Let's review some notable picks from our screened stocks.

Indian Oil

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

Overview: Indian Oil Corporation Limited operates in refining, pipeline transportation, and marketing of petroleum products across India, with a market capitalization of approximately ₹2.31 trillion.

Operations: Indian Oil Corporation Limited generates significant revenue from two primary segments: Petrochemicals, which brought in ₹2.62 billion, and Petroleum Products, accounting for ₹83.35 billion.

Dividend Yield: 8.3%

Indian Oil Corporation Limited, a significant player in the Indian energy sector, declared a final dividend of INR 7.00 per share for fiscal year 2023-2024, reflecting its commitment to shareholder returns despite recent fluctuations in earnings and management changes. The company's net income surged to INR 417.30 billion from INR 97.92 billion the previous year, showcasing robust profit growth. However, this financial upliftment is shadowed by a high level of debt and an unstable dividend track record over the last decade, raising concerns about long-term sustainability amidst forecasted declines in earnings.

Oil and Natural Gas

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

Overview: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited, operating both domestically and internationally, is involved in the exploration, development, and production of crude oil and natural gas with a market capitalization of approximately ₹3.57 trillion.

Operations: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited generates revenue primarily through refining and marketing, which contributes ₹56.75 billion, followed by offshore exploration and production at ₹9.43 billion, onshore exploration and production at ₹4.39 billion, and international operations accounting for ₹0.96 billion.

Dividend Yield: 4.3%

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) offers a dividend yield of 4.32%, ranking in the top quartile of Indian dividend payers. Despite this attractive yield, ONGC's dividend history has been marked by instability, with significant fluctuations over the past decade. However, both earnings and cash flows provide solid coverage for current dividends, with payout ratios of 31.3% and 32.5% respectively. Recent financials show a substantial year-over-year net income increase to INR 492.21 billion, supporting potential future dividend sustainability despite past volatility.

Swaraj Engines

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

Overview: Swaraj Engines Limited operates in India, focusing on the manufacture and sale of diesel engines, diesel engine components, and spare parts for tractors, with a market capitalization of approximately ₹30.40 billion.

Operations: Swaraj Engines Limited generates its revenue primarily from the production and sale of diesel engines and related components, totaling ₹14.19 billion.

Dividend Yield: 3.8%

Swaraj Engines has seen a 9.13% forecasted annual earnings growth and a 15.4% actual earnings growth over the past five years, suggesting potential for sustained profitability. Despite this, its dividend sustainability is under pressure with an 83.7% payout ratio and dividends poorly covered by cash flows at a 122% cash payout ratio. The recent hefty dividend announcement of INR 95 per share contrasts with these financial pressures. Additionally, a minor regulatory penalty of INR 62,667 poses no significant financial threat but highlights compliance risks.
