Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Indian Oil Corporation.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Total ESG risk: 36.8
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Indian Oil Corporation's overall score of 36.8 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty weak – landing it in it in the 76th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Indian Oil Corporation is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 23.2/100
Indian Oil Corporation's environmental score of 23.2 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Indian Oil Corporation is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 14.03/100
Indian Oil Corporation's social score of 14.03 puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Indian Oil Corporation is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Governance score: 9.57/100
Indian Oil Corporation's governance score puts it squarely in the 6th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Indian Oil Corporation is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Controversy score: 2/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Indian Oil Corporation scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that Indian Oil Corporation has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
Dividend payout ratio: 68.18% of net profits
Recently Indian Oil Corporation has paid out, on average, around 68.18% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 10.42% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Indian Oil Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 10.42% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Indian Oil Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about INR2.4 per share.
Indian Oil Corporation's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 11 August 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Indian Oil Corporation's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 30 June 2022. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Indian Oil Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Indian Oil Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Indian Oil Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Indian Oil Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as INR65.2 up to INR87.6958. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NSE average) beta is 1, while Indian Oil Corporation's is 0.6914. This would suggest that Indian Oil Corporation's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
