You need to have the kapt processor in build.gradle:

kapt {
    generateStubs = true
}

dependencies {
    ...
    compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"
    compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0.2'
    kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0.2'
    ...
}

This extension will generate the code for dagger.

Additionally, for newer gradle versions, you can also apply the plugin in your build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

dependencies {
    ...
    compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"
    compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0.2'
    kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0.2'
    ...
}
