The week of December 22, 2025, promises to be active for corporate actions, with several companies announcing dividends,

bonus share issuances, and stock splits. Among those making moves are Canara Robeco, GRM Overseas, and Knowledge Marine

& Engineering Works.

For those unfamiliar, when a company's shares trade ex-dividend, the share price adjusts to reflect the forthcoming

dividend payment. Essentially, from the ex-dividend date onward, the shares no longer carry the value of that specific

upcoming payout.

A dividend distribution involves a company paying out a specific sum per share to all shareholders who were invested in

the company's stock before the payment's record date. To be eligible for a particular dividend, investors typically need

to own the shares up to 24 hours before this record date.

Beyond dividends, some firms will also be implementing other corporate actions, specifically bonus share issues and

stock splits, during the coming week.

**Ex-Dividend Stocks Next Week**

* Canara Robeco Asset Management Company Ltd: Interim dividend of ₹1.5 per share (December 22, 2025)

* Prakash Pipes Ltd: Interim dividend of Re 1 per share (December 24, 2025)

**Ex-Bonus Issue Stocks Next Week**

* GRM Overseas Ltd: Bonus issue at a ratio of 2:1 (December 24, 2025)

* Ram Ratna Wires Ltd: Bonus issue at a ratio of 1:1 (December 26, 2025)

Bonus share issuance represents a corporate action where current shareholders become eligible to receive additional

shares. Rather than simply increasing dividend payouts, companies sometimes opt to distribute extra shares to their

shareholders.

**Ex-Stock Split Stocks Next Week**

* Knowledge Marine & Engineering Works Ltd: Stock split from ₹10 to ₹5 (December 22, 2025)

* Nuvama Wealth Management Ltd: Stock split from ₹10 to ₹2 (December 26, 2025)

A stock split involves a company issuing more shares to existing shareholders, typically done to improve the stock's

liquidity. Companies will announce these splits using a specified ratio based on the number of shares currently held.

Common ratios include 2-for-1 (2:1) or 3-for-1 (3:1). For example, in a 2-for-1 split, a shareholder would receive two

shares for every one share they previously held.

**Other Corporate Actions to Note**

* Pulsar International Ltd: Rights Issue of Equity Shares (December 22, 2025)

* Digital Fibre Infrastructure Trust: Income Distribution (InvIT) (December 23, 2025)

* Intelligent Supply Chain Infrastructure Trust: Income Distribution (InvIT) (December 23, 2025)

As the week unfolds, investors should pay close attention to these corporate actions, as they can influence stock prices

and shareholder value.
