As per the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 2025, dividends are taxable in the hands of shareholders, and the Company is required to deduct tax at source. The applicable rates vary based on the residential status of the shareholder and documents submitted. Shareholders were required to submit relevant declarations and documents on or before May 14, 2026, through the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent, MUFG Intime India Private Limited, to enable determination of appropriate TDS rates.

For non-resident shareholders, including Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs), tax is deductible at 20% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) under the Act, or the applicable tax treaty rate, whichever is lower. To avail treaty benefits, non-residents are required to submit documents including a valid Tax Residency Certificate, Indian PAN (if available), Form 41 in electronic format, and a self-declaration confirming beneficial ownership and absence of a Permanent Establishment in India. In the absence of such documents, withholding rates as prescribed under the Act apply.
