Indian equity markets have been highly volatile amid tensions in West Asia. In the last truncated week, the Nifty ended 0.50 per cent lower, while the Sensex fell by 264 points. According to Amol Athawale, VP Technical Research, Kotak Securities, the market is still holding a lower top formation on the daily charts, which is largely negative. Amid this volatility, there is an opportunity for investors seeking additional profit, as a stock will soon trade ex-date for an interim dividend. The company under concern here is Varun Beverages, PepsiCo’s largest franchise bottler. The company has also set a record date to determine shareholders’ eligibility for this corporate action. However, investors must buy the stock before the ex-date, which is generally 1-2 days before the record date, to be eligible for a corporate action. While the ex-date is the date on which the stock traded without dividend rights, the record date is the date on which the company checks its records for stockholders.
