How this calculator works

Cash dividend percentages are applied to the paid-up value entered, not to the price you paid. The model taxes cash and the capitalized nominal bonus value separately, then deducts both from the declared gross cash. It never reduces the bonus share count by the tax rate.

Gross cash = Q × F × C/100; bonus = Q × B/100; tax = (gross cash + nominal bonus value) × tax rate; cash balance = gross cash − tax.

A worked example

For 100 shares of NPR 100 paid-up value, 10% cash and 20% bonus give NPR 1,000 gross cash and 20 bonus shares. At 5%, cash tax is NPR 50 and bonus tax NPR 100, leaving NPR 850 cash.

What the result assumes

  • Cash and bonus rates refer to the same eligible old holding. Tax defaults to the general 5% assumption; exemptions and special distributions require an applicable rate.
  • A declaration may say cash is included for tax purposes. Enter that gross cash rate once; do not add it again as an extra dividend. This model assumes declared cash is available to pay both cash and bonus withholding.
  • If gross cash does not cover modeled withholding, the result shows a cash top-up estimate instead of pretending cash was paid. Registrar collection and fractional entitlement policies may differ.
  • Nominal bonus value is used for this dividend-tax model. It is not a market valuation or automatically the accepted CGT cost basis when shares are sold.

Figures are scenario estimates under the stated assumptions. For an actual payment, allotment or sale, reconcile the result with the issuer notice, accepted cost-basis record and broker/registrar statement.
