Dividends are a way for companies to distribute a portion of their earnings to shareholders. This distribution typically comes in the form of cash or additional shares, known as stock dividends.
Dividends are often paid out by companies that have stable earnings and are seeking to reward their investors for their continued support. The dividend payout serves as an incentive for investors to hold on to their shares, as it provides a steady stream of income in addition to any potential capital appreciation.
The dividend percentages mentioned reflect the value shareholders will receive relative to the nominal value or face value of the shares. For instance, a dividend of 600% means that for every share, a shareholder will receive Rs. 6, which is 600% of the nominal face value of the share.
These dividend announcements are part of the companies' efforts to reward their investors for holding on to their shares. Investors are advised to keep track of the record dates, as they are essential for ensuring eligibility for the dividend payouts.

Deadline for property tax settlement scheme extended to Aug 15
Ludhiana: The local bodies department has extended the deadline for its one-time property tax settlement scheme to August 15, offering relief to defaulters who missed the original cut-off date of July 31. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The extension comes after a surge in last-minute payments at civic body's suvidha centres across Ludhiana. Under the scheme, launched on May 15, property owners with pending dues from 2013-14 onwards were given a chance to clear their backlog without paying any interest or penalty. Officials said that initial response was slow, but picked up momentum in July. So far, the department has collected Rs 15 crore under the scheme, contributing to Rs 40 crore property tax revenue for the current fiscal year. As per the original policy, dues paid between August 1 and October 31 would attract a 50% waiver on interest and penalties. Now that the deadline has been extended, full waiver benefits will continue till August 15, giving taxpayers a few more days to settle their accounts. MC superintendent Vivek Verma confirmed the extension and urged residents to take advantage of the scheme. "This is a golden opportunity for defaulters to clear their dues without additional financial burden," he said. While the extension benefits taxpayers, it has sparked concern among MC employees, who have been working overtime, including weekends and public holidays, to manage the rush. With Raksha Bandhan falling on Saturday, staff members are considering requesting the MC commissioner to keep suvidha centres closed on holidays. One employee noted that the pressure would continue even after the scheme ended, as the civic body would shift focus to collecting current dues. Taxpayers are eligible for a 10% rebate on current dues until September 30, which means that offices may remain open on weekends for months to come. The department has appealed to residents to cooperate and complete their payments early to avoid last-minute congestion. MSID:: 123043253 413 |

Street vendor push: Loan hike, credit cards okayed
NEW DELHI: Govt has approved higher subsidised loans for street vendors under the second phase of PM SVANidhi scheme and expanded its coverage by bringing around 50 lakh more beneficiaries under its ambit. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now TOI has learnt that the proposal to enable around 11 beneficiaries who have paid the first two tranches of subsidised loans to get UPI-linked credit cards with a limit of Rs 30,000 was also approved on Thursday. Sources said that under the revamped scheme, the beneficiaries will get subsidised loans of Rs 15,000 and Rs 25,000 in the first two terms, up from the earlier disbursement of Rs 10,000 and Rs 20,000 respectively. The amount for the third-term loan remains unchanged at Rs 50,000. Beneficiaries availing loans are eligible to get an interest subsidy of 7%. Officials said the credit card facility will help street vendors who by now have a better credit rating to have access to more rolling capital for their business and this will create more financial confidence in them. The norms of repayment will be laid down by the banks. As per the housing and urban affairs ministry, so far a little over 68 lakh street vendors have availed the first-term loan of Rs 10,000 and nearly 38.4 lakh have repaid.
