Bank of Baroda

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Bank of Baroda Limited offers a range of banking products and services to individuals, government departments, and corporate customers both in India and internationally, with a market cap of ₹1.28 trillion.

Operations: Bank of Baroda Limited's revenue segments include Treasury at ₹316.82 billion, Other Banking Operations at ₹110.76 billion, Corporate/Wholesale Banking at ₹502.78 billion, and Retail Banking comprising Digital Banking and Other Retail Banking totaling ₹512.25 billion.

Dividend Yield: 3.1%

Bank of Baroda's dividend yield is in the top 25% of Indian market payers, supported by a low payout ratio of 20.9%, indicating dividends are well covered by earnings. However, past dividend payments have been volatile and unreliable. Recent strategic initiatives include launching a co-branded travel debit card with EaseMyTrip.com, enhancing customer offerings but not directly impacting dividends. The bank's high level of bad loans at 2.9% could pose risks to future dividend stability.
