5 ASX dividend stocks to buy with $25,000 in March

The Australian share market is home to a large number of companies that reward shareholders with reliable dividends.

For investors with $25,000 ready to invest this month, there are plenty of income-focused opportunities to consider across a range of sectors. From infrastructure and telecommunications to retail and intellectual property, several ASX dividend stocks are currently offering attractive yields.

Here are five dividend stocks that could be worth considering in March.

APA Group (ASX: APA)

The first ASX dividend stock to consider is APA Group.

APA owns and operates one of Australia’s largest energy infrastructure networks. Its assets include gas pipelines, storage facilities, and electricity transmission infrastructure that supply energy across the country.

These assets typically operate under long-term contracts, which helps provide the company with predictable cash flows. This reliability has allowed APA to build a long track record of paying dividends to shareholders.

The company is guiding to a dividend of 58 cents per share in FY 2026, which equates to a dividend yield of around 6.3% at current levels.

Flight Centre Travel Group Ltd (ASX: FLT)

Another ASX dividend stock that could be worth a look is Flight Centre.

This travel company experienced a difficult period during the pandemic but has staged a strong recovery as global travel demand returned. As airlines restore capacity and holidaymakers return to international destinations, Flight Centre’s business has been rebuilding momentum.

With trading conditions improving and profitability recovering, the company has made bolt-on acquisitions and resumed returning capital to shareholders.

If the travel recovery continues in the years ahead, Flight Centre could provide investors with both income and growth potential.

For now, a 4.1% dividend yield is forecast in FY 2026.

IPH Ltd (ASX: IPH)

IPH is another ASX dividend stock that may appeal to income investors.

The company provides intellectual property services, helping businesses protect and manage patents, trademarks, and other rights across multiple jurisdictions.

Demand for intellectual property services tends to remain relatively resilient because companies continue to innovate regardless of economic cycles. IPH also benefits from operating across several major Asian markets.

Its consistent cash generation has supported a reliable dividend stream in recent years. This is expected to continue in FY 2026, with analysts forecasting a massive 10% dividend yield.

Telstra Group Ltd (ASX: TLS)

Australia’s largest telecommunications company could also be worth considering.

Telstra generates recurring revenue from mobile, broadband, and enterprise communication services. Because connectivity has become an essential service for households and businesses, demand tends to remain relatively steady even during economic downturns.

Telstra has also been improving its earnings outlook through cost reductions and network investments. These initiatives have helped underpin its dividend payments.

The company is expected to pay fully franked dividends of around 20 cents per share in FY 2026. This represents a 3.9% dividend yield.

Transurban Group (ASX: TCL)

A final ASX dividend stock to consider is Transurban.

Transurban is the toll road operator behind major roads such as CityLink in Melbourne and WestConnex in Sydney. These infrastructure assets generate revenue from daily traffic volumes across Australia and North America.

Toll roads typically benefit from long concession agreements and inflation-linked toll increases, which can support steady cash flows over time.

Transurban is currently guiding to a distribution of approximately 69 cents per share in FY 2026, which equates to an attractive 4.9% dividend yield at current levels.
