What will happen if I sell my stock holding before getting the bonus shares?

Record date is a cut-off date set by the company.

If you are the owner of the shares of the company on this cut-off date, then you are eligible to receive the bonus shares.

If you sell your holding after the cut-off date, you will still get the bonus shares.
