Governance is a crucial, no matter the size, the scope, the product or the service, the role of governance is really at the backbone of what makes your company tick. Why?

Pursuant to Regulation 34 read with Schedule V of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 a Report on Corporate Governance is as follows:
Governance is a crucial, no matter the size, the scope, the product or the service, the role of governance is really at the backbone of what makes your company tick. Why? Because the idea of governance speaks to the core of how your business functions. Regardless of the sales, negotiations, profits or pricing, the company’s relationship to governance is really a mirror for how well your organization is run.
Thus, it is a key element in your company’s investment story. Directors, employees, investors and potential clients all want to know they are spending their time, energy and resources on an organization that values sound business practices and that creates an ethical corporate culture. Forward-thinking governance can be a powerful tool for change and a distinct differentiating factor between you and your competition.
Given the currency good governance carries within the business environment, one might expect it to be a larger part of the Mirza International Ltd.’s overall story, highlighted within such communications as the annual report. Our goal is to promote and protect the long-term interest of all stakeholders and to that end our philosophy of Corporate Governance is built on a foundation of ethical and transparent business operations and is designed to inspire trust among all stakeholders, strengthen the Board and management accountability.

The Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) on July 8, 2016 has notified the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) (Second Amendment) Regulations, 2016 (Regulations).
Vide these Regulations, SEBI has inserted Regulation 43A after Regulation 43 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, which requires top five hundred listed companies (based on market capitalization of every financial year) to formulate a Dividend Distribution Policy, which shall be disclosed in its Annual Report and on its website.
However, listed entities other than top five hundred listed entities based on market capitalization may disclose their dividend distribution policies on a voluntary basis in their annual reports and on their websites.
Mirza International Limited (the “Company”) though not fall under the list of the top five hundred listed companies as per the criteria mentioned above, but as a measure of good Corporate Governance initiative, the Company has approved and adopted this Dividend Distribution Policy (the “Policy”) at its meeting held on May 30, 2017, being the effective date of the Policy.
The intent of the Policy is to broadly specify the external and internal factors including financial parameters that shall be considered while declaring dividend and the circumstances under which the shareholders of the Company may or may not expect dividend and how the retained earnings shall be utilized, etc.
The Policy shall not apply to:
The Policy is not an alternative to the decision of the Board for recommending dividend, which is made every year after taking into consideration all the relevant circumstances enumerated hereunder or other factors as may be decided as relevant by the Board.
The Company is deeply committed to driving superior value creation for all its stakeholders. The focus will continue to be on sustainable returns, through an appropriate capital strategy for both medium term and longer term value creation. Accordingly, the Board would continue to adopt a progressive and dynamic dividend policy, ensuring the immediate as well as long term needs of the business.
Dividend represents the profit of the Company, which is distributed to shareholders in proportion to the amount paid-up on shares they hold. Dividend includes Interim Dividend.
The Board will assess the Company’s financial requirements, including present and future organic and inorganic growth opportunities and other relevant factors (as mentioned elsewhere in this policy) and declare Dividend in any financial year.
The Dividend for any financial year shall normally be paid out of the Company profits for that year. This will be arrived at after providing for depreciation in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. If circumstances require, the Board may also declare dividend out of accumulated profits of any previous financial year(s) in accordance with provisions of the Act and Regulations, as applicable.
The Board may declare one or more Interim Dividends during the year. Additionally, the Board may recommend Final Dividend for the approval of the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. The date of the Board meeting in which the Dividend proposal will be considered, will be provided to the stock exchanges, as required by Listing Regulations.
Within these parameters, the Company would endeavor to maintain a total dividend pay-out ratio in the range of 15 to 20% of the profit after tax of the company excluding Dividend Distribution Tax.
Subject to applicable regulations, the Company’s retained earnings shall be applied for:
The Board is authorized to change/amend this policy from time to time at its sole discretion and/or in pursuance of any amendments made in the Companies Act, 2013, the Regulations, etc.
This document does not solicit investments in the Company’s securities. Nor is it an assurance of guaranteed returns (in any form), for investments in the Company’s equity shares.
