NFL dividends since 1 April 2021

Amounts as the company declared them on the NSE. A dividend goes to whoever owns the shares before the ex-date.

Yes. National Fertilizer Ltd paid out 24% of its profit as dividends in FY26, and it paid a dividend in 7 of its last 12 reported years. One of those years shows a negative figure because profit itself was negative.

From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 5 November 2026.

National Fertilizer Ltd earned ₹113 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹211 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 0.7% a year on average. That is 2.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹39.0 Cr. 4 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹211 Cr (+14.7% on the year before).

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −64.6% and revenue +24.1%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth.

National Fertilizer Ltd reported ₹4,500 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +27.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 10 years it has grown 10.7% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹21,519 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹22,480 Cr.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

FY26 revenue was ₹21,519 Cr, +8.7% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +24.1% on average, against 10.7% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +23.3%, against −2.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +136.4%, against +17.6% a year (accelerating).

National Fertilizer Ltd's operating margin was 6.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 3.7 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 12 years it has been between 2.4% and 8.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Operating margin is what is left from every ₹100 of sales after the costs of running the business, before interest and tax. It shows pricing power and cost control.

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +3.6 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +1.4 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales.

Over the last 3 years, 352% of National Fertilizer Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 its operations used ₹1,342 Cr of cash, against ₹211 Cr of profit. After ₹234 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹1,576 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why 352% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 17 days longer between FY21 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives.

What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets.

National Fertilizer Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 81 days in FY26, up from 64 days in FY21. It spent ₹688 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 92 days to pay, and stock sits for 29 days on average.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

At FY26 sales of ₹21,519 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹59.0 Cr, so roughly ₹4,775 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

FY26: customers took 92 days to pay and stock sat for 29 days, about 1.0 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 81 days, longer than FY21's 64.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 29 days. Customers pay about 92 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 40 days. Together that makes the 81-day cycle.

Spending on assets: ₹688 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹1,140 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is spending about what it takes to replace what wears out, or less. Work still in progress is ₹161 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet.

In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean.

National Fertilizer Ltd's P/E is 8.3×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 24% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 14.3×, over 10 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee of yearly profit.
