How did we select these stocks?

In growing markets like India people generally buy stocks for increase in the share price, or capital gains. Dividend does not enter the calculation most of the time as dividend yields in India are low.

However, Dividend Yield stocks can be an interesting addition to your portfolio as they do better in uncertain times. They are also good for those who would like some regular income along with the equity upside.

A stock’s dividend yield is calculated as the company’s annual dividend per share divided by the current price of the stock.

The key to buying high dividend yield stock is also trying to figure out if this dividend is sustainable. This is very difficult, if not impossible. However, we have used some additional parameters as proxy to the sustainability of the dividend.

Along with the highest dividend yield, we have used the MojoExpert™ Screener to add the following criteria

• The Dividend Yield is high- Greater than 3%
• The Net Debt to Equity of the company is less than zero. This eliminates companies that pay dividend but also have borrowed funds. We prefer companies paying out from their own cashflows.
• Over the last one year the profit should have been at least flat. To maintain dividend the profit need not grow but it should not be declining.
• The Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) should be more than 12%. A high ROCE is a sign of high profitability of a business.
• Quality which is Good or Excellent.
• Market Cap is greater than Rs. 5000 cr.

The output is as follows:
