In the matter of payment of dividend or not in any financial year irrespective of the profit earned by a company in the financial year is left to the discretion of the Board to recommend or not to recommend dividend for any year. If the Board does not recommend any dividend, the company in general meeting cannot consider and approve any dividend for payment. The company in general meeting cannot also increase the rate of dividend recommended by the Board.

Since the director's recommendation of dividend is only a proposal, it can be withdrawn by the Board before it is included in the notice for the annual general meeting.
