Yamini Investments Company has set the record date for Tuesday, May 13, 2025, to determine the shareholders eligible for the rights issue.
The ex-date is when a stock begins trading without the entitlement to dividends or rights issues. Thus, to qualify for these corporate actions, investors need to own the stock before the ex-date. Companies, however, declare the beneficiaries of dividends and rights issues based on the list of shareholders recorded by the end of the record date.
