. This
sometimes limits the capital appreciation of your stock, since the growth of the company is
constrained.
2. Beware of companies with fluctuating dividends and weak fundamentals. These could be new
players trying to attract investors.
3. Needless to say, Dividends cannot be the only criteria for you to buy a stock. The value analysis of
a stock is equally essential to buy it at the right price.

Summary
If you are a champion investor and looking for long term regular passive income, High Dividend Yield Blue
Chip Stocks are your best bet. But if you are looking for high growth stocks, you better look out for value
stocks that re-invest their profits for growth. Personally, I favor the former.

Hi Avadhut
Capital appreciation all depends on the price at which you buy and also your confident to
keep buying during dips and reducing your average purchase cost.
Generally anywhere between 10 to 25 % CAGR had been my experience.
