The filing was made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Copies of the newspaper advertisements, published on August 1, 2026, in Mint (English) and Jansatta (Hindi), confirm the completion of dispatch for the AGM notice and the Integrated Annual Report for FY 2025-26.

E-Voting Timeline and Process

Shareholders are provided with the facility to vote electronically either remotely or during the AGM. The remote e-voting window opens on Monday, August 24, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. IST and closes on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. IST. Voting rights are determined by shareholding as on the cut-off date of Thursday, August 20, 2026. National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) facilitates the e-voting process.

Governance and Compliance

The Board of Directors appointed Mr. Rupinder Singh Bhatia, Practicing Company Secretary (Membership No. 2599), as the Scrutinizer to ensure a fair and transparent voting process. The results, along with the consolidated Scrutinizer's Report, will be declared within the stipulated time and uploaded to the company’s website and NSDL portal. The Integrated Annual Report for FY 2025-26 is available on the company’s investor relations page, alongside the AGM notice and detailed e-voting instructions.

What This Means for Shareholders

The shift to a fully digital AGM process underscores Jubilant FoodWorks' commitment to operational efficiency and shareholder accessibility. With the cut-off date approaching, shareholders holding shares in physical form are urged to register their email IDs with MUFG Intime India Pvt. Ltd (formerly Link Intime India Pvt. Ltd.) to receive future communications electronically. This ensures timely access to critical corporate information and voting rights.

Jubilant FoodWorks will hold its 31st Annual General Meeting on Thursday, August 27, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. (IST) via Video Conferencing/Other Audio Visual Means (VC/OAVM). The Board of Directors recommends a dividend of ₹1.20 per fully paid-up equity share of ₹2 each for FY25-26, representing a 60% payout ratio. This proposal seeks shareholder approval alongside the adoption of the Integrated Annual Report. The record date for dividend entitlement is July 17, 2026, determining eligibility for shareholders holding equity shares on this date.

The meeting agenda includes standard statutory approvals and the dividend declaration. In compliance with Regulation 36(1)(b) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the company will dispatch the AGM notice and annual report electronically to members with registered email IDs. Members without registered emails will receive a physical letter containing the weblink to access these documents. The documents are also available on the company’s website and stock exchange platforms.

Key Dates and Procedures

Shareholders must adhere to specific deadlines to participate in voting and ensure correct tax treatment of dividends. Remote e-voting facilities are available prior to the AGM, with additional e-voting options during the meeting for VC/OAVM attendees who have not voted remotely.

Tax Deduction at Source on Dividend

Dividend income is taxable under the Income Tax Act, 1961, read with the Finance Act, 2020. Jubilant FoodWorks must deduct tax at source (TDS) based on the shareholder’s residential status and category. To prevent deduction at the highest applicable rate, shareholders must upload requisite tax declarations (Form 15G/15H) via the designated link by August 06, 2026. Failure to submit these documents may result in higher withholding taxes.

Compliance and Investor Actions

Members holding shares in physical form are urged to update bank details and KYC information using Form ISR-1 with the Registrar to an Issue and Share Transfer Agent, Link Intime India Private Limited. Demat holders should coordinate with their Depository Participants. These updates are mandatory for electronic dividend credits and grievance lodging, as per SEBI’s Master Circular dated February 6, 2026.
