Key dates and figures at a glance

Why these disclosures matter for investors

For shareholders, the record date of 17 August 2026 is central because it determines both dividend eligibility and voting rights. The e-voting window of 20-23 August 2026 gives investors a defined period to participate even if they do not attend the VC/OAVM meeting.

From a corporate actions perspective, the proposed final dividend of ₹1.50 per share, together with the total dividend of ₹6.05 per share for FY2025-26, is a key item requiring shareholder approval. Separately, the fund-raising proposal of up to ₹70000 crore through non-convertible bonds or debentures indicates a planned headroom for debt issuance, subject to approval.

Conclusion

HUDCO’s 56th AGM on 24 August 2026 will be held via VC/OAVM, with 17 August 2026 set as the record and cut-off date and remote e-voting running from 20 August to 23 August 2026. Shareholders will vote on adoption of FY2025-26 audited accounts, the proposed ₹1.50 final dividend, board and auditor-related resolutions, and a fund-raising proposal up to ₹70000 crore. The next confirmed step is the AGM itself, where the resolutions, including the final dividend, will be placed for shareholder approval.
