Tax Deduction at Source
In accordance with the Income Tax Act, 2025, dividend income is taxable in the hands of shareholders. Consequently, the company will deduct tax at source (TDS) at the time of payment. The applicable tax rate depends on the shareholder's residential status and the documentation submitted by the June 22, 2026 deadline.
Resident Shareholders
For resident individuals with a valid Permanent Account Number (PAN), TDS will be deducted at 10%. This rate increases to 20% if the PAN is invalid, not linked with Aadhaar, or unavailable. No tax will be deducted if the total dividend income for Tax Year 2026-27 does not exceed Rs 10,000 or if the shareholder submits valid exemption certificates such as Form 121.
Non-Resident Shareholders
Taxes for non-resident shareholders will be withheld at 20% plus applicable surcharge and cess under domestic tax laws. Shareholders may opt for benefits under Double Tax Avoidance Agreements (DTAA) if more favorable, provided they submit a Tax Residency Certificate, self-attested PAN copy, and a self-declaration in Form 41. Global Depositary Receipt holders face a 10% withholding rate if PAN is provided, rising to 20% otherwise.
Shareholders are required to update bank account details and submit necessary tax documents by June 22, 2026, to ensure the correct tax deduction and timely credit of the dividend.
