Dividends and Bonus Issues This Week (Jan 19–23, 2026): ICICI Prudential, NLC India and More

Several dividend-paying stocks will remain in focus in the coming week as multiple companies are set to trade ex-dividend between January 19 and 23, 2026. In addition to dividends, investors will also track bonus issues and stock splits, making it a busy week for corporate actions on Dalal Street.

When a stock trades ex-dividend, its share price is adjusted to reflect the dividend payout. Investors who buy the stock on or after the ex-dividend date are not eligible for the upcoming dividend. To receive the dividend, shareholders must own the shares at least one day before the record date.

Stocks Trading Ex-Dividend Next Week

The following companies are scheduled to trade ex-dividend during the week:

Bonus Issue Scheduled This Week

Apart from dividends, one company has announced a bonus issue of shares.

A bonus issue allows shareholders to receive additional shares without any extra cost, based on the number of shares they already hold. The overall value of investment remains unchanged, but the number of shares increases.

Stock Split to Watch

One company is also set to undergo a stock split to improve liquidity.

In a stock split, the face value of shares is reduced, increasing the total number of shares held by investors.

Other Corporate Action

Cian Healthcare Ltd will see trading suspension on Wednesday, January 21, 2026, due to a resolution plan-related action.
