What Are Ex-Date and Record Date? Why Do They Matter?

Understanding the terminology around dividend eligibility is crucial for investors:

• Ex-Dividend Date (Ex-Date): The first trading day on which a buyer of shares does NOT qualify for the declared dividend. If you purchase shares on or after the ex-date, you will not receive that dividend.
• Record Date: The date on which the company examines its register of shareholders to determine who is eligible for the dividend. In India, under T+1 settlement, the record date and ex-date are typically the same day.
• Book Closure: A period when the company’s transfer books are closed, preventing transfer of shares. Most companies listed above have not announced a separate book closure period.

Key Takeaway: To receive the dividend, you must hold the shares in your demat account before the ex-date. Buying on the ex-date itself makes you ineligible.

Detailed Company Profiles: Dividend-Paying Stocks

1. Government of India – 727GS2026 (Interest Payment)

The 727GS2026 bond is a Government of India G-Sec (Government Security) with a face value of Rs 100 per unit. Unlike equity dividends, this is a fixed coupon interest payment on the sovereign debt instrument listed on NSE under the Debt segment (Series: GS). The ex-date and record date are both set for April 7, 2026.

Government Securities are considered the safest investment instruments in India, backed by the sovereign guarantee of the Government of India. Investors in G-Secs receive periodic interest (coupon) payments throughout the bond’s tenure. The 727GS2026 designation indicates this security matures in 2026, making this potentially a final or near-final coupon payment for bondholders.

2. Jash Engineering Limited (NSE: JASH) – Interim Dividend

Jash Engineering Limited, a small-cap industrial company, has declared an interim dividend of Re 0.60 per equity share against a face value of Rs 2. The ex-date and record date are both fixed at April 10, 2026. This represents a 30% payout on face value.

Jash Engineering specialises in manufacturing fluid control equipment including gates, valves, screens, and related products primarily for water and wastewater management infrastructure. Despite being a modest dividend in absolute terms, it reflects the company’s commitment to shareholder returns even from operational cash flows mid-year.

3. Sanofi India Limited (NSE: SANOFI) – Final Dividend of Rs 48

Sanofi India Limited has announced a final dividend of Rs 48 per equity share (face value Rs 10), representing a 480% payout. The record date and ex-date are both set for April 22, 2026. The Board recommended this dividend at its meeting held on February 25, 2026, subject to approval at the 70th Annual General Meeting (AGM) scheduled for April 29, 2026.

Total FY2025 Payout: Including the earlier interim dividend of Rs 75 per share declared in October 2025, the combined total payout for FY2025 (ended December 31, 2025) stands at Rs 123 per share — one of the highest in the Indian pharmaceutical sector.

Sanofi India is a subsidiary of France-based Sanofi SA, one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. It specialises in diabetes care, cardiovascular health, thrombosis, and CNS therapies. Its flagship brands in India include Lantus, Combiflam, and Allegra. The dividend will be paid on or before May 28, 2026, to shareholders registered as of the April 22 record date.

4. CIE Automotive India Limited (NSE: CIEINDIA) – Final Dividend of Rs 7

CIE Automotive India Limited has declared a final dividend of Rs 7 per equity share against a face value of Rs 10. Both the ex-date and record date are April 22, 2026. The 70% dividend payout reflects the company’s robust operational performance in the automotive components sector.

CIE Automotive India is a leading manufacturer of forgings and other auto components. It is a subsidiary of CIE Automotive S.A. of Spain. The company caters to both domestic and global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the passenger car, commercial vehicle, and two-wheeler segments. Its consistent dividend track record — including Rs 7 per share in April 2025 for FY2024 — demonstrates reliable shareholder value creation.

5. Schaeffler India Limited (NSE: SCHAEFFLER) – Final Dividend of Rs 35

Schaeffler India Limited has recommended a final dividend of Rs 35 per equity share (face value Rs 2), representing a 1,750% payout on face value.

Shareholder approval is to be sought at the 63rd AGM on April 30, 2026.

Schaeffler India (formerly FAG Bearings India) is a market leader in ball and rolling bearings and precision components for the automotive and industrial sectors. It is a subsidiary of the global Schaeffler Group. The company has demonstrated a strong upward trajectory in dividends: from Rs 24 in 2023, to Rs 26 in 2024, Rs 28 in 2025, and now Rs 35 for FY2025 — a 25% year-on-year increase.

6. Vesuvius India Limited (NSE: VESUVIUS) – Final Dividend of Rs 1.50

Vesuvius India Limited has declared a final dividend of Rs 1.50 per equity share against a face value of Rs 1, representing a 150% payout on face value. The ex-date and record date are both set for April 30, 2026.

Vesuvius India is the Indian subsidiary of Vesuvius PLC, a global leader in molten metal flow engineering and high-temperature ceramic solutions for the steel, foundry, and glass industries. While the absolute dividend amount appears modest, the 150% payout ratio on a Re 1 face value is a meaningful indicator of financial discipline.
