Goenka Business & Finance’s proposed ₹0.50-per-share final dividend faces a shareholder vote before its October eligibility timetable. The board recommended the FY2026 payment on September 19 and included it in a revised notice for the September 29 annual general meeting.
A subsequent September 23 filing fixes October 2, 2026 as the record date. As of this September 28 report, the scheduled AGM has not occurred, so the proposal should not be described as an already-approved shareholder distribution.
What changed in the AGM notice
The board outcome and revised notice add declaration of the final dividend to the meeting’s business. The company says the meeting schedule is unchanged: September 29 at 11:00 a.m., through video conferencing or other audio-visual means.
The proposed 5% dividend is ₹0.50 against each ₹10-face-value share. For 100 eligible shares, the gross entitlement would be ₹50 if approved. The 5% description is not a yield calculated from the market price.
October 1 and October 2 describe different things
The company’s record-date filing names October 2. The broker corporate-action calendar lists October 1 as the ex-date. Those are not competing record dates: the ex-date concerns how shares trade, while the record date identifies the entitled holders.
Readers should confirm the exchange timetable before acting. Buying on a record date does not automatically secure a dividend, and the date itself does not establish when a bank account will be credited.
Next evidence: the shareholder decision
The AGM voting outcome is the immediate document to watch. Payment confirmation comes later. This report explains the proposal’s current status and does not forecast the share price, recommend a purchase or promise an investment gain.
