3.) can a shareholder who have 1 share attend AGM?

4.) How long AGM takes place, i mean the time duration? & what they discuss? do shareholders who do not have knowledge just sit & observe?

1. A stock trades ex-dividend on or after the ex-dividend date (ex-date). At this point, the person who owns the security on the ex-dividend date will be awarded the payment, regardless of who currently holds the stock. After the ex-date has been declared, the stock will usually drop in price by the amount of the expected dividend.

Ex. Date of Announcement: - 01.Jun.2015
Dividend per Share: - Rs. 1.25 per share / Final Dividend
Financial Year: - 2014/2015
XD: - 11.Jun.2015
Payment: - 19.Jun.2015
Share Transfer Book Open

in this case, if you have SFIN shares on 10th june 2015, you are entitled to dividend.

2.A practice where buy and sell orders for the same stock are offset without recording the trade on the exchange, which is outlawed on most major stock exchanges. This also occurs when a broker executes both a buy and a sell for the same security from one client account to another where both accounts are managed by the same portfolio manager

A crossing will be entered by both parties specifying the security, client, contra broker ID and price.

The crossing is deemed to be entered when both parties have completed the entry. If the seller

does not have an adequate CDS balance the crossing will be purged from the book and will have to

be reentered.

Price determination mechanism

The crossings will execute at the entered price.

Amendments / Cancellations

Orders for crossings can be amended or cancelled by Brokers prior to execution.

Price constraints

A crossing shall not take place at a price below 5% of the closing price as defined in Rule 8.1.

No price cap will be enforced.

For Debt securities a crossing shall not take place at a price below 2% of the reference price.

Trading unit

To be crossed the parcel must be;

a) More than 5% of the issued quantity of the specific security OR

b) Greater than Rs. 20,000,000/‐

For debt securities Crossings are limited to trade transactions greater than Rs 10,000,000/‐.

Visibility

Orders placed on the crossing board will not be visible in the normal market data displays

and hence will not put price pressure on other trading. The trade will be displayed as an

execution.

Statistics

Crossings on Equity securities will not update the indices and closing price.

Clearing the Order Book

Crossings are not required to clear the order book

3. Yes

4. its depend on the AGM. 5Mn or 1Hr

Mr.beta a big thanks.. i was feeling wow for your long explanations

one more doubt Mr.beta
for example if i buy 1 share from say galadari hotel and go attend the AGM meeting i can have refreshments right. A refreshment (Tea or meals) may cost say around 1,500/-.
Then i share cost 50/- & having a meal at AGM for 1500/-. sound like a good right? what do you think on this??

attending AGMs will be good enough to eat and come!!!
