Eleven companies are set to trade ex-date from May 11 to May 15, 2026, offering investors a comprehensive range of shareholder rewards including bonus issues, stock splits, and dividends. According to reports from Goodreturns, these corporate actions span across financial, consumer, pharmaceutical, and industrial sectors, with the ex-date serving as a critical milestone that determines investor eligibility for these benefits. Investors must purchase shares before the ex-date to qualify for announced corporate actions, while those buying on or after the ex-date will not receive the corresponding benefits.
On May 11, 2026, two companies will trade ex-date for dividend distributions. Manappuram Finance will turn ex-date for its fourth interim dividend of ₹0.50 per share, while PAE Limited will trade ex-date for a final dividend of ₹0.20 per share. As reported by Goodreturns, these dividend announcements mark the beginning of the week's corporate action schedule, with both companies offering significant payouts to shareholders.
May 12, 2026 will feature two major corporate actions on the same day. Aptus Pharma is scheduled to trade ex-date for a 3:2 bonus issue, meaning shareholders will receive three additional shares for every two shares held. Simultaneously, Godrej Consumer Products will turn ex-date for an interim dividend of ₹5 per share, making it one of the key large-cap stocks to watch during the week. According to Goodreturns, this combination of bonus issue and dividend announcement on Tuesday creates significant investor interest in these consumer and pharmaceutical counters.
May 15, 2026 will be the most active day with seven companies turning ex-date simultaneously. NRB Bearings will trade ex-date for its third interim dividend of ₹2.25 per share, while Anand Rathi Wealth will go ex-date for a final dividend of ₹7 per share. Aptus Value Housing Finance India is scheduled to turn ex-date for a second interim dividend of ₹2.50 per share. Among the major names, Indian Energy Exchange (IEX) will trade ex-date for a final dividend of ₹2 per share, while Kennametal India has announced an interim dividend of ₹40 per share, representing one of the highest per-share payouts in the list.
Several companies are offering unique corporate actions during this period. Biogen Pharmachem Industries will trade ex-date for a 1:6 bonus issue, while Dev Labtech Venture will attract investor attention as it turns ex-date for both a 1:1 bonus issue and a 1:2 stock split. According to Goodreturns, these special combinations of bonus issues and stock splits provide additional value to shareholders beyond traditional dividend distributions, making these companies particularly noteworthy for investors tracking shareholder rewards.
