Corporate Actions Calendar: Never Miss a Bonus Share, Dividend or Split Again
Why Tracking Corporate Actions Matters
Missing the ex-date of a dividend means you don’t receive it, even if you sell the next day. Missing a rights issue means your entitlement lapses. Buying a stock the day after a bonus is announced but before ex-date gets you the bonus — buying after the ex-date does not. Staying informed is literally worth money.
Types of Corporate Actions to Track
| Corporate Action | Key Date to Watch | What Happens If You Miss |
|---|---|---|
| Cash Dividend | Ex-dividend date | Don’t buy before this = miss dividend |
| Bonus Issue | Ex-bonus date | Buy before = get bonus shares; after = don’t |
| Stock Split | Ex-split date | Price adjusts; no financial impact if miss |
| Rights Issue | Rights entitlement credit date | RE credited to demat — must track and act |
| Buyback (Tender) | Record date for eligibility | Must hold on record date to participate |
| AGM/EGM | Meeting date | Vote on resolutions if interested |
