Shreyans Industries (NSE:SHREYANIND) Has Affirmed Its Dividend Of ₹5.00
Shreyans Industries Limited (NSE:SHREYANIND) will pay a dividend of ₹5.00 on the 11th of September. Based on this payment, the dividend yield on the company's stock will be 2.0%, which is an attractive boost to shareholder returns.
Shreyans Industries' Projected Earnings Seem Likely To Cover Future Distributions
We like to see robust dividend yields, but that doesn't matter if the payment isn't sustainable. Based on the last payment, Shreyans Industries was earning enough to cover the dividend, but free cash flows weren't positive. In general, we consider cash flow to be more important than earnings, so we would be cautious about relying on the sustainability of this dividend.
Over the next year, EPS could expand by 9.6% if recent trends continue. If the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate the payout ratio will be 14%, which is in the range that makes us comfortable with the sustainability of the dividend.

Dividend Volatility
While the company has been paying a dividend for a long time, it has cut the dividend at least once in the last 10 years. Since 2015, the dividend has gone from ₹1.20 total annually to ₹5.00. This means that it has been growing its distributions at 15% per annum over that time. Despite the rapid growth in the dividend over the past number of years, we have seen the payments go down the past as well, so that makes us cautious.
The Dividend Has Growth Potential
Growing earnings per share could be a mitigating factor when considering the past fluctuations in the dividend. Shreyans Industries has impressed us by growing EPS at 9.6% per year over the past five years. With a decent amount of growth and a low payout ratio, we think this bodes well for Shreyans Industries' prospects of growing its dividend payments in the future.
Our Thoughts On Shreyans Industries' Dividend
Overall, we don't think this company makes a great dividend stock, even though the dividend wasn't cut this year. While Shreyans Industries is earning enough to cover the payments, the cash flows are lacking. We would probably look elsewhere for an income investment.
Investors generally tend to favour companies with a consistent, stable dividend policy as opposed to those operating an irregular one.
