Record Date and AGM Details
The decision to fix August 5, 2025, as the record date is in compliance with Regulation 42 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This date is crucial for shareholders as it determines their eligibility for two significant corporate events. Firstly, only those shareholders whose names appear in the company's register of members or in the records of the depositories as beneficial owners as of August 5, 2025, will be eligible to receive the final dividend for the financial year 2024-25, provided it is approved and declared by the shareholders at the upcoming 36th Annual General Meeting.
Secondly, the same record date will be used to identify shareholders who are eligible to attend and vote at the 36th Annual General Meeting. The AGM is a pivotal event where shareholders review the company's performance, approve financial statements, appoint directors, and consider other important resolutions, including the declaration of the final dividend. The AGM is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, a week after the designated record date.
Shareholder Implications
For existing shareholders of DCM Shriram Limited, it is imperative to ensure their shares are held in their demat accounts or that their names are registered in the company's records by the close of business on August 5, 2025, in order to be eligible for the dividend payment. Shareholders who acquire shares after this record date will not be eligible for the final dividend for FY25, nor will they be able to participate or vote in the 36th Annual General Meeting. Conversely, shareholders who sell their shares before the record date will forfeit their entitlement to the dividend and their right to attend the AGM. This mechanism ensures a clear cut-off for determining shareholder rights for specific corporate actions. The final dividend, if declared, will reflect the company's financial performance and its commitment to returning value to its shareholders for the fiscal year 2024-25.
Regulatory Compliance and Background
This intimation follows DCM Shriram's earlier announcement dated May 5, 2025, which communicated the outcome of the Board Meeting where, among other decisions, the date of the 36th Annual General Meeting was initially informed. The current announcement specifically provides the record date, fulfilling the regulatory requirements under SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The company, through its Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, Deepak Gupta, has formally communicated this information to both BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited, ensuring transparency and adherence to corporate governance norms. This proactive communication allows investors and stakeholders to plan their holdings accordingly in anticipation of the AGM and the potential dividend payout.
