Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited will hold its 34th Annual General Meeting on Friday, July 31, 2026, at 4:00 P.M. IST via video conferencing. The Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend of ₹5 per equity share of face value ₹1 each for the financial year 2025-26. This dividend is subject to the approval of members at the ensuing AGM.
The company has fixed Tuesday, July 7, 2026, as the record date to determine the members eligible to receive the dividend. Shareholders holding shares as on this date will receive the payment electronically, provided their bank details are updated with the depository participant or the company's Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA), MUFG Intime India Private Limited.
Members holding shares in physical form must update their KYC details, including PAN, contact details, nomination, bank account details, and specimen signature, in accordance with a SEBI circular dated June 10, 2024. Failure to meet these KYC requirements, excluding the non-submission of a choice of nomination, will result in the inability to receive dividends.
The Notice of the 34th AGM along with the Annual Report for the financial year 2025-26 will be sent electronically to members whose email addresses are registered with the RTA or depositories. These documents will also be available on the company's website and the websites of BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited.
Members will have the opportunity to cast their votes remotely on the business set forth in the Notice through remote e-voting.
