The campaign is initiated following a request from the Investor's Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Its purpose is to reach out to shareholders whose dividends remain unpaid or unclaimed.
The campaign period runs from 1st April 2026 to 9th July 2026. The primary objective is to create awareness among shareholders to update their details and claim any unpaid or unclaimed dividends before they get transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF).
Shareholders are urged to update the following details with the Company or the Registrar & Transfer Agent, Bigshare Services Private Limited:
- PAN
- Nomination details
- Contact information (postal address, mobile number)
- Bank account details
- Specimen signature
Since dividends are payable only through electronic mode, the amount will be credited to the shareholder's bank account only after the required information/documents are updated. Physical shareholders are requested to complete their KYC updates accordingly.
Required forms and their submission modes are as follows:
- Form ISR-1: Filled and signed, with self-attested KYC documents.
- Form ISR-2: Filled and signed, with banker's attestation of signature and original cancelled cheque or self-attested bank passbook/statement.
- Form SH-13: For adding a nominee.
- Form ISR-3: To opt out of nomination.
These forms can be downloaded from Bigshare's resources page or the Company's website at https://www.walchandpeoplefirst.com/investor-relations.
Submission can be made by:
- Post: Office No S6-2, 6th Floor Pinnacle Business Park, next to Ahura Centre, Mahakali Caves Road, Andheri (East), Mumbai – 400093, Maharashtra
- Online Portal: https://www.bigshareonline.com/
Shareholders holding shares in electronic form who have not claimed their dividend can claim it by updating/modifying their details with their respective Depository Participants (DPs).
The Company will subsequently send letters/emails to shareholders with details about their unpaid dividend and the process for claiming it. Shareholders are requested to approach the Company/RTA to claim such dividends to avoid transfer to the IEPF authority.
