Cholamandalam Investment to Transfer Shares to IEPF Account
Cholamandalam Investment will transfer shares with unpaid dividends for seven years to the IEPF Demat Account. The due date for transfer related to the FY 2018-19 dividend is September 3, 2026. Members must submit documents by August 17, 2026, to claim their shares and dividends.
This is a standard regulatory procedure for companies with unclaimed dividends and shares. While it involves a transfer of assets, it does not directly impact the company's operational performance or financial results in the short term.
The announcement is a regulatory compliance filing regarding the transfer of shares to the IEPF due to unclaimed dividends. It is a procedural matter with no immediate financial impact on the company's performance.
Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Limited has announced the proposed transfer of equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Demat Account.
This action is in accordance with Regulation 47 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, and the IEPF (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016. Shares for which dividends have not been paid or claimed for seven consecutive years or more are subject to transfer to the IEPF Authority's demat account.
The final dividend declared for the financial year 2018-19 has a due date for share transfer to the IEPF on September 3, 2026. The company is sending individual communications to concerned members whose shares are liable for transfer, advising them to claim their dividends. Details of these members, including folio number, DP ID, and Client ID, along with the equity shares due for transfer, have been uploaded on the company's website for verification. If the company or its Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA), KFin Technologies Limited, does not receive the required documents by August 17, 2026, the shares will be transferred to the IEPF without further notice.
Members are informed that both unclaimed dividends and shares transferred to the IEPF can be claimed from the IEPF Authority following the prescribed procedure. Shareholders are also requested to update their KYC details with the RTA or their Depository Participant. The company advises members to dematerialize shares held in physical form to mitigate risks and avail benefits of dematerialization, as all requests for transfer of securities will be processed only in dematerialized form.
