Key Event and Deadline
The unclaimed dividend amounts for the financial year 2018-19 (Dividend 2019) are due for transfer to the IEPF on August 22, 2026, in accordance with Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016. The underlying shares on which this dividend was unclaimed for seven consecutive years will also be transferred to the DEMAT account of the IEPF Authority.
Process for Share Transfer
- For shareholders holding shares in physical form, the Company will issue new share certificate(s) to facilitate the transfer to IEPF. The original share certificates will be automatically cancelled and deemed non-negotiable.
