Abstract :
Observing the stock price movement is an area of research that attracted the attention of various academicians and scholars. Perhaps no other area of finance has been subject to so much empirical investigation during the last four decades as the behavior of stock prices. The present study attempts to contribute positively to the understanding of the behavior of Indian share prices in relation to the dividend announcements. Dividend announcements usually are considered as the positive signal to the shareholders and its positive impact on the share prices is also expected. A standard event study methodology is adopted in the paper to examine the price reactions of 30 listed companies surrounding 70 days of the announcement dates.
