Karachi: Habib Bank Limited has announced the successful crediting of its interim cash dividend of Rs. 5.00 per share, equivalent to 50%, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The dividend was deposited into the designated bank accounts of shareholders on November 11, 2025, following the board of directors’ decision made on October 23, 2025.

The company has adhered to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) Regulation 5.6.10, which mandates the crediting of interim cash dividends to shareholders within ten working days from the closure of the transfer of books. According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), Habib Bank Limited has fulfilled its obligation by ensuring timely distribution to its shareholders as per the regulatory guidelines.

The regulations require that the company must immediately notify the exchange once the dividend has been credited. A failure to comply with PSX Regulation 5.6.10(i) would result in the imposition of a fine as prescribed in PSX Regulation 5.21.1. However, in this instance, Habib Bank Limited has met the necessary compliance requirements without delay.

While the PSX regulations enforce strict adherence to dividend distribution timelines, they do not preclude actions by other authorities or individuals if deemed necessary. Habib Bank Limited’s compliance underscores its commitment to regulatory standards and shareholder satisfaction within the designated market category.
