According to the latest data from the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), a significant number of prominent Indian companies are poised to trade ex-dividend in the upcoming week, offering potential returns to eligible shareholders. This corporate action involves an adjustment in the stock price to reflect the forthcoming dividend payout, meaning the share price will no longer include the value of the next dividend payment from the specified date.
Understanding the Ex-Dividend Mechanism
A dividend issue occurs when a company decides to distribute a portion of its profits to shareholders on a per-share basis. To be eligible for this payment, investors must hold the company's stock before a predetermined 'Record Date.' Notably, eligibility typically extends up to 24 hours prior to this record date, as shares begin trading ex-dividend. This adjustment ensures that new buyers are not entitled to the declared dividend, maintaining fairness in the market.
