Dividend is paid to its members those who are holding shares in the company and not to directors or promoters. Therefore, if dividend is declared then it is paid to members only. If directors are also holding shares then in that case they are also treated as members and they are paid dividend at the same time.

Dividend is the right of the shareholders of the company may those be promoters or not. No distinction can be made thereto.
