When investinv thousands/lakhs in stocks , why we should care about few rupees per stock dividend?

Anyway if you have Growth mutual fund, your dividends will be reinvested.

Let me know why dividend is important to you, wanted to check how am I missing out by not caring for dividends?

I'll specify my use case, I'm investing in shares on SIP basis and I'm expecting a "good" amount of dividend every year and I wanted to have a record where I can see them all.

Axio - I just tag it as investment credit

Alternatively can add #tags too to filter down the lane (if needed)

Check AIS in incometax site. It lists all dividents received in that FY, but probably with some delay in sync (never checked how long exactly)

Just use one Bank account specially for dividend. Don’t use its saving account for anything else (can use FD). That way, at the end of year, just get the statement of entire year.
