The sale value of ₹46.25 crore indicates a substantial liquidity event for the director, executed entirely through open market mechanisms rather than off-market transfers or block deals.

S P Apparels has scheduled its 21st Annual General Meeting (AGM) for September 21, 2026, to approve a proposed 5:1 stock split and a recommended final dividend of ₹3 per equity share for FY26.

The company issued the notice on August 28, 2026. The Board of Directors recommended the dividend at its meeting held on August 11, 2026. The payout is subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The record date for determining dividend entitlement is fixed as September 4, 2026.

Share Capital Subdivision

The Board proposed a special resolution to subdivide the face value of equity shares from ₹10 each to ₹2 each. This 5:1 split aims to enhance liquidity and attract small investors. The aggregate paid-up share capital will remain unchanged at ₹25.14 crore.

Consequently, the company seeks approval to alter Clause V of its Memorandum of Association to reflect the new authorized capital structure of 236.25 crore shares of ₹2 face value each.

Dividend and Tax Deduction at Source

The recommended dividend is ₹3 per equity share of face value ₹10. Shareholders on record as of September 4, 2026, will be eligible for the payment. Dividends will be paid electronically within 30 days to shareholders on record.

Pursuant to the Finance Act, 2020, dividend distribution tax has been abolished, and dividend income is taxable in the hands of shareholders.
