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 ₹1.26 trillion.

Operations: Bank of Baroda Limited's revenue is primarily derived from Treasury (₹316.82 billion), Other Banking Operations (₹110.76 billion), Corporate/Wholesale Banking (₹502.78 billion), and Retail Banking, which includes Digital Banking (₹7.40 million) and Other Retail Banking (₹512.25 billion).

Dividend Yield: 3.1%

Bank of Baroda's dividend payments are well covered by earnings, with a low payout ratio of 20.9%, and are forecast to remain sustainable over the next three years. Despite this, its dividend history has been volatile over the past decade. Trading at 14.9% below estimated fair value, it offers good relative value compared to peers and industry standards. However, a high level of non-performing loans (2.9%) poses a risk to future financial stability and dividend reliability.
