NBCC (India) Limited declared a final dividend of ₹0.46 per fully paid-up equity share of face value ₹1 each for FY26. The payout represents a 46% return on face value and requires shareholder approval at the 66th Annual General Meeting (AGM).

The Board of Directors fixed August 28, 2026, as the record date for dividend eligibility. Shareholders in electronic form must update details with Depository Participants, while physical shareholders must submit Form ISR-1 to the Registrar & Transfer Agents.

AGM and E-Voting Schedule

The 66th AGM will be held on September 11, 2026, at 12:00 noon (IST) via Video Conferencing or Other Audio Visual Means (OAVM). This mode complies with the Companies Act, 2013, and SEBI Listing Regulations. Members can participate and vote electronically during the meeting.

National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) provides the remote e-voting facility. Members who do not cast votes remotely can vote during the AGM. The voting module disables after the remote period ends.

Taxation and Compliance

Dividends are taxable under the Income Tax Act, 2025. NBCC will deduct tax at source (TDS) upon payment. To claim TDS exemption or concessional rates, shareholders must submit documents to dividend.tax@nbccindia.com by September 5, 2026. No requests after this deadline will be entertained.

Payments are electronic only. Physical shareholders must provide PAN, bank details, and specimen signatures to the RTA for NACH facility setup.

What the Numbers Show

The 46% dividend yield relative to face value reflects a consistent capital return strategy for the government-owned enterprise. With the record date set nearly a month before the AGM, the timeline allows institutional investors time to adjust portfolios while giving retail shareholders adequate notice for tax documentation.

NBCC reported a profit after tax of ₹742.44 crore for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. The Navratna CPSE also disclosed standalone revenue from operations of ₹9,755.31 crore and consolidated revenue of ₹12,888.61 crore. The company filed its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 on August 20, 2026.

Financial Performance

NBCC’s FY26 results reflect its progress toward Vision 2030 targets. The company aims to grow standalone revenue to approximately ₹21,550 crore by FY30. Current performance shows a consolidated revenue base significantly higher than standalone figures, indicating substantial contribution from subsidiaries and joint ventures.

Sustainability Metrics

The company reported total energy consumption of 50,553.10 GJ, with non-renewable sources accounting for the entirety of this figure. Energy intensity decreased to 0.052 GJ per lakh rupee of turnover, down from 0.057 in the previous year. Greenhouse gas emissions rose, with Scope 1 emissions reaching 3,123.08 MT CO2 equivalent and Scope 2 emissions at 971.36 MT CO2 equivalent.

Water consumption stood at 13,821.88 kilolitres, with an intensity of 0.01 per rupee of turnover. The company generated 24.02 metric tonnes of waste, primarily construction and demolition debris.

Governance and Safety

NBCC maintains a zero-fatalty record for employees and workers in FY26. The Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate remained at zero. The company received a penalty of ₹51.56 lakh from stock exchanges for board composition non-compliance but has requested a waiver citing government appointment delays.

What the Numbers Show

While energy intensity improved, absolute Scope 1 emissions increased by over 50% compared to FY25 levels. This divergence suggests that operational scale or specific project activities drove higher direct emissions despite efficiency gains per unit of revenue. The company is currently implementing ISO 45001 certification to strengthen safety frameworks further.
