As per clause 20(a)of the listing agreement, the listed company shall disclose all dividends and/or cash bonuses recommended or declared or the decision to pass any dividend or interest payment. It requires only quantum of dividend declared(per share basis) to be intimated, not the date of payment thereof. |

Charu seems to have deeper knowledge
Date is basic thing, It has to be mentioned. How does the Stock Exchange Officials and other stake holders will come to know about the date, if is not mentioned??
They are not god and they don’t have time to find out the date from previous records, because ur company alone is not listed.
Mentioning the date is basic thing, that doesn’t require provision of the law. Interpret the law in common parlance.

The company will have to inform to the stock exchange about the outcome of the Board Meeting in which the dividend has been recommended within 15 minutes of the closure of Board Meeting.
The company shall have to disclose following:-
Decision of recommendation of Dividend
Quantum of dividend (per share basis)
Date of payment of Dividend.
Earlier an 21 days advance notice before the dividend payment date about the date of dividend payment was to be submitted to the stock exchange but now this requirement has been taken away.
