Xchanging Solutions has recommended a final dividend of ₹2 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. The Board of Directors approved the payout, which equates to 20% on the face value of ₹10 per share. The dividend is subject to approval by members at the company’s 25th Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Shareholders whose names appear in the register of members as of Friday, August 14, 2026, will be eligible for the dividend. The payment will be made exclusively through electronic mode based on updated bank mandates registered in physical or demat holdings.
Tax Deduction at Source Guidelines
As the dividend is payable after April 1, 2026, it falls under the taxability provisions of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (as amended by Finance Act, 2026). The company will deduct tax at source (TDS) at prescribed rates depending on the residential status of the shareholder and applicable exemptions.
Key Dates and Compliance
- Record Date: August 14, 2026
- Document Submission Deadline: August 19, 2026, 6:00 pm
Shareholders are required to submit declarations, exemption documents, or tax treaty relief certificates valid for FY26-27. Failure to provide valid Permanent Account Number (PAN) details or linking PAN with Aadhaar may result in TDS deduction at a higher rate of 20% under Section 397 of the Act.
Resident Shareholders
For resident individuals with a valid PAN, TDS is deducted at 10%. No tax will be deducted if the total dividend received during FY26-27 does not exceed ₹10,000 or if Form 121 is furnished meeting eligibility conditions. Resident non-individuals, including mutual funds, insurance companies, and alternative investment funds (AIFs), must provide self-declarations and registration certificates to claim exemptions.
Non-Resident Shareholders
Non-resident shareholders face a withholding tax rate of 20% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) unless they provide a certificate under Section 395 of the Act for lower or nil withholding. To avail benefits under Double Tax Avoidance Agreements (DTAA), non-residents must submit:
- Self-attested PAN card or Tax Identification Number details
- Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) for FY26-27
- E-filed Form 41 valid for April 2026 to March 2027
- Self-declaration of beneficial ownership
Documents must be uploaded via the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent (RTA) portal or emailed to the designated address by the August 19 deadline. The company relies on register data as of the record date for TDS compliance.
What the Numbers Show
The declared dividend of ₹2 per share indicates a conservative capital return strategy relative to the ₹10 face value. With the payout contingent on AGM approval, the final disbursement timeline remains dependent on shareholder ratification.
