Jindal Stainless Ltd has fixed August 21, 2026, as the record date to determine shareholders eligible for its proposed final dividend of Rs 3 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2026.
The dividend is subject to approval by shareholders at the company's upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM).
The proposed payout carries a face value of Rs 2 per share, meaning the dividend is equivalent to 150% of the share's face value.
Investors whose names appear in the company's register of members or as beneficial owners in depository records at the close of business on the record date will be eligible for the payout, subject to shareholder approval.
Jindal Stainless said the dividend will be paid within 30 days of the AGM, after deducting applicable tax at source.
The company communicated the record date under Regulation 42 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The filing was signed by Navneet Raghuvanshi, Head-Legal, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer.
