Overview: Coal India Limited, along with its subsidiaries, is involved in the production and marketing of coal and coal products in India, with a market cap of ₹3.32 trillion.
Operations: Coal India Limited generates revenue primarily from coal mining and services, amounting to ₹1.35 trillion.
Dividend Yield: 4.8%
Coal India Limited's recent earnings report showed a net income of INR 109.59 billion for Q1 2024, reflecting steady growth. However, its dividend payments are not well covered by free cash flows despite a low payout ratio of 42%. The stock offers a high dividend yield at 4.8%, making it attractive among Indian market peers.

Dividend Yield: 3%
HCL Technologies has a robust dividend history with payments increasing over the past decade. Its recent strategic partnership extension with Xerox and the appointment of a new CFO, Shiv Walia, indicate ongoing corporate stability. Despite a high payout ratio of 85.7%, dividends are covered by earnings and free cash flows (64.3%). However, its dividend track record is somewhat volatile, though it remains in the top 25% of Indian market payers at 3.04%.

Dividend Yield: 3.7%
PTC India offers a compelling dividend yield of 3.67%, placing it in the top 25% of Indian market payers, with a payout ratio of 54%. Despite its volatile and unreliable dividend history, recent earnings growth—net income rising to ₹1.74 billion in Q1 2024 from ₹1.30 billion a year ago—suggests improved financial health. The company's dividends are well-covered by both earnings and cash flows, although past instability remains a concern for long-term reliability.
