The meeting will be conducted virtually via video conferencing (VC) and other audio-visual means (OAVM), as per the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).

Key Filing Announcement

In an official filing to the stock exchanges on Saturday, August 2, 2025, JFSL disclosed important dates associated with the AGM, including those related to dividend eligibility and voting rights.

Record and Cut-off Dates Announced

JFSL has fixed Monday, August 11, 2025, as the Record Date for determining the shareholders eligible to receive a dividend for the financial year 2024–25.
Should a dividend be declared during the AGM, it will be disbursed within a week following the conclusion of the meeting.

Additionally, Thursday, August 21, 2025, has been announced as the Cut-off Date for the purpose of determining members who will be eligible to vote on the resolutions listed in the Notice of the AGM.

A Milestone Event Post-Listing

This AGM will be the company’s second since its listing, marking another significant step in its journey as a standalone financial services entity after being demerged from Reliance Industries.

Promoter Group to Inject ₹15,825 Crore via Preferential Issue

In a major development ahead of the AGM, Jio Financial Services also revealed on July 31, 2025, that its promoter group, led by RIL Chairman Mukesh Ambani, will inject ₹15,825 crore into the company.

This capital infusion will be executed through a preferential issue of convertible warrants, significantly strengthening the firm’s balance sheet.

Post-infusion, the promoter group is expected to hold over 51% stake in JFSL, giving them majority control in the company. The move reflects strategic intent to bolster the company’s financial capabilities and long-term vision.
