profit or loss on sale of fixed assets is added back to net profit because it relates to the investing activity (sale of fixed asset).
Dividend paid to shareholders is not an operating activity. It is financing activity. Hence it will be shown under Cash flows from Financing Activities.
In your query you have asked about dividend payable. Dividend payable is directly appropriated from reserves and is not routed through p&l. The impact of the same is captured in CFS in the movement in working capital.
