Tourism Finance Corporation of India has fixed Friday, August 14, 2026, as the record date to determine member entitlement to the dividend for FY2025-26. This date serves as the critical cut-off for shareholders seeking eligibility for the payout, which remains subject to formal declaration at the company’s upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). Investors holding equity must maintain their positions through this date to secure dividend rights, providing clarity on the distribution timeline ahead of final board approval.

The company will convene its 37th AGM on Friday, August 21, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. The meeting will be conducted through Video Conferencing (VC) or other Audio Visual Means (OAVM), adhering to regulatory guidelines. During this session, shareholders will vote on business items, including the recommendation by the Board of Directors to declare the dividend. Sanjay Ahuja, Company Secretary, signed the intimation on July 29, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 42 of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015.

To facilitate participation, Tourism Finance Corporation of India has arranged remote e-voting and venue e-voting facilities in accordance with Section 108 of the Companies Act, 2013, and Rule 20 of the Companies (Management & Administration) Rules, 2014. Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL) will provide the e-voting services. The remote voting window opens on August 18, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. (IST) and closes on August 20, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. (IST).

Shareholders must hold their shares as of the cut-off date of Friday, August 14, 2026, to be eligible to cast electronic votes at the AGM.

Tourism Finance Corporation of India will hold its 37th Annual General Meeting on August 21, 2026, to secure shareholder approval for raising debt capital up to ₹1,200 crore through private placement of non-convertible debentures. The meeting also addresses the appointment of Anoop Bali as Managing Director and the re-appointment of Aditya Kumar Halwasiya as a Non-Executive Non-Independent Director, marking a significant shift in leadership and capital structure strategy.

The Board of Directors seeks a special resolution under Sections 42 and 71 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with the Companies (Prospectus and Allotment of Securities) Rules, 2014, and SEBI (Issue and Listing of Non-Convertible Securities) Regulations, 2021. This approval allows the company to issue bonds and non-convertible debentures in one or more tranches over the next year, subject to RBI guidelines and existing borrowing limits. The move aims to provide cost-effective funding flexibility for business growth compared to public issues.

Key Resolutions for Approval

Shareholders will vote on ordinary and special business items critical to corporate governance and capital structure:

Anoop Bali’s appointment as Managing Director is effective from June 1, 2026, to May 31, 2028. His remuneration includes an all-inclusive cost to the company of ₹2.50 crore per annum, plus incentives decided by the Board annually. He is also eligible for stock options under any Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) with prior Nomination and Remuneration Committee/Board approval. In the event of inadequate profits, his remuneration will be paid as minimum remuneration under Schedule V of the Companies Act, 2013.

Governance and Operational Updates

The company proposes altering its Articles of Association to delete clauses related to the common seal, aligning with the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2015, which removed the mandatory requirement for a common seal. This change simplifies contract execution and enhances operational efficiency.

Aditya Kumar Halwasiya, who holds 4,08,92,000 equity shares (8.83% of paid-up capital), retires by rotation but offers himself for re-appointment. He serves as a promoter and Managing Director of Cupid Ltd. and brings expertise in debt instruments and capital market investments.
