Record dates: TCS Rs 12 and Vedanta Rs 5 on Wed 14 Oct; Anand Rathi Wealth Rs 4 on Thu 15 Oct. TCS pays 30 Oct. Yields on Friday close (my calculation): TCS 0.55%, Vedanta 1.90%, Anand Rathi 0.20%. Buy before the ex-date.
Quick Answer
Dividend record date stocks this week include TCS and Vedanta, both with a record date of Wednesday 14 October, and Anand Rathi Wealth with a record date of Thursday 15 October. TCS declared a second interim dividend of Rs 12 per share payable on 30 October, Vedanta a first interim dividend of Rs 5 per share worth about Rs 1,955 crore, and Anand Rathi Wealth an interim dividend of Rs 4 per share. On Friday closing prices the yields are about 0.55%, 1.90% and 0.20% (my calculation), and under T+1 settlement the ex-date is usually the same day as the record date, so you generally need to own the shares by the close of 13 October for TCS and Vedanta and 14 October for Anand Rathi Wealth. Payment dates for Vedanta and Anand Rathi Wealth were not confirmed in the sources, so check the exchange notices before you buy.
Dividend record date stocks draw attention every quarter because the dividend goes only to investors whose names are on the company’s books on the record date. This week, three well-known names have dates close together, and a missed deadline means a missed payout.
This article lists the dividend record date stocks for the week with the amount, dates and payment details, explains the record date and ex-date rule, shows the yield, covers tax and other corporate actions, and lists the mistakes to avoid.

Dividend Record Date Stocks: Record Date, Ex-Date and Payment Date Rule
| Term | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Record date | The date the company checks who is on its shareholder register | Be a shareholder as of this date |
| Ex-date | The first day the shares trade without the dividend; under T+1 settlement it is usually the same day as the record date | Buy before this day; confirm it on the NSE notice |
| Payment date | The day the dividend is credited to the linked bank account | Keep your bank and demat details updated |
The ex-date was not stated in the sources for these three dividend record date stocks. Because the exchanges currently use T+1 settlement, buying on the record date itself is generally too late, so plan to buy at least one trading day earlier.

How to Qualify for Dividend Record Date Stocks: Steps
- Buy the shares in your demat account before the ex-date: by the close of 13 October for TCS and Vedanta, and 14 October for Anand Rathi Wealth, if the ex-date equals the record date.
- Hold the shares through the ex-date. You can sell on or after the ex-date and still receive the dividend.
- Confirm the ex-date and record date on the NSE or BSE corporate actions page.
- Check that your bank account is linked to your demat account for the credit.
- Plan for the share price to adjust on the ex-date by roughly the dividend amount.
These steps apply to all dividend record date stocks, not only these three.
TCS Among Dividend Record Date Stocks: Rs 12 Per Share
TCS declared a second interim dividend of Rs 12 per share with its Q2 FY27 results. The record date is Wednesday 14 October and the payment date is Friday 30 October. TCS closed at Rs 2,163 on Friday, up 4.23%, with a market capitalisation of about Rs 7,82,592 crore, but the stock is down about 29% over one year.
Among dividend record date stocks, TCS at Rs 2,163 with a Rs 12 dividend gives a yield of about 0.55% (my calculation). A holder of 100 shares would receive Rs 1,200 before tax.
Vedanta Among Dividend Record Date Stocks: Rs 5 Per Share
Vedanta’s board approved a first interim dividend of Rs 5 per share for FY27 on 8 October, a total payout of nearly Rs 1,955 crore. The record date is 14 October. The stock closed at Rs 263.50 on Friday, up 4.11%, and is up about 51% over one year. The payment date was not stated in the sources.
Of all dividend record date stocks this week, Vedanta at Rs 263.50 gives a yield of about 1.90% (my calculation). A holder of 100 shares would receive Rs 500 before tax.
Anand Rathi Wealth Among Dividend Record Date Stocks: Rs 4 Per Share
Anand Rathi Wealth set an interim dividend of Rs 4 per share, 80% of the Rs 5 face value, with a record date of Thursday 15 October. The stock closed at Rs 2,038.70 on Friday, down 4.68%, and is up about 38% over one year and 31.75% in 2026.
Among dividend record date stocks this week, Anand Rathi Wealth at Rs 2,038.70 gives a yield of about 0.20% (my calculation), and 100 shares would receive Rs 400 before tax. Its previous interim dividend was Rs 6 per share with a record date of 17 October 2025, so this one is lower, per Multibagg. Payment was reported as 30 days from the announcement and not as a fixed date.
Dividend Record Date Stocks: Yield and Payout Comparison
| Company | Dividend | Friday close | Yield (my calculation) | Payout on 100 shares |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TCS | Rs 12 | Rs 2,163 | About 0.55% | Rs 1,200 |
| Vedanta | Rs 5 | Rs 263.50 | About 1.90% | Rs 500 |
| Anand Rathi Wealth | Rs 4 | Rs 2,038.70 | About 0.20% | Rs 400 |
Yield is the dividend divided by the share price for one payout, so it is not an annual figure. Among these dividend record date stocks, Vedanta gives the highest yield on this payout.
Other Corporate Actions Beside Dividend Record Date Stocks
| Company | Action | Key dates |
|---|---|---|
| Ola Electric Mobility | Rights issue of 37.03 crore partly paid-up shares at Rs 27 each, ratio 2 for every 25 held | Record date 13 October; issue opens 22 October and closes 30 October |
| Bansal Wire Industries | Stock split of one Rs 5 share into five Re 1 shares, subject to shareholder approval | Record date 16 October |
Upstox, citing NSE data, counts TCS, Vedanta, Ola Electric and Bansal Wire as the corporate actions of the week, and other reports add Anand Rathi Wealth to the dividend list.
Tax on Dividend Record Date Stocks
- Dividends from dividend record date stocks are taxed in your hands at your income tax slab rate.
- Companies may deduct TDS at 10% for resident individuals when dividends from one company exceed a yearly threshold, and you can claim credit while filing your return.
- Check the current threshold and rules on the income tax website or with a tax professional.
Mistakes to Avoid With Dividend Record Date Stocks
Buying dividend record date stocks on the record date: Under T+1 settlement this is usually too late.
Chasing yield: A 0.2% to 1.9% payout is small next to a normal day’s price move, so the stock matters more than the dividend.
Ignoring the price drop: The share price adjusts on the ex-date, so the dividend is not free money.
Trusting one source: Dates can change, and one report showed an earlier Anand Rathi Wealth record date of 14 October before it moved to 15 October.
Forgetting tax: The dividend is taxable income.
What to Watch Next
- The NSE and BSE notices for the ex-dates and payment dates.
- Vedanta’s and Anand Rathi Wealth’s payment dates, which are missing for these dividend record date stocks.
- Price moves on the ex-date.
