Companies listed in NEPSE have declared the dividend (both cash and bonus) for the fiscal year 2078/79. Proposed Dividend is the dividends that are distributed among the shareholders of the company during a financial year and will be paid in the Next Year. Hence, the dividends of FY-78/79 are distributed in this FY-79/80.
Investors do not just earn from the rise in the share price of their portfolio stocks. They also earn from the dividend and bonuses announced by the company from time to time. Hence, it becomes important for secondary market enthusiasts to know the names of stocks that are going to pay dividends in near future.
Note for Beginners: You can buy the shares of a company after it has proposed its dividend and still be eligible to get the dividend. In other words, you do not have to invest in the company for one whole fiscal year, which is a misconception among amateur investors.
The book closure date is simply the date on which the company closes its books for the dividend. Investors can still buy the shares after that date but they won’t get the dividend.
To get the dividend of the company, you must buy the shares before the book closure date and you must not sell those shares till the book closure date. For example, investors can buy the shares of a company on the last day before its book closure date and still be entitled to the dividend. The investor remains eligible even if they sell the shares at the book closure date.
