There were a total of five stocks that turned ex-dividend on February 26. This was also their record date to determine eligible shareholders for the dividend payout which will likely happen soon.
According to Nirmal Bang, the share market is a place where every investor dreams of accumulating higher returns and booking massive profits. Every investor look towards gaining from the share value appreciation as it's their primary motto. However, that's not the only way to earn money and book profits in the stock market. Investing in dividend stocks is found out to be a good and easy way to reap a steady and consistent source of income.

Further, Nirmal's report said, the companies that consistently distribute profits as dividends to their shareholders and have a tremendous track record are known as dividend stocks. These types of companies have a strong foothold and have a solid presence in the industry. Since they are well established and already achieved at its maturity peak, the stocks of these companies have less growth potential than other growing stocks in the market. When it comes to talking about dividend stocks, there are two major sub-categories: Dividend growth stocks and High dividend stocks.
In Nirmal's view, Dividend growth stocks are those stocks that have a larger potential increase for future dividend rates. On the other hand, high dividend stocks are those stocks that may or may not increase the future dividend rate since they're paying out a high rate of dividends to shareholders.
The stocks which turned ex-dividend on February 26 are:
1. Finotex Chemical
2. Gateway Distriparks
3. Natco Pharma
4. Suprajit Engineering
5. Vibrant Global Capital
