PAYMENT OF CASH DIVIDEND THROUGH ELECTRONIC MODE

Pursuant to the requirement of the Companies Act, 2017 and the Companies (Distribution of Dividends) Regulations, 2017, a listed company is required to pay cash dividends to the shareholders only through electronic mode directly in to the bank accounts designated by the shareholders. Thus, it is mandatory for shareholders to provide their bank account details including the name of their bank, address of bank branch and International Bank Account Number (IBAN) to receive their cash dividend amount directly in to their bank accounts.

The following information should be provided to enable electronic transfer of dividend to designated bank accounts:

SUBMISSION OF COPIES OF VALID CNICS/NTN:

Members are requested to submit a copy of their valid CNICs/NTN Certificates along with the folio numbers to the Company's Share Registrar, if not already provided, otherwise payment of dividend would be withheld in terms of section 243 of the Companies Act, 2017 ('the Act') and clause 6 of the Companies (Distribution of Dividends) Regulations, 2017 (the Regulations").

DEDUCTION OF INCOME TAX UNDER SECTION 150 OF THE INCOME TAX ORDINANCE. 2001

The rate of deduction of income tax under Section 150 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, from payment of dividend to a NON-FILER of income tax return is prescribed as 30% and for FILER of Tax Returns as 15%. List of Filers is available at Federal Board of Revenue's (FBR) website: http://www.fbr.gov.pk. Members are therefore advised to update their tax FILER status before the commencement of book closure.

With-holding tax will be determined separately on 'Filer/Non-Filer' status of Principal shareholder as well as joint-holder(s) based on their shareholding proportions, in case of joint accounts. In this regard all shareholders who hold shares jointly are requested to provide shareholding proportions of Principal shareholder and Joint-holder(s) in respect of shares held by them to our Share Registrar, in writing as follows:

The required information must reach our Share Registrar before the commencement of book closure; otherwise, it will be assumed that the shares are equally held by Principal shareholder and Joint Holder(s).

The corporate shareholders having CDC accounts are required to have their National Tax Number (NTN) updated with their respective participants, whereas corporate physical shareholders should send a copy of their NTN certificate to the company or Share Registrar. The shareholders while sending NTN or NTN certificates, as the case may be, must quote company name and their respective folio numbers.

Members seeking exemption from deduction of income tax or deduction at a reduced rate under the relevant provisions of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, are requested to submit a valid tax certificate or necessary documentary evidence, as the case may be, before the commencement of book closure.
