Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), the Tata Group’s IT company, has made an important announcement for investors who earn through dividends.
The company has declared its third interim dividend along with a special dividend, aiming to share profits with its shareholders.
TCS has announced a ₹11 per share third interim dividend and a ₹46 per share special dividend.
This means eligible shareholders will receive a total dividend of ₹57 per share. Today is the last opportunity for investors to become eligible for these dividends.
Record Date and Share Purchase Deadline
TCS has fixed January 17, 2026, as the record date for dividend eligibility. Only those investors whose names appear in the company’s shareholder records on this date will receive the dividend.
Normally, investors can buy shares up to one day before the record date.
However, due to the Maharashtra Municipal Corporation elections, the stock market will remain closed on January 15. Because of this, investors must purchase TCS shares by January 14, 2026, to qualify for the dividend.
