Shares of Tata Consultancy Services Ltd., Anant Raj Ltd., Piramal Pharma Ltd. and five other companies will be of interest on Monday as it marks the last session for investors to buy shares to qualify for receiving the dividend before the stock goes ex-record-date.

For a dividend, investors should note the record date that determines shareholder eligibility.

Under India's T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on the record date itself will not qualify for the dividend payment. Hence, if the record date of a dividend stock is July 16, then shares must be purchased by July 15.

The ex-dividend date, which typically coincides with the record date, marks when the share price adjusts to reflect the upcoming payout.
