Ujjivan Small Finance Bank

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

Overview: Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Limited offers a range of banking and financial services in India with a market capitalization of ₹73.68 billion.

Operations: Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Limited's revenue is primarily derived from its Retail Banking segment at ₹60.62 billion, followed by the Treasury segment at ₹7.92 billion and Wholesale Banking at ₹1.60 billion.

Dividend Yield: 3.9%

Ujjivan Small Finance Bank's dividend yield is notably in the top 25% of Indian market payers, yet its dividends have been unstable over the past two years. The bank trades at a significant discount to its estimated fair value and maintains a low payout ratio of 22.6%, suggesting dividends are well covered by earnings. However, recent earnings have declined year-over-year, which could impact future dividend stability despite forecasts indicating improved coverage within three years.
