LIC, Asian Paints, and HUL: 35 Stocks Set for Dividends and Bonuses

A significant wave of corporate actions is hitting the Indian equity markets this week, with approximately 35 companies scheduled to turn ex-record date. From high-value dividends to bonus issues and massive buybacks, investors must ensure their holdings are in their demat accounts by the specific record dates to qualify for these benefits.

Tuesday's Dividend Heavyweights: Asian Paints and HUL Lead

Tuesday, June 23, marks a busy day for dividend seekers, featuring several blue-chip companies. Asian Paints stands out with the highest dividend payout among the early week group, offering a final dividend of ₹23 per share. Following closely is consumer goods giant Hindustan Unilever (HUL), which will distribute ₹22 per share.

Other notable dividend announcements for Tuesday include:

  • Tata Power Company: ₹2.5 per share
  • Thyrocare Technologies: ₹7 per share
  • The Indian Hotels Company: ₹3.25 per share
  • Anand Rathi Share & Stock Brokers & Dalmia Bharat: ₹5 per share each

Mid-Week Activity: Bonus Issues and Bajaj Auto Buyback

Wednesday, June 24, shifts the focus from pure cash payouts to capital restructuring and buybacks. ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems India has fixed this date for its 5:1 bonus issue, which will increase the number of shares held by eligible investors.

Crucially, Wednesday is also the record date to determine eligibility for Bajaj Auto’s massive ₹5,633 crore share buyback program. Additionally, Wheels India and Shankar Buildpro will turn ex-dividend, with payouts of ₹9.14 and ₹5 per share, respectively.

Thursday's Big Movers: LIC and Supreme Industries

The momentum continues on Thursday, June 25, with several large-cap entities hitting their record dates. Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) is set to pay a final dividend of ₹10 per share, while IndusInd Bank will distribute ₹1.5 per share.

The standout performer for Thursday in terms of per-share value is Supreme Industries, which will pay a substantial final dividend of ₹25 per share. Other significant payouts scheduled for Thursday include:

  • Care Ratings: ₹14 per share
  • Nippon Life India AMC: ₹12.5 per share

  • Allied Blenders and Distillers: ₹5.4 per share

投資家にとっての権利確定日の理解

インドの投資家にとって、権利落ち日と権利確定日を区別することは極めて重要です。記載されている配当、ボーナス株、または自社株買いの対象となるには、投資家は会社の指定する権利確定日時点で、デマット口座（demat account）にて株式を保有している必要があります。インドの決済プロセスはT+1サイクルに従っているため、権利確定日までに株主名簿に記載されるよう、一般的に配当落ち日の少なくとも1営業日前までに株式を購入しておく必要があります。

主なポイント

  • 高額配当: Supreme Industries (₹25)、Asian Paints (₹23)、HUL (₹22) による高い1株あたりの配当額に注目してください。
  • 資本再構成: ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systemsは5:1のボーナス株を発行し、Bajaj Autoは今週、5,633クロール・ルピー規模の自社株買いを実施します。
  • 受給要件: これらのコーポレートアクションの恩恵を受けるには、株主は各社で指定された特定の権利確定日までに、それぞれの株式をデマット口座で保有している必要があります。
