Shares of Axis Bank Ltd., Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., Max Healthcare Institute Ltd., Biocon Ltd., and Tech Mahindra Ltd. will be of interest on Thursday as it marks the last session for investors to buy shares to qualify for receiving the interim dividend before the stock goes ex/record-date.
Investors eyeing dividend payouts must keep a close watch on these counters. To be eligible for dividends, 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 4, then shares must be purchased by July 3.
The ex-dividend date, which typically coincides with the record date, marks when the share price adjusts to reflect the upcoming payout.
