'We wish to inform you that the Board of Directors at its meeting held today has declared interim dividend@ 182.50% i.e. Rs. 18.25 per share on the paid-up equity share capital of the Company,' the company said in an exchange filing on August 19. This marks the company's second-largest dividend payout and its fourth dividend declaration since the bonus issue in October 2023. Additionally, the company has announced the record date for determining eligible shareholders for its dividend payout. Kama Holdings has set August 15, 2025, as the dividend record date. 'Dividend would be paid to members whose names appear on the Register of Members and the beneficial owners as per details received from National Securities Depository Limited and Central Depository Services (India) Limited, as on the Record Date i.e. Monday, the 25th August 2025,' it said.

Largecap vs midcap vs smallcap: Which segment should you bet on post Q1 results?
The June quarter earnings season for India Inc. largely met expectations, with analysts describing it as a 'crossover quarter,' a transition from the subdued, low single-digit earnings growth of FY25 to a more sustainable double-digit growth trajectory. For Nifty50 companies, Q1FY26 marked the fifth consecutive quarter of single-digit profit after tax (PAT) growth, but with a notable improvement. Aggregate PAT rose 8% YoY, beating analyst expectations of 4–5%. The severity of earnings cuts also moderated compared to previous quarters, even though the trend of downgrades persisted. Looking ahead, analysts expect earnings momentum to accelerate on the back of easing inflation, stronger liquidity conditions, an above-normal monsoon, and potential demand revival if the government's proposed GST rate cuts are implemented. Among the three market segments, midcaps once again stood out. According to Motilal Oswal, the 92 midcap companies under its coverage delivered 24% YoY earnings growth in Q1, exceeding its estimate of 20%. Seventeen of 22 midcap sectors posted double-digit PAT growth, extending their strong run for the third straight quarter. While 87 large caps under its coverage universe posted 10% YoY earnings growth, in line with expectations, and extended their impressive streak of 20 consecutive quarters of profit growth. Multiple large-cap sectors clocked impressive growth, with 16 of 19 sectors under its coverage delivering a PAT growth. Oil & Gas, Telecom, Private Banks, NBFC - Lending, and Technology were the key drivers of performance, which contributed 77% to the incremental YoY accretion in earnings. In sharp contrast, small-caps continued to underperform. Across 132 companies tracked by the brokerage, earnings fell 11% YoY against expectations of flat growth, with 46% of firms missing estimates. Weakness was most visible in private banks, NBFCs, insurance, oil & gas, and automobiles. JM Financial, in its latest report, also stated that the proportion of earnings misses was highest in small-caps, followed by large-caps, and then mid-caps. Specifically, 43% of small-cap companies missed expectations, compared to 28% in midcaps and 29% in large caps, said the brokerage. Motilal Oswal expects EPS growth for Nifty50 to rise to 9% in FY26, compared to just 1% in FY25, supported by a more favourable macro backdrop. Despite recent volatility triggered by tariff concerns, it believes the domestic earnings outlook and reasonable valuations should support modest market gains. Valuations remain near historical averages, with the Nifty trading at 22.2x FY26E earnings versus its long-period average of 20.7x. Motilal Oswal continues to maintain a bias toward large caps (70% weight) but has also turned more constructive on mid-caps (22% vs. 16% earlier) owing to their superior earnings delivery and improving growth prospects. From a sector perspective, the brokerage remains overweight on BFSI, consumer discretionary, industrials, healthcare, and telecom, while staying underweight on oil & gas, cement, real estate, and metals.
