27 November 2013 there is always a record date for dividend if you are holding shares on the record date, then you will be eligible for dividend otherwise not eligible.

27 November 2013 for example, a compnay fixed record date 27/11/2013 for dividend, then any one who holds the shares on 27/11/2013 is eligible for dividend

if a person sells the share on 26/11 or who purchase shares on 27/11 is not eligible for dividend
