Swaraj Engines
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Swaraj Engines Limited, based in India, specializes in manufacturing and selling diesel engines, diesel engine components, and spare parts for tractors, with a market capitalization of approximately ₹35.90 billion.
Operations: Swaraj Engines Limited generates its revenue primarily from the sale of diesel engines, components, and tractor spare parts, totaling approximately ₹14.19 billion.
Dividend Yield: 3.2%
Swaraj Engines offers a dividend yield of 3.21%, placing it in the top 25% of Indian dividend payers. However, its dividends are not well-covered by earnings or cash flows, with a payout ratio of 83.7% and a cash payout ratio over 100%. Despite this, Swaraj Engines has increased its dividend payments over the past decade, although these payments have shown volatility. Earnings growth is modest at around 9.13% annually, supported by a strong historical earnings growth rate of 15.4% per year over the past five years. The company's recent penalty under CGST Act is not expected to impact financials materially.

Ujjivan Small Finance Bank
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Limited offers a range of banking and financial services across India, with a market capitalization of approximately ₹86.66 billion.
Operations: Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Limited delivers a variety of financial services throughout India.
Dividend Yield: 3.3%
Ujjivan Small Finance Bank, recently initiating dividends, offers a yield of 3.35%, ranking in the top quartile of Indian dividend stocks. Its dividend sustainability is bolstered by a low payout ratio of 22.6%, with future earnings expected to cover dividends comfortably (17.2% forecasted payout ratio in three years). However, its short dividend history and high bad loans ratio (2.3%) introduce elements of uncertainty regarding long-term reliability. The bank's recent leadership changes could influence operational strategies moving forward.
Uniparts India
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Uniparts India Limited is a company that manufactures and sells engineering systems, solutions, assemblies, and components for off-highway vehicles across various global markets including India, the United States, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Japan, with a market capitalization of approximately ₹22.87 billion.
Operations: Uniparts India Limited generates revenue primarily through its linkage parts and components segment for off-highway vehicles, totaling ₹11.40 billion.

Despite this downturn, Uniparts maintains a reasonable dividend coverage with a payout ratio of 62.6%. The company has recently initiated dividend payments, making it premature to judge the stability or growth of these dividends.
