Dividend stocks: Shares of India's largest private sector lender, State Bank of India (SBI), Indian Energy Exchange, Foseco India, Godrej Consumer Products, and five other companies are likely to stay in focus in the upcoming trading week from Tuesday, May 13, 2025, to Friday, May 16, 2025, following their announcement of dividend rewards for shareholders. IFGL Refractories, R Systems International, Aptus Value Housing Finance India, Fabtech Technologies Cleanrooms, and Advanced Enzyme Technologies also feature on the list.
According to data available on the BSE, the shares of these companies will trade ex-dividend during the week as they have declared interim or final dividends, prompting investor attention around their respective ex-dates. The ex-dividend date is crucial for shareholders, as investors must own the stock before this date to be eligible for the declared dividend. The record date, typically the same day or the day after, is when the company finalises the list of eligible shareholders.
Among the nine companies going ex-dividend during the week, Foseco India leads the pack with the highest final dividend of ₹25 per share, with both its ex-date and record date scheduled for May 14, 2025. On the same day as Foseco India, R Systems International will also trade ex-dividend, rewarding its shareholders with an interim dividend of ₹6 per share.
Earlier in the week, on May 13, 2025, Godrej Consumer Products and IFGL Refractories will trade ex-dividend following their announcement of interim dividends of ₹5 per share and ₹6 per share, respectively.
