Dividend Alert: Last Chance to Buy HDFC Bank and 15 Other Stocks
Investors looking to capture upcoming corporate payouts face a critical deadline today. A total of 16 stocks, including blue-chip giants like HDFC Bank and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, are set to turn ex-dividend on Friday, June 19, representing cumulative payouts worth nearly ₹248 per share.
Understanding the T+1 Settlement Deadline
Under SEBI’s current T+1 settlement cycle, timing is everything for dividend eligibility. To ensure that shares are credited to a demat account by the record date, investors must purchase the securities at least one trading day prior to the ex-date. Consequently, today serves as the final opportunity for retail and institutional investors to secure their eligibility for the scheduled dividend payments.
Top Dividend Performers: HDFC Bank and Tata Motors PV
Among the high-profile names, HDFC Bank stands out with a recommended final dividend of ₹13 per share (face value ₹1) for the financial year ending March 31, 2026. This brings the total dividend for FY26 to ₹15.50 per equity share. The banking major currently maintains a healthy dividend yield of 3.42%.
In the automotive sector, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles (TMPV) has recommended a final dividend of ₹3 per share for FY26. Eligible shareholders can expect these payments on or before July 14. The company has a consistent track record, having declared 20 dividends since July 2002.
