Amarjothi Spinning Mills has fixed August 21, 2026, as the record date for determining shareholders eligible to receive the final dividend for the financial year 2025-26. The Board of Directors recommended a dividend of ₹2.20 per share, representing a 22% payout on the face value of ₹10 per share. This announcement coincides with the rescheduling of the company’s 38th Annual General Meeting (AGM) to August 28, 2026, shifting the event by one day from the previously intimated date of August 27, 2026.

The decision to revise the AGM schedule and confirm the record date was taken during a Board meeting held on July 27, 2026. The company notified the stock exchanges pursuant to Regulation 30 read with Part A of Schedule III and Regulation 42 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The revised timeline ensures alignment between the record date, the book closure period, and the AGM proceedings, which will be conducted via Video Conference or Other Audio Visual Means (OAVM) starting at 11:00 a.m.

Revised Schedule Details

The Registrar of Members and Share Transfer Books will remain closed from August 22, 2026, to August 28, 2026, both days inclusive. This period serves as the book closure window for determining members eligible for the 38th AGM and the payment of final dividends. Shareholders whose names appear on the Register of Members as of the cut-off date of August 21, 2026, will be eligible to receive the dividend if declared at the meeting.

The e-voting window remains three days long, running from Tuesday, August 25, to Thursday, August 27, providing ample time for remote participation. Investors should note that any share transfers initiated after August 21 will not reflect in the register before the cut-off, potentially excluding new buyers from this year’s dividend and voting rights.

What This Means for Investors

The one-day shift in the AGM date extends the book closure period accordingly, ensuring that shareholders have adequate notice to adjust their holdings if they wish to participate in the meeting or claim the dividend. The dividend payment will be made within 30 days of its declaration at the AGM, in compliance with Section 91 of The Companies Act, 2013. This structure maintains the standard payout rhythm while accommodating logistical adjustments to the annual meeting schedule.

Amarjothi Spinning Mills clarified to BSE regarding the delayed submission of prior intimations for Board Meetings held on January 5 and March 16, 2026. The company stated that the delays were due to inadvertence in calculating trading holidays. It has undertaken to ensure compliance with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 in future submissions.

In a communication dated June 19, 2026, the company addressed the exchange's query received on June 18, 2026. Amarjothi Spinning Mills informed BSE that it had submitted prior intimation for the January 5 meeting on January 2, 2026. However, the Board discussed the approval of a Postal Ballot Notice for the appointment of a director, a matter not covered under points (a) to (h) of Regulation 29(1) of SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015.

Regarding the Board Meeting held on March 16, 2026, the company submitted prior intimation on March 12, 2026. The Board discussed the appointment of a cost auditor, internal auditor, and the reconstitution of committees. The company clarified that prior intimation for these specific matters was not required under Regulation 29(1).

The company explained that the delay occurred because trading holidays were not included in the calculation of the two working days' advance notice period. Going forward, Amarjothi Spinning Mills stated it will calculate the period including trading holidays to ensure timely submission of all prior intimations.

Key Disclosures

Mohana Priya M, Company Secretary, signed the clarifications on behalf of Amarjothi Spinning Mills. The company requested BSE to take the submissions on record and sought guidance on whether prior intimations for the specified matters could be submitted voluntarily under Regulation 29.
