Bharti Airtel has announced the record date for its proposed final dividend for the financial year 2025-26. Investors who want to receive the dividend should take note of this important date.
Earlier, the company’s Board of Directors had recommended a final dividend of Rs 24 per share, which is now awaiting shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM).
July 24 Is the Record Date
Bharti Airtel has fixed Friday, July 24, 2026, as the record date to determine which shareholders will be eligible for the final dividend.
The company has proposed:
Rs 24 per fully paid-up equity share with a face value of Rs 5.
Rs 6 per partly paid-up equity share with a face value of Rs 5, where only Rs 1.25 per share has been paid and the remaining call money is still pending.
Only shareholders whose names appear in the company’s records on the record date will be eligible to receive the dividend, subject to approval.
