What the company has told the exchanges

Vedanta Ltd has given notice that a meeting of its Board of Directors is proposed to be scheduled on Thursday, October 08, 2026. The stated purpose is to consider and approve the First Interim Dividend on equity shares, if any, for the Financial Year 2026-27.

Key points at a glance

• Board meeting proposed to be scheduled on Thursday, October 08, 2026.
• Agenda: First Interim Dividend on equity shares, if any, for FY 2026-27.
• Record date fixed as Wednesday, October 14, 2026, for determining the entitlement of equity shareholders to the said dividend, if declared.
• Trading window to remain closed for all designated persons till the expiry of 48 hours after the declaration of the unaudited financial results for the second quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026.

What a record date means

The record date is the cut-off date used to decide who is eligible. If the dividend is declared at the Board meeting, shareholders whose names appear in the company's records on the record date would be considered for the payout. Because settlement takes time, purchases need to be completed before the ex-date, which the exchange sets based on the record date.

What to keep in mind

The update uses the words proposed to be scheduled for the Board meeting and if any for the dividend. What the Board finally decides on October 08, 2026, including the amount of any dividend, would come out in a separate communication after that meeting. Until then, this notice only sets out the proposed meeting and the record date.

The trading window closure applies to designated persons under the company's insider trading code and is separate from the dividend decision itself.

Where this fits

Interim dividend announcements are typically watched by income-focused shareholders because they indicate a possible cash payout during the year, ahead of the final dividend for the financial year. The actual entitlement depends on the Board's decision and on holding the shares on the record date.
