ncc Limited has scheduled its 36th Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Thursday, August 27, 2026, at 3.00 PM (IST), via Video Conferencing or Other Audio Visual Means. The primary agenda includes seeking approval for a dividend of ₹2.20 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, alongside critical governance resolutions regarding board composition and executive remuneration. Shareholders holding shares as of the cut-off date, August 20, 2026, are eligible to vote, with remote e-voting open from August 24 to August 26, 2026.

The meeting follows the submission of the Integrated Annual Report for FY25-26 in compliance with Regulation 34 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The record date for dividend entitlement is fixed for Friday, August 14, 2026. Dividends will be credited directly to bank accounts of KYC-compliant shareholders, as physical warrants have been discontinued effective November 19, 2025, per SEBI Master Circular no. SEBI/HO/38/13/(4)2026-MIRSD-POD/I/4298/2026.

Key Resolutions

The Board of Directors has proposed several ordinary and special resolutions for shareholder consideration:

Executive Appointments and Remuneration

A significant special resolution seeks approval for the reappointment of Sri A V N Raju as Whole-time Director for a further period of five years, effective May 30, 2026. As a promoter with over four decades of experience, he heads the Electrical & Irrigation Division. His remuneration structure includes a basic salary scalable between ₹4.00 lakhs and ₹10.00 lakhs per month, perquisites up to 75% of monthly salary, and a commission of up to 0.5% of net profits.

Additionally, the Board seeks approval for the appointment of Smt. Kausalya Bhupathi Raju as Director (Commercial) with effect from September 1, 2026. This resolution is classified as a related party transaction as she is the sister of promoter directors A A V Ranga Raju, A G K Raju, A S N Raju, and A V N Raju. Her basic salary will be revised from ₹1.06 lakhs to ₹4.00 lakhs per month, with potential revisions up to ₹10.00 lakhs per month based on performance. The Board deemed this approval necessary for transparency, despite it being an arm's length transaction in the ordinary course of business.

What the Numbers Show

The cost audit scope highlights the scale of NCC's infrastructure operations. For FY25-26, revenue from projects subject to cost audit—specifically roads and other infrastructure development—stood at ₹2,309 crores, representing approximately 13% of the company's total revenue of ₹17,463 crores. This marks an increase from FY24-25, when such revenue was ₹1,906 crores, constituting about 10% of total revenue of ₹19,205 crores. The growth in the proportion of audited infrastructure revenue suggests a continued strategic focus on large-scale public sector projects, which typically carry longer payment cycles but offer stable order books.

Shareholder Instructions

Shareholders must ensure their KYC details are updated with the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent, KFin Technologies Limited, to receive dividends electronically. Those wishing to inspect documents can do so electronically during the e-voting period or physically at the registered office in Hyderabad.

NCC Limited submitted its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for the financial year 2025-26 to the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited on July 27, 2026. The filing, made in compliance with Regulation 34(2)(f) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, provides a standalone disclosure of the company’s environmental, social, and governance performance across 186 operational sites in India and one international office. The report forms part of the Integrated Annual Report 2025-26 and has received independent reasonable assurance from SGS India Private Limited under ISAE 3000 (Revised) and ISAE 3410 standards.

NCC Limited reported a significant reduction in energy intensity during FY2025-26.
