Kanoria Energy & Infrastructure has officially confirmed that shareholders holding units on August 11, 2026, will be eligible to receive the company’s final dividend. This specific record date was communicated in a filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange on July 24, 2026, clarifying the cutoff for dividend entitlements ahead of the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). The confirmation ensures transparency for investors regarding their eligibility for the payout, which remains subject to shareholder approval at the AGM scheduled for August 18, 2026.

The intimation was issued pursuant to Regulation 42 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Lokesh Mundra, Company Secretary, signed the disclosure filed with the exchange. This procedural step follows the earlier announcement of the closure of the Register of Members and Share Transfer Books from August 12 to August 18, 2026, a period necessary to facilitate the AGM and subsequent dividend disbursement.

Financial Context and Dividend Proposal

The dividend recommendation comes against a backdrop of declining profitability for Kanoria Energy. For FY26, the company reported a total income of ₹27,026.72 lakh, a decrease from ₹30,115.06 lakh in FY25. Profit after tax contracted significantly to ₹39.16 lakh from ₹356.32 lakh in the previous year. Despite this financial contraction, the Board has recommended a final dividend of 1%, equivalent to ₹0.05 per equity share with a face value of ₹5.

AGM Agenda and Governance Changes

The AGM, set for August 18, 2026, at Hotel PFC Garden in Bhilwara, will address critical governance matters beyond the dividend. Shareholders will vote on the adoption of audited financial statements for FY26 and several key board appointments. Smt. Priyadarshinee Kanoria resigned as Whole Time Director effective May 20, 2026, and her role is being filled by Shri Anish Kanoria, appointed for three years with a remuneration cap of ₹30.00 lakh per annum.

Additionally, Shri Rajiv Lall Adya seeks re-appointment as Whole Time Director for three years from November 12, 2026, with a remuneration ceiling of ₹110.00 lakh per annum. Mrs. Stuti Narain Kacker is proposed as an Independent Director for five years from May 20, 2026, requiring shareholder consent for her tenure beyond age 75.

Voting Mechanism and Compliance

Shareholders holding shares on the voting record date of July 17, 2026, are eligible to cast their votes. Remote e-voting will be available via the NSDL system from Saturday, August 15, 2026, at 9:00 a.m., until Monday, August 17, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. In a separate compliance matter, unclaimed dividends from FY25-26 and associated shares will be transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund by December 3, 2026.
