Dividend Deadline today! These 2 stocks go ex-date on April 8; check if you own them



Shares of Varun Beverages, and Gravity India are set to remain in the spotlight during today’s trading session following their announcements related to a dividend and a rights issue of equity shares, respectively. According to BSE data, Varun Beverages will trade ex-dividend tomorrow, April 8, 2026, while Gravity India will trade ex-date for its rights issue of equity shares.

 


Investors who wish to claim the benefit of these corporate actions must own the stocks of the respective companies on or before the ex-date. However, the eligibility of shareholders is determined based on the record date set by the companies.

 
 

Varun Beverages has informed the exchanges that its board has decided to reward shareholders with a final dividend of ₹0.50 per share for the financial year ended December 31, 2025.

 


“Recommendation of final dividend of ₹0.50 (Fifty Paisa only) per equity share of the nominal value of ₹2 each for the financial year ended December 31, 2025, subject to the approval of equity shareholders of the company on a record date to be fixed by the Board of Directors,” the company said in an exchange filing.

 


The company has fixed Wednesday, April 8, 2026, as the record date for the purpose of ascertaining the eligibility of equity shareholders entitled to receive the final dividend.

 

Gravity India has announced a rights issue of 6,90,14,950 fully paid-up equity shares of face value ₹10 each at ₹10 per share, aggregating ₹69,01,49,500. The issue is in the ratio of 23 equity shares for every three equity shares held by eligible shareholders, with a right to renounce. The board has fixed Wednesday, April 8, 2026, as the record date to determine shareholders eligible for the rights entitlement.

 

Besides these, Avax Apparels and Ornaments will also remain in focus today as the stock turns ex-bonus following the announcement of bonus equity shares in the ratio of 3:1 — that is, three bonus equity shares of face value ₹5 each for every one fully paid-up equity share of ₹5 each, ranking pari passu in all respects. The company has fixed April 7, 2026, as the record date to determine shareholders’ entitlement.

Global gold holdings merely 3% of 0tn in global financial assets: WGC

Global gold holdings merely 3% of $320tn in global financial assets: WGC


Despite being a large and liquid market, gold bullion held by investors is still only a small portion of global investable assets, suggests a World Gold Council report.  
The $9 trillion gold bullion held by individual and institutional investors in the form of bars, coins, gold exchange traded funds (ETFs) and over-the-counter (OTC) accounts for merely 3 per cent of the estimated $320 trillion invested across financial assets (equities, debt, alternative assets) globally, WGC estimates. Historically, this share was significantly higher at around 14 per cent about 40 years ago, it said. 
 
  
The total above ground stock of gold is large in both physical and financial terms: almost 220,000 tonnes of gold have been mined throughout history, WGC estimates, valued at nearly $31 trillion at the end of 2025.  
Gold holdings  
That said, gold holdings are not uniform across portfolios, the report suggests. WGC’s research across various segments suggests that up to 30 per cent investors may not have any allocation to gold – and among those investors who do hold gold, institutions in particular tend, on average, to be significantly under-allocated. 

  
“In contrast, our analysis shows that investors can benefit from a 5 per cent strategic allocation in a well-balanced portfolio, with a range between 2 per cent to 10 per cent depending on their investment objectives. For investors in some markets, such as India or Japan, the optimal allocations may be higher,” WGC said.  
At the end of 2025 central banks held around 38,670 tones gold, according to WGC’s estimates, worth nearly $5 trillion. By the third quarter of calendar year 2025 (Q3CY25), gold accounted for 26 per cent of total global allocated reserves, according to IMF COFER data, with only the US dollar holding a greater share. 

  
But there is a clear divergence between how central banks in the developed and emerging markets (EM) approached gold. In 2025, developed market central banks held, on average, 30 per cent of their total reserves in gold, the WGC report suggests.  
In comparison, their emerging market (EM) peers held just 15 per cent. “This compares with around 4 per cent in 2010, after which EM central bank demand for gold expanded rapidly,” WGC said.  
EM – dominated by China and India – represent around 50 per cent of annual global gold demand, according to WGC’s estimates, while the developed markets account for the remainder.
