17 May 2016 Do you mean to say auditor will finalise
The accounts & its report and same will
Be present to board of directors in AGM
Then directors will approve the same or
Weather they want to declare dividend if
they want after that the accounts would be
Fully finalised and all the statotory due will
Be paid like IT, DDT etc,

Is this correct point of view.....
