What was filed
Bharat Dynamics Limited (BDL) has told the exchanges the record date and share-book closure tied to its 56th Annual General Meeting. The record date for determining members eligible to receive the final dividend is Monday, 21 September 2026. The Register of Members and Share Transfer Books will remain closed from 22 September to 28 September 2026, both days inclusive.
Dividend timing and the AGM
The final dividend remains subject to approval by members at the AGM, scheduled for Monday, 28 September 2026 at 3:00 PM via video conferencing. If declared, it will be paid within 30 days of the date of declaration. The Notice of the 56th AGM and the Annual Report 2025-26 have been uploaded to the company's website and the exchange portals. The filing does not state the dividend amount.
Why the record date matters
A record date is the cut-off the company uses to identify who is on its register of members, and therefore entitled to the dividend. For a holder, eligibility for the final dividend — if it is declared at the AGM — hinges on being a recorded shareholder as of the record date. The per-share amount is not disclosed in this intimation and would follow from the AGM declaration.
