Dividend, Stock Split, Bonus, Rights Issue: TCS, Tata Motors, Coforge and Others in Focus Ahead of Ex-Date

Companies like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Tata Motors, Coforge, and 4 other firms will be closely watched by investors as they are set to trade ex-date on June 4, 2025. These companies have recently announced major corporate actions, including dividends, bonus shares, stock splits, and rights issues, drawing considerable attention from the market.

It’s important to note that for all the companies mentioned, the record date and ex-date are the same—June 4, 2025.

Companies Declaring Final Dividends

4 companies have announced final dividends, which will be paid only to those who hold shares before June 4:

• Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) – ₹30 per share
• Tata Motors – ₹6 per share
• Inox India – ₹2 per share
• Seshasayee Paper and Boards – ₹2.5 per share

A final dividend is a payout made by a company to its shareholders at the end of its financial year. It is usually decided based on the full-year profits and approved by shareholders during the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

Coforge to Undergo Stock Split

Coforge, an Information Technology (IT) company, has declared a stock split. As per the announcement, every 1 share with a face value of ₹10 will be split into 5 shares of ₹2 each.

This means shareholders will have more shares, each with a lower face value, but the total investment value remains unchanged. The record date to determine shareholder eligibility for the stock split is June 4, 2025.

Bonus Issue by Shalibhadra Finance

Shalibhadra Finance has announced a bonus issue in the ratio of 3:1. This means that for every 1 share held, shareholders will receive 3 additional shares.

Rights Issue by Franklin Industries

Franklin Industries has come out with a rights issue involving 48.2 crore equity shares at a face value of ₹1 per share. The total size of the issue amounts to ₹48.2 crore.

A rights issue allows a company to raise capital by offering new shares to its existing shareholders, typically at a discounted rate. The offer is made in proportion to the number of shares already held, and only shareholders listed on the record date are eligible to apply.

What Is the Ex-Date and Why Does It Matter

The ex-date is the cut-off date to determine whether a shareholder is eligible for dividends, bonus shares, stock splits, or rights issues. If investors buy the stock on or after the ex-date, they will not be eligible for any of the benefits declared.

Conclusion

With several companies declaring dividends, announcing stock splits, bonus shares, and rights issues, June 4, 2025 is an important date for investors. Those who wish to benefit from these actions must ensure they purchase or hold the stocks before the ex-date.
