In the present week, 39 companies including Infosys Ltd., ACC Ltd., and Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd. have upcoming record dates for dividend payments.
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.
For instance, if the record date of a dividend stock is June 9, then investors must purchase shares by June 8, 2026, to be eligible. The ex-dividend date, which comes before the record date, reflects when the share price adjusts to account for the upcoming payout.
The most significant interim dividend announced this week comes from Oseaspre Consultants Ltd. and Technojet Consultants, which is offering a substantial payout of Rs 87 per share with an ex-date of June 12.
Following closely is Tata Elxsi Ltd., which is distributing an interim dividend of Rs 75 per share with an ex-date of June 10.
Several other companies are offering notable payouts. Infosys Ltd. is offering Rs 25 per share, while Indian Bank is paying out Rs 18.25 per share. Other significant disbursements include:

Dividends are a way for companies to reward shareholders. It is the portion of profits that a company distributes to its shareholders and is essentially a return on the investment shareholders make in the company's equity.
Such payments are made through final, interim, and special dividends. Dividends are taxable in the hands of the shareholders, and companies are no longer required to pay the dividend distribution tax. The TDS on dividend income for resident individuals is 10% if the dividend amount exceeds Rs 5,000 in a financial year.
