How to Find a Company's Announcements, Notices and Payouts on the PSX Data Portal

Find a listed company's announcements, CDC, SECP and PSX notices and payouts on the PSX data portal. We went through its menus and forms on 22 October 2026.

Short answer: The quickest way is the company's own page on the PSX data portal: open dps.psx.com.pk/company/ followed by the symbol, for example dps.psx.com.pk/company/UBL, and use its Announcements and Payouts tabs. For notices from PSX, CDC, NCCPL or SECP, use the Announcements menu, choose the type, enter the symbol and a month, and press Search.

A share you own drops 5 per cent and nobody tells you why. Or a dividend you expected has not reached your account. The company has usually told the exchange already, and the notice sits on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) data portal. We went through the portal's menus and search forms on 22 October 2026, and opened a company page on 8 November 2026. This is what each part is for.

Each company has one page with Announcements and Payouts tabs

Every listed company has its own page at dps.psx.com.pk/company/SYMBOL. When we opened the UBL page on 8 November 2026, it loaded without a login and showed eight tabs: Quote, Profile, Equity, Announcements, Financials, Ratios, Payouts and Reports.

The Announcements tab splits notices into Financial Results, Board Meetings and Others, each with a date, a title and a link to the PDF. On the UBL page the Others list included a notice dated 27 October 2026 titled "Credit of Third Interim Cash Dividend". That is the kind of notice to look for when a dividend has not reached you. The Equity tab shows the market value, the number of shares, the face value and the free float.

PayoutsThe company's dividend and bonus record
Financials and RatiosAnnual and quarterly figures, in thousands of rupees except EPS
EquityMarket value, shares, face value and free float
ProfileBusiness description, auditor and year end

Type the symbol in capital letters. If you do not know the symbol, use the Symbols search at the top of the portal.

The Announcements menu holds five notice types in one search form

The Announcements page has a type dropdown with five options: CDC Notices, SECP Notices, Companies Announcements, NCCPL Notices and PSX Notices. Companies Announcements is the default. Below it are boxes for a keyword, a company symbol, a month and a year, with Search and Clear buttons.

Type in the dropdownWho issues itUse it to find
Companies AnnouncementsThe listed companyResults, dividends, board meetings, changes in directors
PSX NoticesThe exchangeTrading rules, holidays, changes to the system
CDC NoticesCentral Depository CompanyNotices about share accounts and deposits
NCCPL NoticesNational Clearing Company of PakistanNotices about settlement of trades
SECP NoticesSecurities and Exchange Commission of PakistanNotices from the regulator

The "Use it to find" column is our plain description of each issuer's job, not a list taken from the portal. The page itself shows only the type names and the search boxes.

Five notice types in the PSX data portal Announcements search form

Search by company symbol and month to cut the noise

Companies announce often, so an open search is long. Type the company symbol, such as UBL or HUBC, choose the month and year, and press Search. The portal's own script asks for 50 results at a time. Use the keyword box for a word such as "dividend" or "board".

The results load on the page after you press Search. When we read the search page without a browser, the results area showed only a loading spinner. The company page above does not have this problem, because its lists load with the page.

The Announcements menu also lists Payouts. Its page has a company symbol box with Search and Clear buttons. Use it when you want to know what a company paid or plans to pay, and the dates that matter for it. If your dividend has not arrived, start here.

The steps for a missing payment are in the guide to claiming a dividend you did not receive. To see which of the big dividend payers carry an XD tag on a given day, read the list of PSX Dividend 20 companies.

Announcements menu items on the PSX data portal: notices, calendar, payouts and auction results

The menu also has a calendar, briefing sessions and reports

Under Announcements the portal also lists Corporate Briefing Sessions (CBS), AGM/EOGM Calendar and GIS Auction Results. Under Companies it lists Listing Status and Circuit Breakers. Under Reports it lists Downloads, Financial Reports, Analysis Reports, ND Verification, PSX Indices Div. Discount, Monthly Reports and the 5 Years Progress Report. The AGM/EOGM calendar covers annual and extraordinary general meetings.

We found that some of these pages did not open at the web address we guessed. Our attempts at the Historical Data, Listing Status and AGM/EOGM calendar addresses returned a "Not Found" page. Use the menu links instead of typing an address, because the portal changes its paths.

A notice is a fact from the company, not advice

An announcement tells you what the company or body says. It does not tell you what the price will do. Read the notice itself, check its date and symbol, and compare it with what your broker or a friend tells you. A company's own notice beats a message you were forwarded.

Five steps to find a company announcement on the PSX data portal
  1. Open dps.psx.com.pk and choose Announcements from the menu.
  2. Pick Companies Announcements, or another type from the dropdown.
  3. Enter the company symbol and choose a month and year.
  4. Press Search and open the notice that matches your question.
  5. For dividends, repeat the search on the Payouts page.

Also confirm your broker is licensed before you act on any notice. See how to check a stockbroker's PSX licence. If you are new to shares, start with how to open an account and start investing on the PSX, and read the PSX dos and don'ts before you buy an IPO or a share. A company with foreign shareholders sends their dividends abroad through one designated bank, as explained in registering foreign shareholders' shares as repatriable.

Where do I check a dividend?

Use the Payouts tab on the company's page, or the Payouts page in the Announcements menu, and search the company symbol.

How we verified this

What we checked and where we read it.

Last checked 8 November 2026. The menu names, the five notice types, the search boxes and the 50 results per request come from the Announcements page of the PSX data portal and the portal's page script, read on 22 October 2026. The company page tabs and the UBL dividend notice come from the UBL company page on the PSX data portal, read on 8 November 2026. The issuer descriptions in the first table are ours. This is not investment advice.
