RBL Bank Intimates Shareholders on Dividend Tax Deduction (TDS) for FY 2024-25
This announcement has a medium impact as it directly affects shareholders' net dividend receipt by detailing the TDS process and requiring them to take action (update details, submit forms) to ensure correct tax deduction or claim exemptions. Non-compliance could lead to higher tax deductions.
The announcement is primarily an intimation about the procedural aspects of Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) on a previously recommended dividend. While a dividend is positive, this specific communication focuses on compliance and tax implications rather than new financial performance or strategic growth, thus making the sentiment neutral.
RBL Bank Limited has informed its shareholders regarding the process and documentation required for tax deduction at source (TDS) on the dividend payable for the financial year ended March 31, 2025. * The Board of Directors, at their meeting on April 25, 2025, recommended a dividend of Re. 1.00 per equity share (10%) for FY 2024-25. * This dividend is subject to approval by shareholders at the 82nd Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held on September 26, 2025. * The dividend will be paid on or before October 25, 2025, to eligible members. * The Record Date for determining eligible shareholders for the dividend is Tuesday, September 9, 2025. * As per the Income-tax Act, 1961, dividends paid are taxable in the hands of shareholders, and the Bank will deduct TDS at applicable rates. * Shareholders are requested to ensure their details, including Permanent Account Number (PAN), residential status, category, email address, residential address, and contact number, are updated by September 9, 2025 (5:00 p.m.) with their Depository Participant(s) or the Bank’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent. * Failure to link PAN with Aadhaar or having an invalid/inoperative PAN will result in TDS at a higher rate of 20% as per Section 206AA of the IT Act. * To claim tax exemption or a lower TDS rate, eligible shareholders must submit the required forms (Form 15G/15H for residents, Form 10F/Self Declaration for non-residents, and other relevant documents) by September 9, 2025 (5:00 p.m.). * Documents must be uploaded through the designated online portal (https://web.in.mpms.mufg.com/formsreg/submission-of-form-15g-15h.html); no documents will be accepted after the deadline.
