RCF Board Recommends Final Dividend of ₹1.32 per Share for FY25; Announces TDS Details
The announcement has a medium impact as it involves a dividend recommendation, which directly affects shareholder returns. The detailed TDS information is crucial for shareholders to understand their tax obligations and potential net dividend income.
The announcement communicates the recommendation of a final dividend, which is positive for shareholders. However, the core content is a procedural update on tax deduction at source (TDS) for this dividend, detailing compliance requirements, which is a neutral regulatory matter.
Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Limited (RCF) announced that its Board of Directors, at a meeting held on May 27, 2025, recommended a Final Dividend of ₹1.32 per Equity Share of ₹10/- each (13.20%) for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2025. This recommendation is subject to the approval of shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
Key details regarding the deduction of tax at source (TDS) on this final dividend include: * As per the Income Tax Act, 1961, dividends are taxable in the hands of shareholders, and the company will deduct TDS at applicable rates. * Resident Shareholders: * For resident individual shareholders, if the total dividend income in FY 2025-26 exceeds ₹10,000, a 10% TDS will apply if PAN is provided, or 20% if PAN is not provided or inoperative. * NIL TDS will apply if the total dividend income is less than ₹10,000, or if eligible shareholders submit Form 15G/15H. * Certain entities like specified Insurance Companies, Government Corporations, and Mutual Funds (under Section 10(23D)) can claim NIL TDS by submitting required declarations. * Non-Resident Shareholders: * Tax will be withheld at 20% (plus applicable surcharge and cess). * Non-resident shareholders can opt for a lower rate as per a Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) by submitting specific documents, including a PAN card (if any), Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) for FY 2025-26, electronic Form 10F for FY 2025-26, and a self-declaration. * Shareholders must submit all necessary documents (e.g., Form 15G/15H/10F) through Link Intime's website by Friday, October 10, 2025, to ensure appropriate TDS/Withholding Tax determination and deduction. * Incomplete, unsigned, or late submissions will not be considered. * TDS certificates will be emailed to registered IDs after dividend payment, and the credit will be visible in Form 26AS.
