Haleos Labs Limited has fixed Wednesday, September 23, 2026 as the record date for determining shareholder eligibility for the dividend for FY26 and voting rights at its 20th Annual General Meeting. The AGM is scheduled for September 30, 2026.

The company notified the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange of India Limited on September 5, 2026. This communication follows an earlier notice issued on August 5, 2026, regarding the event calendar.

Event Calendar

Key dates related to the AGM include the cut-off date for dividend entitlement and voting, which is set for September 23, 2026. The notice of the AGM and Annual Report will be dispatched via email on September 8, 2026.

The provisions of Book Closure have been omitted pursuant to SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) (Third Amendment) Regulations, 2024.

Voting and Scrutiny

The Board appointed Central Depository Services (India) Ltd as the authorized agency to provide the platform for attending and e-voting facilities. Detailed procedures are available on the company's website.

Mr. C. Sudhir Babu, a Practicing Company Secretary and Proprietor of CSB Associates, was appointed as the Scrutinizer. He will conduct the remote e-voting process and the e-voting system on the date of the AGM to ensure a fair and transparent manner.

Dividend Payment Details

Dividends recommended by the Board, if approved by shareholders, will be subject to tax deduction at source. Payments will be made within 30 days of approval via credit to shareholders' bank accounts.

Pursuant to the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) (Fifth Amendment) Regulations, 2025, all dividend payments must be made through electronic modes approved by the Reserve Bank of India. The company will discontinue physical dividend warrants. Shareholders without registered or updated valid bank account details with the company or depository participants will not receive dividend payments until details are updated.

Shareholders of Haleos Labs Limited approved the reappointment of Mrs. Sudeepthi Gopineedi as Whole-time Director but rejected a special resolution concerning managerial remuneration for Executive Directors.

The postal ballot process, which concluded on August 28, 2026, saw three of the four proposed resolutions pass with requisite majorities. The rejected resolution sought approval for payment of managerial remuneration pursuant to Regulation 17(6)(e) of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Voting Results

The voting results, scrutinized by C. Sudhir Babu of CSB Associates, reveal distinct shareholder sentiment across the agenda items. While the reappointment and related party transaction approvals enjoyed near-unanimous support from voting public shareholders, the remuneration proposal faced significant opposition.

The reappointment of Mrs. Gopineedi for a further period of five years received 99.99% support from valid votes cast. Similarly, the ordinary resolutions approving material related party transactions for both the company and its material subsidiary for FY27 passed with over 99.98% affirmative votes.

What the Numbers Show

The failure of the managerial remuneration resolution was driven by substantial opposition from the promoter group. The scrutinizer's report notes that 4,83,612 votes cast by the promoter group against the remuneration resolution were counted as valid, whereas identical vote counts from the same group were marked invalid for the other resolutions due to interest conflicts.

While public non-institutional shareholders voted 90.81% in favor of the remuneration package, the promoter group’s unified opposition—comprising 82.16% of all valid votes cast on this specific item—prevented the special resolution from achieving the necessary majority. This divergence highlights a clear split between promoter interests and public shareholder preferences regarding executive compensation limits.

The resolutions passed are deemed effective as of August 28, 2026. The company has uploaded the detailed voting results and scrutinizer’s report on its website and the Central Depository Services (India) Limited platform.
