This means that you will have to buy the company's shares before this date and hold them until the ex-dividend date. The ex-dividend date is one day before the record date.
How important is a dividend for investment?
Dividends are very important for investors who invest in a company for a long time. This provides them with a regular income and also benefits directly from the company's performance. Companies with a good track record and those that pay dividends from time to time are considered more reliable among investors.
Benefits can also be obtained from small companies
Companies like Avadh Sugar, Vishnu Chemicals, and Dhanshree Electronics come under the BSE Smallcap Index. This means that they are smaller than large companies, but their performance has been good, which is why they are able to pay dividends.
