Every Singtel dividend this year and last

Singtel pays twice a year. Since August 2024, each payout has come in two parts paid on the same day: a core dividend that tracks profit, and a value realisation dividend paid from the sale of stakes in other businesses. The tables give both, with the last day to buy for each.

Singtel’s financial year runs from April to March, and Singtel names it by the year it ends in: FY2026 is April 2025 to March 2026. The interim dividend comes with the half-year results in November and is paid in December; the final comes with the full-year results in May and is paid in August, after shareholders approve it at the annual general meeting in July. Amounts are Singapore cents a share, one-tier (not taxed).

Singtel’s dividend policy, then and now

Singtel’s dividend page sets out today’s policy. “Barring unforeseen circumstances”, Singtel plans to pay a core dividend of 70% to 90% of underlying net profit, “which will track business performance”, and a value realisation dividend of 3 to 6 cents a share a year “over the medium term, funded by excess capital generated from asset recycling proceeds after investing in growth initiatives”. Asset recycling means selling stakes in businesses Singtel owns, such as part of its holdings in Airtel. The value realisation dividend is on top of the core dividend, and it depends on those sales, not on profit.

Alongside it, Singtel is buying back and cancelling up to S$2.0 billion of its own shares, “funded by excess capital from asset recycling proceeds”, until the financial year ending March 2028. Its 13 Nov 2026 release says S$1.0 billion had been bought back and cancelled so far. Fewer shares means each future dividend is shared among fewer holders.

How Singtel’s dividend policy has changed
SaidPolicyIn Singtel’s words
May 2024Core dividend of 70% to 90%, plus a value realisation dividend of 3 to 6 cents a year“the Group has added a new value realisation dividend of 3 to 6 cents per share per annum, on top of the core dividend, to increase shareholder returns over the medium term.”
Nov 202370% to 90% of underlying net profit“Dividend policy raised to between 70% and 90% of underlying net profit”
May 201817.5 cents a year for FY2019 and FY2020, then back to 60% to 75%“Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects to maintain its ordinary dividends of 17.5 cents per share for the next two financial years and thereafter, will revert to the payout of between 60% and 75% of underlying net profit.”
May 201360% to 75% of underlying net profit“The Group has raised its dividend payout range to 60% to 75% of underlying net profit, from 55% to 70% previously.”
Nov 201055% to 70% of underlying net profit“The Group has increased its dividend payout ratio to between 55 to 70 per cent of underlying net profit, from the previous ratio of 45 to 60 per cent.”
May 201045% to 60% of underlying net profit“within the Group’s dividend payout range of 45 to 60 per cent”

From Singtel’s results releases, linked by date, and its dividends page. “Underlying net profit” is Singtel’s profit before one-off gains and losses, such as gains from selling a stake. Each policy says “barring unforeseen circumstances” or similar: it’s what Singtel plans, not a promise.

Singtel dividends since 2010

Singtel paid 17.5 cents a share in ordinary dividends every year from FY2015 to FY2019. Covid-19 then cut it. For the FY2020 final, Singtel paid 5.45 cents instead of the 10.7-cent final it had paid every year since FY2015, and wrote: “This reduction in dividend payout is prudent to conserve financial headroom to cope with uncertainties in the current COVID-19 operating environment and the capacity to invest in 5G” (Singtel, 28 May 2020). FY2021’s total, 7.5 cents, is the lowest since 2010, and the core dividend has risen every year since. There have been three specials since 2010: 10 cents with the FY2011 final; 3 cents with the FY2018 interim, out of the proceeds of selling most of Singtel’s stake in NetLink Trust (Singtel, 9 Nov 2017); and 5 cents for FY2023, paid in two 2.5-cent tranches “to share the benefits of the Group’s asset recycling initiatives with shareholders” (Singtel, 10 Nov 2022). Since August 2024, the value realisation dividend has come with every payout.

Each announcement date links to the Singtel release the amount comes from. Ex-dates, record dates and pay dates are from Singtel’s investor calendar; before 2015 it calls the record date the “books closure date”. A dash means the calendar doesn’t give that date: it starts in 2010, so the January 2010 payout has no ex-date or record date, and the January 2017 payout has no record date. The calendar gives the January 2012 pay date as 15 Jan 2012, a Sunday; we show it as Singtel does.

Has Singtel paid dividends in shares?

Only once. Singtel’s scrip dividend page lists one payout where shareholders could take new shares instead of cash: the FY2021 interim dividend of 5.1¢ a share, at an issue price of S$2.422 a share. 53.95% of it was taken in shares. Its ex-date, 26 Nov 2020, came weeks earlier than the mid-December ex-dates of the years around it, and it was paid on 15 Jan 2021. Every other dividend since 2010 has been cash.

The dates, and how long Singtel takes

The dates of Singtel’s interim dividend and value realisation dividend, step by stepInterim dividend and value realisation dividend: 9 cents a share

  1. Announced

    Singtel announces the dividend with its results and fixes the dates.

    Fri 13 Nov 2026

  2. Last day to buy Next

    The market day before the ex-date. A trade settles two market days later (SGX Rule 9.2.1), so shares bought by this day’s close are on the register in time.

    Fri 27 Nov 2026, 14 days after the announcement

  3. Ex-date

    From this day the share trades without the dividend: a share bought now doesn’t get it.

    Mon 30 Nov 2026

  4. Record date

    The day Singtel counts its shareholders: whoever is on the register then is paid.

    Tue 1 Dec 2026

  5. Paid

    Singtel pays the dividend.

    Fri 11 Dec 2026, 11 days after the ex-date

Dates from Singtel’s dividend page, read by hand on 13 Nov 2026. Weekends and Singapore public holidays aren’t market days. The dividend calendar has every company’s dates.

Since FY2023, when the interim moved to December, Singtel’s interim dividends have reached shareholders a median 28 days after the half-year results, and its finals 89 days after the full-year results, since a final waits for the annual general meeting in July. From the ex-date to the cash took a median of 19 days for interims and 19 for finals.

Three dates matter, and only one of them is for you to act on. The last day to buy is the market day before the ex-date: own the shares at that day’s close and the dividend is yours. From the ex-date, the share trades without the dividend. The record date is the day Singtel counts its shareholders. Since Singapore moved to two-day settlement, Singtel’s ex-date has been the market day before its record date.

Questions

Does Singtel pay dividends every quarter?

No. Singtel pays twice a year: an interim dividend declared with the half-year results in November and paid in December (in January until 2022), and a final dividend declared with the full-year results in May and paid in August. Every payout since 2010 has been declared with one of those two sets of results.

What is Singtel’s value realisation dividend?

It’s an extra dividend Singtel added in May 2024, of 3 to 6 cents a share a year, paid on top of the core dividend and on the same days. The money comes from selling stakes in other businesses, such as part of Singtel’s holding in Airtel, not from the year’s profit, so it can change even when profit doesn’t. So far it has added 3.8 cents for FY2024, 4.7 cents for FY2025 and 5.1 cents for FY2026, and 1.9 cents with the FY2027 interim. The policy section has Singtel’s own words.

If I sell on the ex-date, do I still get the dividend?

Yes. What counts is owning the shares at the close of the last day to buy. Shares sold on or after the ex-date still settle after the record date, so the dividend comes to you. The buyer gets the next one.

Are Singtel dividends taxed?

Not in Singapore. Singtel’s results releases have called its dividends “one-tier tax exempt”. IRAS lists among dividends that are generally not taxable “Dividends paid to shareholders by a Singapore resident company under the one-tier corporate tax system (as the tax paid by a company is final)”, and asks you to declare only taxable dividends in your return.

Why do websites show different Singtel dividend amounts?

Three reasons. Some add the value realisation dividend to the core dividend and some don’t: for December 2026, that’s 9 cents or 7.1 cents. Some add up by the calendar year the cash arrived, not Singtel’s April-to-March financial year, so the December interim and the August final of different financial years land in one total. And some count the FY2024 value realisation dividend in the year it was paid, since its second 1.9-cent tranche was paid with the FY2025 interim. Every figure here is Singtel’s own, from the release linked beside it, and our year totals match Singtel’s dividends page. To compare with a site that counts by calendar year, switch the chart to “By year paid”.

How much will Singtel’s next dividend be?

Singtel doesn’t say before its results. The policy gives a range, 70% to 90% of underlying net profit for the core dividend and 3 to 6 cents a year of value realisation dividend, and the final for FY2027 is due with the full-year results in May 2027. We add each payout here once Singtel announces it.

Where can I see other SGX dividends?

Our Singapore dividend calendar lists the payouts announced by the companies, REITs and ETFs we follow, read from their own pages, with the last day to buy for each. See also our DBS, OCBC, UOB and SIA dividend pages.

Changes to this page

No corrections yet. The first one will be listed here, with the date and what changed.

  1. New: Singtel dividend page. Singtel’s 9-cent FY2027 interim dividend declared today (7.1 cents core plus 1.9 cents value realisation), with the last day to buy; what your shares get; Singtel’s dividend policy since 2010 in its own words; the one scrip dividend; and every payout since 2010, each linked to the Singtel release it comes from. Singtel’s payouts on the dividend calendar are now typed in from its releases too, so today’s is there. See the page

How we know this

Every amount comes from Singtel’s own half-year and full-year results releases, one for each payout and each linked beside it, back to November 2009, and the year totals for FY2015 to FY2026 match the table on Singtel’s dividends page. The ex-dates, record dates and pay dates are from Singtel’s investor calendar, and the scrip figures from its scrip dividend page, all read on 13 November 2026, the day Singtel announced its FY2027 interim. The last day to buy is ours: the market day before the ex-date, skipping weekends and MOM’s public holidays; it’s blank for payouts before 2025, which our holiday list doesn’t cover. We don’t use SGX’s data or show Singtel’s share price, since SGX’s terms don’t allow it. Nothing here is advice to buy or sell. More dividends are on the Investing hub.
