Bengal & Assam Company Ltd will hold its 78th Annual General Meeting on Monday, 29th September 2025 at 3:00 PM via Video Conferencing (VC)/Other Audio Visual Means (OAVM). Ordinary business includes adoption of audited standalone and consolidated financial statements for FY 2024-25, declaration of a dividend of Rs. 50 per equity share (500% on face value of Rs. 10), and re-appointment of Shri Ashok Kumar Kinra as Director (retiring by rotation). Special business includes the appointment of Shri Namo Narain Agarwal as Secretarial Auditor for five consecutive years (FY 2025-26 to FY 2029-30) at Rs. 60,000 per annum, and appointment of Shri Mudit Kumar as Independent Director for a five-year term effective 13th August 2025. The cut-off/record date for e-voting and dividend eligibility is 22nd September 2025, with remote e-voting open from 26th to 28th September 2025. Share transfer books and register of members will remain closed from 23rd to 29th September 2025.
The proposed 500% dividend is a meaningful payout for shareholders and a positive signal of company performance. The director and auditor appointments are routine governance matters and unlikely to move the stock, though investors should note the book closure window during which share transfers will not be processed.
