How to qualify for Crown Paints dividends
- Own the shares before the ex-dividend date. If you buy on or after that date, the seller gets the dividend. Track upcoming dates in our NSE dividend calendar.
- Hold them in your own CDS account through a licensed stockbroker; see how to buy shares on the NSE. Keep your bank or M-Pesa details up to date with the share registrar so payments are not returned.
- Claim anything missing. Unpaid dividends are eventually transferred to the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority; see how to check and claim unclaimed dividends.
