According to Section 115-0

(a) declaration of dividend; or

(b) distribution of any dividend; or

(c) payment of any dividend,

whichever is earliest.

In the present Eg:

Dividend was approved in July and paid in Sept. so DDT is to be paid within 14 days from the date of declaration/ approval (july)
