Patanjali Foods has scheduled its 40th Annual General Meeting for September 29, 2026. The virtual meeting will address the confirmation of interim dividends and the ratification of director remuneration.

The company seeks shareholder approval for three interim dividend payouts declared during FY26. These distributions total ₹5 per equity share across the financial year ended March 31, 2026.

Dividend Details

The Board proposes confirming the following interim dividends on approximately 108.78 crore equity shares:

All share counts exclude 2,28,897 treasury shares. The aggregate payout reflects a slight reduction in the third installment compared to the first two.

Director Remuneration and Appointments

Shareholders will vote on the re-appointment of Acharya Balkrishna as Chairman and Non-Executive Non-Independent Director. He retires by rotation and offers himself for re-election without any change in terms or remuneration.

The meeting also includes resolutions to approve remuneration for five non-executive directors for FY27. Each independent director—Girish Kumar Ahuja, Tejendra Mohan Bhasin, Gyan Sudha Misra, and Durga Shanker Mishra—is proposed a fee of ₹12 lakh. Additionally, Baghrai Majhi, the nominee director for Life Insurance Corporation of India, is recommended for the same remuneration amount.

Cost Auditor Ratification

The Board recommends ratifying the appointment of M/s. Balwinder & Associates as Cost Auditors for FY27. The approved remuneration is ₹5 lakh plus applicable taxes and out-of-pocket expenses.

What the Numbers Show

The dividend structure indicates a consistent return policy with a minor tapering in the final installment. The uniform remuneration of ₹12 lakh across all independent and nominee directors suggests a standardized compensation framework for non-executive board members, distinct from the Chairman’s unpaid role.
