投资者应了解的股权登记日
对于印度投资者而言,区分除权日(ex-date)和股权登记日(record date)至关重要。若要获得上述任何股息、红股或回购权益,投资者必须在公司指定的股权登记日当天,在其证券账户(demat account)中持有相关股票。由于印度的结算流程遵循 T+1 周期,投资者通常需要在除息日(ex-dividend date)之前至少一个工作日购买股票,以确保在股权登记日时已列入公司的股东名册。
核心要点
- 高额股息: 投资者应关注 Supreme Industries (₹25)、Asian Paints (₹23) 和 HUL (₹22) 的高额每股派息。
- 资本重组: ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems 正在发行 5:1 的红股,而 Bajaj Auto 本周将进行规模为 563.3 亿卢比的回购。
- 资格要求: 若要从这些公司行为中受益,股东必须在各公司指定的股权登记日之前,在其证券账户(demat account)中持有相应的股票。
