A bunch of companies have announced corporate actions, including dividends and bonus issue, ahead of their respective record dates next week.
HCL Technologies Ltd., ABB India Ltd. and Tanla Platforms Ltd. are some of the companies set to issue dividends to their stakeholders. To be eligible for dividends, investors should take note of the record date, which determines shareholder eligibility.
Under India's T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on the record date itself will not qualify for the dividend payment. The ex-dividend date, which falls before the record date, marks when the share price adjusts to reflect the upcoming payout.
