Tax Deducted at Source on Dividend
The dividend is taxable in the hands of members under the Income-tax Act, 2025, and the company will deduct tax at source (TDS) at the time of payment. The applicable withholding tax rates vary based on the shareholder's residential status and documentation.
Resident Shareholders
For resident individuals, the TDS rate depends on the status of their Permanent Account Number (PAN):
| Particulars | Current rate of withholding tax |
|---|---|
| Valid PAN updated in the Company's Register of Members | 10% |
| Members not having PAN (not registered) / invalid PAN | 20% |
| Submission of lower/nil tax deduction certificate u/s 395 | Rate specified in the certificate |
No tax is deducted if the total dividend received during FY27 does not exceed ₹10,000 or if valid Form 121 is provided. Resident entities like insurance companies may qualify for a NIL rate with sufficient evidence.
Non-Resident Shareholders
Non-resident shareholders face a TDS rate of 20% plus surcharge and cess, unless Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) provisions apply. To claim DTAA benefits, shareholders must submit a self-attested PAN, Tax Residency Certificate, self-declaration in Form 41, and a specific declaration for FY26. Dividends paid to Foreign Institutional Investors and Foreign Portfolio Investors are subject to 20% TDS plus surcharge and cess, generally without DTAA benefits. Shareholders in notified jurisdictional areas face a TDS rate of 30% or the applicable rate, whichever is higher.
Document Submission Requirements
Shareholders must submit self-attested copies of required documents to KFin Technologies Limited via the online portal by July 6, 2026. Custodians must submit a declaration under Rule 203 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026, by the same deadline to transfer TDS credit to the beneficial owner.
