Ajmera Realty & Infra India Limited has issued detailed guidelines on Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) for its proposed final dividend of ₹1 per equity share for FY26. The communication, dated August 26, 2026, clarifies compliance requirements for resident and non-resident shareholders ahead of the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
Dividend Details and Timeline
The company previously fixed September 16, 2026 as the record date for the dividend payment. The payout is subject to shareholder approval at the 39th AGM, scheduled for September 23, 2026. If approved, payments will be made on or before October 22, 2026, after deducting applicable taxes.
TDS Provisions for Resident Shareholders
Under the Income Tax Act, 2025, as amended by the Finance Act, 2026, dividend income is taxable in the hands of shareholders. For resident individuals, TDS is deducted at 10% if the aggregate dividend exceeds ₹10,000 and a valid PAN is provided.
Shareholders can avoid TDS by submitting valid Form 121 (erstwhile Forms 15G/15H) if they meet prescribed conditions. Failure to link Aadhaar with PAN will result in the PAN being deemed inoperative, triggering a higher TDS rate of 20% under Section 397 of the Act. Non-individual resident entities such as mutual funds, insurance companies, and specific Alternative Investment Funds may claim exemption by providing self-declarations and relevant registration certificates.
Guidelines for Non-Resident Shareholders
Non-resident shareholders are subject to TDS at 20% plus applicable surcharge and cess under Section 393(2). To avail benefits under Double Tax Avoidance Agreements (DTAA), non-residents must submit:
- Self-attested PAN copy
- Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) from their country of residence
- Form 41 declaration from the Income Tax portal
- Treaty eligibility and beneficial ownership declarations
The company notes that it is not obligated to apply beneficial DTAA rates unless documents are complete and satisfactory. Foreign Institutional Investors must also provide SEBI registration certificates.
Document Submission Deadline
Shareholders must upload required tax-related documents, including Form 121 and exemption certificates, via the designated RTA link on or before September 11, 2026. Communications received after this date will not be considered for determining applicable TDS rates. Physical folio holders must ensure PAN, nomination, bank details, and specimen signatures are updated with the Registrar to an Issue and Share Transfer Agent (RTA), MUFG Intime India Private Limited, to receive dividends electronically.
AGM Agenda and Resolutions
The 39th AGM will also address several key corporate governance matters:
- Adoption of audited standalone and consolidated financial statements for FY26
