The bank's Board of Directors had previously recommended a final dividend of ₹4 per equity share for the financial year 2024-25, which will be considered for approval at this upcoming AGM.

AGM Details and Purpose

The 26th Annual General Meeting will be conducted virtually, without the physical presence of members at a common venue, in adherence to the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, and relevant circulars issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) and SEBI. The meeting is convened to transact both ordinary and special business as outlined in the Notice of the 26th AGM. This virtual format ensures broader participation while complying with regulatory guidelines for shareholder meetings. The bank has already dispatched the AGM Notice and the Annual Report for FY'25 via e-mail on Tuesday, July 08, 2025, to members whose e-mail addresses were registered with the bank, depositories, or its Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA), MUFG Intime India Private Limited. For members who have not registered their e-mail addresses, a letter providing the exact weblink to the AGM notice and Annual Report is being sent. Physical copies of the Annual Report for FY 2024-25 can be requested by members by sending an email to cs@capitalbank.co.in, mentioning their Folio No./DP ID and Client ID. The AGM Notice and Annual Report are also accessible on the bank's official website, www.capitalbank.co.in, as well as on the websites of BSE Limited (www.bseindia.com), National Stock Exchange of India Limited (www.nse.com), and MUFG Intime India Private Limited (www.instavote.linkintime.co.in).

Dividend Recommendation

The Board of Directors, in its meeting held on April 29, 2025, recommended a final dividend of ₹4 per equity share. This translates to 40% on the face value of ₹10 per fully paid-up equity share. The payment of this dividend is contingent upon its approval by the shareholders at the 26th AGM. Should the dividend be approved, the record date for determining eligible shareholders for the dividend payment has been fixed as Friday, July 25, 2025. Shareholders are advised to refer to the Notes in the AGM Notice or the instructions on the bank's website for details regarding Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on the dividend payment.

E-Voting Information

Capital Small Finance Bank is providing its members with the facility to cast their votes electronically on all resolutions presented in the AGM Notice. This e-voting system, managed by MUFG Intime India Private Limited, is available for both remote e-voting prior to the AGM and e-voting during the AGM. The e-voting period will commence on Tuesday, July 29, 2025, at 09:00 A.M. (IST) and will conclude on Thursday, July 31, 2025, at 05:00 P.M. (IST). The remote e-voting module will be disabled after this specified time. Once a vote is cast, it cannot be changed or cast again.
The cut-off date for determining the eligibility of members to vote is Friday, July 25, 2025. Only individuals whose names are recorded in the register of members or beneficial owners as of this cut-off date will be entitled to vote. Members who acquire shares after the dispatch of the AGM Notice but hold shares as of the cut-off date can obtain their login ID and password by sending a request to enotices@in.mpms.mufg.com. Existing users registered with MUFG Intime India Private Limited for remote e-voting can use their current credentials. Members who have already cast their vote through remote e-voting prior to the AGM can still participate in the AGM via VC/OAVM but will not be able to vote again during the meeting. Conversely, members attending the AGM who have not cast their vote remotely will be entitled to vote during the AGM. The voting rights of members will be proportionate to their shareholding in the total paid-up equity share capital of the bank as of the cut-off date. Given the virtual nature of the AGM, the appointment of proxies by members will not be applicable, in line with MCA circulars.

Sehgal and Associates (Membership No.: F11407 and COP No.: 15161), a Practicing Company Secretary, as the Scrutinizer.
