Results approved
Along with the dividend, the Board approved the audited consolidated and standalone financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026, and the audited financial statements prepared under Indian Accounting Standards and IFRS. The auditor's report on the consolidated results carries an unmodified opinion.

Employee stock and share allotment
- The Board approved the grant of 9,640 Restricted Stock Units under the 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan to eligible employees, based on the Nomination and Remuneration Committee's recommendation. These units vest equally over three years, are granted with effect from November 1, 2026, and carry an exercise price equal to the par value of the share.

What a retail shareholder can take away
- The dividend is a cash return paid for every equity share held on the record date. The amount declared is ₹ 26/- per equity share; the actual credit depends on the shares held on that date.
- The quarterly numbers show the consolidated revenue and profit figures reported for the three months, and the margin and per-share earnings that go with them.
- The stock unit grant and the share allotment relate to employee compensation plans. They are separate from the dividend decision and are disclosed as part of the same board meeting outcome.
- All of the above were transacted at the Board meeting held on October 22-23, 2026 and intimated to the stock exchanges.
