Dividend Deadline Nears for Indian Stocks Ahead of Record Date

Dividend Deadline Nears for Indian Stocks Ahead of Record Date
Dividend countdown begins! Last chance to buy today GMDC, Titagarh Rail, AGI Infra, others ahead of record date · livemint.com

Many Indian companies are preparing to pay dividends to eligible shareholders.

A dividend is money a company gives to people who own its shares.

Nearly 57 companies have set September 23 as their record date.

Investors generally need to buy the shares early enough for the trade to settle.

Because India uses a next-business-day settlement system, September 22 is described as the last effective buying day.

Gujarat Mineral Development Corporation has the largest dividend listed in the report, at Rs.

9.50 per share.

Other companies named include Talbros Engineering, Titagarh Rail Systems and AGI Infra.

The broader Indian stock market may be volatile, but one brokerage said the Nifty 50 chart looked positive.
