Skipper Limited has issued a communication regarding the deduction of tax at source (TDS) on dividends for the Financial Year 2025-26. The Board of Directors, in a meeting held on April 28, 2026, recommended a dividend of ₹0.10 per equity share. This dividend, if approved at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) scheduled for September 15, 2026, will be paid to shareholders on record as of September 8, 2026.
The company detailed the TDS provisions under the Income Tax Act, 2025, applicable to both resident and non-resident shareholders. For resident shareholders, TDS will be deducted at 10% if PAN is valid, and 20% if PAN is invalid or not linked with Aadhaar. Exemptions may apply for resident individuals with total dividend income not exceeding ₹10,000, or upon submission of Form 121 or an exemption certificate. Specific documentation requirements are outlined for various resident non-individual categories like insurance companies, mutual funds, and AIFs.
Non-resident shareholders will generally face a 20% withholding tax (plus surcharge and cess), which can be reduced if they provide a lower withholding certificate or avail benefits under a Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) by submitting necessary documents, including a Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) and e-filed Form 41. Shareholders are urged to ensure their PAN, residential status, and other KYC details are updated with their depository participants or the RTA by the cut-off date of September 8, 2026, to ensure correct TDS application and avoid dividend withholding. All required documents for TDS purposes must be submitted via the provided link by September 8, 2026.
