Companies like CDSL, IDBI Bank, IDFC, and Nestle India, among others, have declared dividends for eligible shareholders, with the record date set as July 16. Today is the last day to buy shares of these companies to qualify for the announced dividends.
Dividends are paid to shareholders whose names appear in the company's database on the record date. Post the implementation of the T+1 framework, the record date and ex-date are the same in most cases unless there is a market holiday after the ex-date.
Shareholders who buy the stock at least one day before the ex-date are eligible for dividends, as settlement occurs the next day. Those purchasing the stock on the ex-date are not eligible for dividends.
