Kamdhenu AGM 2026: ₹0.40 dividend, key dates

What Kamdhenu has announced

Kamdhenu Limited has scheduled its 32nd Annual General Meeting (AGM) for September 25, 2026. The meeting will be conducted through video conferencing or other audio-visual means (VC/OAVM) at 12:00 noon IST. Shareholders will consider the adoption of audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2026. The agenda also includes voting on a final dividend for FY2025-26 and several board and remuneration-related resolutions. The company also issued an intimation about dispatching letters to shareholders whose email addresses are not registered, to help them access the annual report and AGM notice online.

AGM format and participation details

The AGM will be held online, and the company has stated that up to 1,000 members can join the VC facility on a first-come-first-served basis. Remote e-voting opens on September 22, 2026 and closes on September 24, 2026. This window is relevant for shareholders who prefer to vote ahead of the meeting rather than during the live proceedings. The company’s communication focuses on ensuring shareholders receive the FY2025-26 annual report and the 32nd AGM notice through registered electronic channels.

Dividend proposal: ₹0.40 per share for FY26

The Board has recommended a final dividend of ₹0.40 per equity share for FY2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The company describes this as its highest-ever final dividend. The dividend is stated as 40% of face value, with the equity share face value mentioned as ₹1 per share. If approved, the total cash outflow on account of the dividend would be ₹11.28 crore, and the dividend payout is stated at 14.39% of profits.

Record date and payout timeline

Kamdhenu has fixed September 18, 2026 as the record date for determining eligibility for the final dividend. The company has stated that the dividend, if declared, will be paid within 30 days of declaration. For investors, the record date is the key cutoff for entitlement, since the dividend is payable to shareholders holding equity shares as on that date.

TDS rules and document submission deadline

The company has highlighted that dividends are taxable and tax will be deducted at source (TDS) as applicable. For resident shareholders with a valid PAN, the TDS rate is 10%, unless the total dividend in FY26 does not exceed ₹10,000, in which case no tax is deducted. Shareholders without a valid or operative PAN face a 20% TDS rate. For non-resident shareholders, TDS is 20% plus applicable surcharge and cess, or lower treaty rates if valid documentation is submitted. The company has asked shareholders to submit required documents for TDS benefits by September 10, 2026.

Email registration: why Kamdhenu is sending letters

Kamdhenu has informed shareholders with unregistered email addresses that the FY2025-26 annual report and the AGM notice are accessible through its website, with specific links and paths provided. It also outlined a process for requesting physical copies upon request. The communication emphasises that shareholders should verify and register their email addresses to receive official communications and access reports online. The company’s update notes no change in the underlying corporate action itself, but focuses on improving delivery and access to statutory documents.

Board and remuneration items on the agenda

Alongside the dividend, shareholders will vote on board-related resolutions. Satish Kumar Agarwal is up for reappointment, with a proposed monthly salary in the range of ₹40 lakh to ₹50 lakh for FY27 to FY29. Independent director Pravin Tripathi seeks reappointment for a second term, with the term stated to end in 2032, and the effective date mentioned as May 30, 2027 (subject to shareholder approval). The company also indicated an increase in the remuneration limit for a related party, Smt. Vipil Agarwal, to ₹5 lakh per month.

Financial performance snapshot cited by the company

Kamdhenu reported that Profit After Tax (PAT) rose 28.73% year-on-year to ₹78.35 crore in FY2025-26, while Profit Before Tax (PBT) grew 31.25% to ₹105.52 crore. It also stated that PAT increased from ₹60.87 crore in FY2024-25 to ₹78.35 crore in FY2025-26, with commentary that royalty income and franchise volumes supported profitability despite softer steel realisations. Separately, the company reported a 25% rise in royalty income to ₹175 crore, remained debt-free, and cited an ROCE of 26.8%.

Quarterly update and upcoming board meeting reference

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY27), Kamdhenu reported PAT of ₹28.69 crore, up 34% year-on-year from ₹21.42 crore, and PBT of ₹36.43 crore. Revenue from operations for the quarter was stated at ₹213.35 crore, up 9%, with a significant surge in other income also cited. The company also informed the stock exchange that a board meeting was scheduled for July 29, 2026 to consider and approve unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, along with the limited review report.
