Bengal & Assam Company Ltd has fixed 22 September 2025 as the record date for determining shareholders eligible to receive a dividend of Rs. 50 per equity share (face value Rs. 10), equating to a 500% dividend. The dividend was recommended by the Board for the financial year ended 31 March 2025 and is subject to approval at the AGM scheduled on 29 September 2025. Payment is expected within three to four weeks from the AGM date to shareholders on record as of 22 September 2025. The company has informed BSE, NSDL, CDSL, and its registrar Alankit Assignments about the record date.
This is a very high dividend payout (500% on face value of Rs. 10), which is unusually generous and likely to be well-received by shareholders. The stock may see buying interest ahead of the record date, though investors should note the dividend is still subject to shareholder approval at the AGM.
