Indian Oil AGM 2026: e-voting dates, Rs 1.25 dividend

AGM scheduled for August 31 via VC/OAVM

Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOC) has scheduled its 67th Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Monday, August 31, 2026, at 10:30 am IST. The meeting will be held through Video Conferencing (VC) or Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM). The company said the format follows circulars issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, allowing shareholders to attend and vote without being physically present.

The AGM covers the financial year 2025-26 and will be treated as being conducted at the company’s registered office for statutory purposes. For shareholders, the key practical change is that participation, voting, and access to documents will be routed through digital channels.

How shareholders will receive the annual report and notice

IOC said its Integrated Annual Report for 2025-26, which includes the AGM notice, financial statements, directors’ report, and auditors’ report, will be circulated electronically. Members who have registered their email addresses will receive the documents by email. Those who have not registered their email addresses will receive a letter that contains a web link to access the documents.

This distribution approach is aligned with the AGM being conducted on VC/OAVM, where shareholders typically rely on electronic access for meeting materials and resolution details.

Remote e-voting window: August 27 to August 30

The company has provided a remote e-voting facility for all resolutions mentioned in the AGM notice. The remote e-voting period begins at 9:00 am IST on Thursday, August 27, 2026 and closes at 5:00 pm IST on Sunday, August 30, 2026.

IOC specified that the voting window is strictly time-bound. Shareholders looking to vote remotely need to complete the process within these dates and times.

Cut-off date for voting eligibility: August 24

IOC has set Monday, August 24, 2026 as the cut-off date for determining which shareholders can participate in remote e-voting. Only members who hold shares (either in physical form or dematerialised form) as of the cut-off date will be eligible to vote during the remote e-voting period.

This cut-off mechanism is standard in corporate actions, because it creates a snapshot of eligible shareholders ahead of the meeting and voting window.

Record date for final dividend: August 14

As per a communication dated June 30, 2026, IOC has fixed Friday, August 14, 2026 as the record date to determine shareholders eligible for the final dividend for FY2025-26. The final dividend declared is Rs. 1.25 per share, described by the company as 12.5% on the paid-up equity share capital for the year 2025-26.

The dividend will be paid within 30 days after shareholder approval at the AGM. This means the payout remains contingent on members approving the final dividend resolution in the August 31 meeting.

Key dates investors may track

The dates below summarise the company’s stated timeline for the AGM, voting, and dividend eligibility.

An event entry also lists “14/08/2026 | Ex-dividend date - 1.25 INR | 09:30 am”.

Executive leadership update: three retirements on July 31

Separately, IOC reported that three Executive Directors superannuated on July 31, 2026. The company named Ashutosh Kumar Mehta (Construction), Dhulipala Padma (CP & ES), and Jitendra Agarwalla (H, S&E). IOC said these were roles one level below the Board.

Such executive transitions can be relevant for investors tracking leadership continuity across operations, project execution, and functional oversight, though the company’s update was limited to the retirements.

Market snapshot and publicly listed indicators mentioned

The provided data also includes a price snapshot of IOC at ₹143, showing a move of 1.17% in that snapshot. Another entry shows “-0.69 (-0.50%) As on 05 Jun, 2026 | 15:59”. The information also notes that the stock is trading at 0.91 times its book value.

Additionally, it states that India Ratings assigned IOC bank facilities ratings of IND AAA (stable) and IND A1+ on June 29, 2026.

Context from past company calendar entries

The same dataset references earlier company events, including an earnings presentation on 19/05/2026 at 03:00 pm, and a Board of Directors meeting on 18/05/2026. It also lists the prior AGM on 30/08/2025 at 10:00 am, conducted through VC/OAVM.

Other calendar entries shown include “Sales and Revenue Release - Q2 2026” on 09/07/2026 at 11:00 am and “Earnings release - Q2 2026” on 23/07/2026. There is also an entry shown as “29/07/2026 | Ex-dividend date - 2.5 EUR | 09:30 am” as part of the listed past events.

Why these dates matter for shareholders

For shareholders focused on corporate actions, the record date of August 14, 2026 is the key threshold for the Rs. 1.25 per share final dividend eligibility, subject to approval at the AGM. For governance participation, the cut-off date of August 24 determines who can vote, while the remote e-voting window (August 27 to 30) sets the action period for casting votes ahead of the meeting.

The VC/OAVM structure reduces the need for physical attendance and places higher importance on timely access to the annual report, notice, and e-voting process.

Conclusion

Indian Oil Corporation’s 67th AGM is set for August 31, 2026 at 10:30 am IST via VC/OAVM, with remote e-voting open from August 27 to August 30 and a voting cut-off date of August 24. The company has fixed August 14, 2026 as the record date for the Rs. 1.25 per share final dividend for FY2025-26, payable within 30 days after shareholder approval at the AGM.
