Investors aiming to receive these dividends should ensure they purchase shares at least one trading day before the ex-dividend date. This is crucial because settlement in India follows the T+1 cycle, which means shares bought on the ex-date won't reflect in your account in time to qualify.
With many blue-chip and mid-cap companies declaring dividends this season, market watchers see it as an opportunity for investors to lock in steady returns.

I Asked ChatGPT To Give Me the ‘Cheat Code' for Making the Most of My Money: Here's What It Said

If managing money feels like trying to beat a boss level with no walkthrough, you're not alone. Many people work hard but still feel stuck in the same place financially. So the idea of a 'cheat code,' like having a simple, strategic way to make money work harder, feels tempting. Read Next: Explore More: GOBankingRates asked ChatGPT to outline the most effective habits and tools that can stretch, grow and protect income over time. The goal is not to get rich overnight, but to play smarter with what you earn. So this is the cheat code for making the most of your money, according to ChatGPT. Also see seven tricks to make the most of your bank accounts. Automate Everything You Can ChatGPT put automation at the top of the list. That means setting up automatic transfers into a high-yield savings account, scheduling bill payments and directing part of each paycheck to investments. Services like Wealthfront and Betterment help users auto-invest based on risk preferences. The same goes for investing apps like Fidelity and Vanguard, which let you schedule regular deposits into index funds. Using budgeting tools can help you track spending and catch leaks before they drain your account. 'Automating your money removes emotion and inconsistency from your finances. It's the closest thing to passive self-discipline,' ChatGPT explained. Check Out: Live Below Your Means, Aggressively Living below your means isn't about being cheap; it's about being strategic. ChatGPT suggested tracking every dollar, capping lifestyle creep and viewing minimalist living as a strength. The less you spend, the faster you build a surplus. To do so, it recommended learning how to budget. 'You don't need to track pennies to win at budgeting. What matters most is having a repeatable system,' ChatGPT said. It recommended two simple methods: The 50/30/20 rule: 50% for needs, 30% for wants, 20% for savings or debt Zero-based budgeting: Assign every dollar a job. Apps like YNAB and Goodbudget can help users stick to a plan without getting overwhelmed. Invest Early — Even With Small Amounts Compound interest is the real cheat code. ChatGPT explained that investing early, even small amounts, can grow into a large sum over time. Consistency is key. Put money into broad-market exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or index funds, use tax-advantaged accounts like a Roth IRA, and always reinvest dividends. The sooner you start, the more time your money has to multiply, and history shows this approach beats trying to time the market. Starting small is often better than waiting for the 'right' time. 'Time beats timing. The earlier you invest, the more compound interest works in your favor,' according to ChatGPT. Build an Emergency Buffer One overlooked cheat code is having money set aside for surprises. Surprises happen, and an emergency fund is your financial firewall. ChatGPT recommended saving three to six months' worth of expenses in a high-yield savings account. This cash cushion keeps you from dipping into investments or racking up debt when life throws a curveball. Having this safety net reduces stress and prevents financial setbacks from turning into disasters. Learn How To Maximize Credit, Without Debt Credit isn't just about borrowing. It affects interest rates, housing applications and even job offers. 'Treat your credit score like a tool, not a trap. Use it to access better terms, not unnecessary purchases,' ChatGPT said. That includes paying bills on time, keeping utilization under 30% and regularly reviewing your free credit reports. Strategic use of cash-back cards can also put money back into your pocket, if paid off monthly. Debt with high interest, like credit cards, can quietly eat away at your wealth. If you currently have debt, ChatGPT suggested using either the avalanche method (tackle the debt with the highest interest rate first) or the snowball method (pay off the smallest balances for quick wins). Refinancing or consolidating debt can also help if your credit score allows. Don't Just Save — Earn More Strategically Cutting expenses has limits. Earning more often delivers faster growth. ChatGPT highlighted a growing trend: 'Monetizing skills online, through freelancing, content creation, or digital products, is more accessible than ever.' Instead of chasing endless gigs, ChatGPT said to focus on building high-value skills — think coding, digital marketing or sales. With these skills, you can negotiate raises or land better jobs, which is often more sustainable than juggling multiple side hustles. Platforms like Fiverr, Upwork and Teachable let users build scalable side income, turning time or knowledge into long-term assets. It's not passive at first, but it can become hands-off with the right systems.

Why top NYC restaurants are bringing in famed chefs from around the world

Top New York City restaurants are increasingly turning to collaborations with renowned chefs from around the globe to boost business and stand out from high-end rivals, Side Dish has learned. The collabs, while not a new phenomenon, have taken on added importance as President Trump's tariffs create challenges for chefs to source some of their favorite ingredients. However, importing talent from all corners of the globe – which at popular Tribeca haunt l'abeille means bringing in chefs from England, France, Belgium, Japan, Hong Kong and Thailand – remains tax-free. 7 l'abeille in Tribeca is importing talent from all corners of the globe. Eric Vitale Photography 'Global residences help everyone grow and learn — from the guests to the staff. They keep the restaurant interesting,' said Howard Chang, co-owner of Kuma Hospitality Group's l'abeille with partners Rahul Saito and executive chef Mitsunobu Nagae. The dinners these top chefs serve up at ticketed events aren't cheap. At a recent, prix-fixe collab dinner at l'abeille, Nagae worked with London-based chef Chet Sharma, who studied physics at Oxford and now helms the standout Indian-themed restaurant BiBi in London's swanky Mayfair neighborhood. The meal cost $325, with an additional $295 for wine pairings. The exclusive events, however, often don't bring in more money than regular a la carte dinners, restaurateurs told Side Dish. That's because the higher prices are offset by the cost of flying in the foreign-based chefs, along with some of their team members, and putting them all up in hotels. 7 Chet Sharma, left, and Mitsunobu Nagae collaborated on a prix-fixe dinner.

Eric Vitale Photography The upside, they say, is that global collabs raise the restaurants' profiles, bring in new diners and offer educational benefits for staff.

Hannah Wyatt Last week, the pair offered a rare collaborative omakase where they presented their culinary visions through the use of local fish and other influences. 'We started the Japan series in 2019,' said Hannah Wyatt, Sushi Noz's operations manager. 'Our goal was to showcase top chefs from Japan through collaborative dinners with chef Noz, with a focus on sushi and kaiseki chefs at the top of their respective fields.' In Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the owners of Layla's began bringing in chefs during COVID and continue to have pop-ups for 'brand exposure.' 7 The dinners these top chefs serve up at ticketed events aren't cheap.

Eric Vitale Photography The most recent international collab involved chef Kyle Garry and chef Whyte Rushen of Whyte's in London, who is now on a 'worldwide' tour. 'We did it once, and it was really successful and fun and now it's something we try to do as often as we can,' Samuel Lynch, one of Layla's co-owners along with Stefano D'Orsogna and David Lacey, told Side Dish. The trend has even extended to the Hamptons, where Mavericks Montauk will welcome the crew from Michelin-starred Parisian restaurant Contraste on July 31. 7 The upside, they say, is that global collabs raise the restaurants' profiles, bring in new diners and offer educational benefits for staff. Interior of l'abeille, above. Eric Vitale Photography The collaboration was made possible by the deep-rooted friendship between Mavericks' pastry chef Remy Ertaud and Contraste's Louis De Vicari. We hear … that celeb chef Scott Conant is opening a posh new Italian restaurant, Leola, in the Bahamas at Baha Mar this fall. Leola will be on the casino level of Grand Hyatt Baha Mar, joining hotspots including Jon Batiste's Jazz Club, Marcus Samuelsson's Marcus at Baha Mar Fish + Chop House, Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud, and Dario Cecchini's Carna. The 8,800 square foot space comes with 106 seats in the main dining room and 130 seats outside. 'Bringing Leola to life at Baha Mar is something I've dreamed about for a long time,' Conant said. 'I've always been inspired by the beauty and spirit of the Bahamas, and it felt like the perfect place to create a restaurant that's both personal and inviting. With Leola, we're blending the kind of food and hospitality I love—warm, soulful, and rooted in connection.' Conant will also participate in the Fourth Annual Bahamas Culinary & Arts Festival, which runs from Oct. 22-26.
