INFY Dividend Alert: Last Day to Buy for Rs 25/sh Payout

Infosys has set June 10 as the record date for its final dividend of Rs 25 per share. Given the T+1 settlement cycle, June 9 is the last trading day for investors to acquire Infosys shares and be eligible to receive this dividend.

This is a routine corporate action, but it creates a short-term trading opportunity for dividend-seeking investors. The stock price typically adjusts downwards by the dividend amount on the ex-dividend date, which is June 10 in this case. This can influence short-term trading volumes and price movements.

For Infosys (INFY), the immediate impact is a potential surge in buying interest today from investors aiming to capture the dividend. Post-June 9, the stock is likely to trade ex-dividend, meaning its price will typically open lower by approximately the dividend amount, which is Rs 25 per share.

Traders should monitor INFY's opening price on June 10 to observe the ex-dividend price adjustment. Beyond the dividend, focus on Infosys's broader business outlook, order book, and commentary on IT spending for long-term directional cues.
