The AGM agenda includes two special resolutions regarding director appointments:
- Reappointment of Mr. Dinesh Alla: Shareholders will vote on the reappointment of Mr. Dinesh Alla as Chairman and Managing Director for five years, effective August 21, 2026. His remuneration for the first three years of this tenure is also up for approval.

Financial Performance Context
The AGM coincides with the adoption of audited financial statements for FY26. Key financial indicators for the year ended March 31, 2026, are:
| Metric | FY26 (₹ in Lakhs) | FY25 (₹ in Lakhs) |
|---|---|---|
| Total Revenue | 10,972.04 | 9,096.27 |
| Total Expenses | 13,382.61 | 11,023.81 |
| Net Loss | (1,429.49) | (763.30) |
| Net Worth | 22,431.75 | 24,364.69 |
The company reported a net loss of ₹1,429.49 lakh in FY26, widening from a loss of ₹763.30 lakh in FY25. Despite the loss, total revenue grew to ₹10,972.04 lakh from ₹9,096.27 lakh in the previous year. The Board attributed the losses primarily to declining profit margins and competitive pricing pressures in the geophysical data services sector.
What the Numbers Show
While revenue expanded by approximately 20% YoY, the net loss nearly doubled, indicating that cost structures or pricing pressures outpaced top-line growth. The proposed ₹5 dividend represents a significant cash outflow relative to the company’s negative net worth trend (down from ₹24,364.69 lakh to ₹22,431.75 lakh), highlighting a commitment to shareholder returns despite operational headwinds.
Tax and Compliance Updates
Shareholders must submit relevant documents by September 11, 2026, at 5:00 pm IST to avail beneficial tax rates. TDS rates vary by category: 10% for resident individuals if dividends exceed ₹10,000; 20% for non-residents plus surcharge/cess. Physical shareholders must update KYC details via Form ISR-1 to receive dividends electronically.
In compliance with Regulation 36(1)(b) of SEBI Listing Regulations, letters providing web-links to the Annual Report were dispatched on August 27, 2026, to shareholders who have not registered email addresses with the company or its Registrar and Share Transfer Agent, M/s KFin Technologies Limited. The notice of the 39th AGM along with the Annual Report for the financial year 2025-2026 was sent on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, through electronic mode to members with registered email addresses.
Special Window for Transfer and Dematerialisation
Pursuant to SEBI Circular dated January 30, 2026, shareholders are informed that SEBI has opened a special one-year window from February 5, 2026 to February 4, 2027 for transfer and dematerialisation of physical shares. This facility is available for shares sold or purchased prior to April 1, 2019 and for transfer requests earlier rejected, returned, or not processed due to deficiencies in documents or process. Requests must be accompanied by original share certificates, transfer deeds, and requisite documents; cases involving disputes between transferor and transferee are excluded and must be settled through court/NCLT, while shares already transferred to IEPF are not eligible. Securities transferred under this window will be credited only in demat mode and remain under lock-in for one year, during which they cannot be transferred, pledged, or lien-marked.
