Bonus issues & dividends: Wipro, UltraTech Cement among more than 110 stocks turning ex-date this week. Do you own?
Economic Times 14 hrs ago·26 Jul 2026, 4:13 am
Over 110 companies, including Wipro, UltraTech Cement, and Britannia, have announced corporate actions this week. Investors need to hold shares before the record date to qualify for these payouts. This week is particularly active, with several large and mid-cap firms distributing dividends or issuing bonus shares.
For shareholders, this is a key period to check their portfolios. Receiving a dividend or bonus shares can provide an immediate return on investment. However, the stock price often adjusts after the ex-date, which can affect the total value of holdings. It is important to understand the difference between the record date and the ex-date to ensure you do not miss out on entitlements.
Investors should review the specific dates for each company. Missing the record date means you will not receive the payout, even if you own the stock afterward. Watch for announcements regarding future corporate actions and the potential impact on stock prices. This information helps in making informed decisions about holding or selling shares.
