Over 1 billion shares, estimated to be worth about ₹1 lakh crore, along with unclaimed dividends of ₹6,000–7,000 crore, are presently held by the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA).
If dividends on shares remain unpaid or unclaimed for 7 consecutive years, the company is required to transfer both the unpaid and unclaimed amounts of dividend and the corresponding shares to the IEPF. This may be due to a change in address, or simply because the shares were forgotten by shareholders, claimants or legal heirs over a period of time. We provide end-to-end assistance in recovering such shares and dividends, transferred to IEPF.
