For declaring dividend ICSI has issued an SS-3 and coording to it:
Dividend should be declared only at an Annual General
Meeting.
Dividend should relate to a financial year and should be declared
by the Members at the Annual General Meeting of the company
after consideration of the balance sheet and profit and loss
account. Members may declare a lower rate of Dividend than
what is recommended by the Board but have no power to
increase the amount or rate of Dividend recommended by the Board.
