A dividend is part of a company’s profit that it gives to its shareholders as a reward for owning its shares. Companies use dividends to keep and attract long-term investors. If a stock is trading ex-dividend, it means anyone buying it on or after that date will not get the announced dividend.

To receive the payout, you must buy the stock before the ex-dividend date. Next week, 30 well-known companies, such as RVNL, IRCTC, PFC, LIC, and GE Vernova T&D India, will go ex-dividend.

Conclusion: Next week, 30 stocks, including RVNL, IRCTC, PFC, LIC, and Coal India, will go ex-dividend. To get the announced dividend, you’ll need to buy these shares before their ex-dividend dates.

However, don’t buy a stock just because it offers a dividend. Take time to research each company, assess its financial strength, and make sure it aligns with your long-term investment goals. Dividends can be appealing, but successful investing requires careful thought and analysis.
