RVNL, Sun TV, Mahanagar Gas turn ex-dividend on August 18

Some companies share a little bit of their profits with the people who own their shares.

That money is called a dividend.

Three companies in India are giving dividends soon.

They are Rail Vikas Nigam, Sun TV Network, and Mahanagar Gas.

To get the money, people must own the shares by August 18.

That date is called the record date.

Rail Vikas Nigam wants to give 71 paise for each share.

Sun TV wants to give 5 rupees for each share.

Mahanagar Gas wants to give 18 rupees for each share.

Some of these payments still need to be approved by shareholders at meetings on August 25.
