SAMP - Script dividend of 1for 19.22 - Equals 13.78 @ 266.00

Sampath Bank made their customary Dividend announcement that they do around February/March. This time they have made only a script dividend without giving a cash dividend as well. There is an advantage in this due to the fact that the full dividend will come to the shareholder without having to pay 14% as Withholding tax.
