FAQ
Q1: What is the technical operational difference between an Ex-Date and a Record Date?
The Ex-Date is the day a stock begins trading without its upcoming dividend or bonus value; an investor must buy shares before this date to qualify for the payout. The Record Date is the cut-off day set by the company to scan its official ledger and verify which shareholders are listed as eligible owners.
Q2: How do the massive stock bonus issues from Kotyark Industries and ZF Commercial Vehicles affect investors?
Bonus issues award additional free shares to existing investors based on a set ratio (e.g., Kotyark’s 10:1 ratio means 10 new shares are issued for every 1 share owned). While your total share count increases instantly, the per-share stock market price drops proportionally on the ex-date, keeping your overall investment value the same.
Q3: Can a retail investor participate in the ₹5,633 crore Bajaj Auto buyback program this week?
Yes, provided you held Bajaj Auto shares in your demat account prior to the ex-date. Your eligibility to tender shares in the corporate buyback will be determined based on the official shareholding positions recorded on the June 24, 2026 cut-off date.
