how do the profits of shares which are sold in a share market is distributed?

Answer 1

I think u r asking about the profits of Companies being traded in the Share Market.
Any profitable Company will declare a "Dividend" in percentage every year. This dividend is the share of your profit in the company. To be eligible to receive the dividend, you should have your shares registered in your name on or before the "Record Date" set by the Company.

Answer 2

I assume you mean corporate profits to shareholders. A company declares a dividend that will be payable on a certain date. The dividend is paid to those individuals who are the holder of record of the shares on a certain date that comes before the payment date. Any shares traded between the record date and the date of payment trade ex-dividend or without the dividend.
