Deepak Fertilisers Reminds Shareholders of Compulsory IEPF Share Transfer
Deepak Fertilisers is reminding shareholders about the compulsory transfer of shares linked to unclaimed dividends to the IEPF. Shareholders must claim their dues and shares by August 31, 2026. Failure to act will lead to the transfer of shares and unclaimed dividends to the IEPF authority as per the Companies Act, 2013.
This is a routine compliance-related communication to a specific set of shareholders and is unlikely to have a significant impact on the overall company operations or market perception.
The announcement is a procedural reminder regarding regulatory compliance for unclaimed dividends and shares. It does not contain information that would positively or negatively impact the company's financial performance or stock value.
Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation Limited has issued a reminder to shareholders whose dividends remain unpaid or unclaimed for seven or more consecutive years. These shareholders are liable to have their shares transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) authority as per Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013.
The company has sent a reminder letter to the respective shareholders, detailing the process and the legal framework governing this transfer. The reminder highlights that dividends declared and paid for the financial year 2018-19 and onwards, if unclaimed, are subject to transfer to the IEPF after a period of seven years.
Shareholders are urged to claim their unpaid dividends and shares by approaching KFin Technologies Ltd., the Company's Registrar and Transfer Agents (RTA). They must submit necessary documents, including self-attested copies of PAN card, address proof, a cancelled cheque, and a duly filled application-cum-undertaking. The deadline for submission is 31st August, 2026. Failure to do so will result in the transfer of unclaimed dividends and associated shares to the IEPF Account.
The company also advises shareholders to update their KYC details, including PAN, contact information, and bank account details, with the RTA or the Company to facilitate dividend remittance. For shares held in physical form, original share certificates will be cancelled and new ones issued for dematerialization and transfer to IEPF. For shares held in electronic mode, the demat account will be debited through a corporate action. The announcement also encourages shareholders holding physical share certificates to dematerialize them to avail benefits like liquidity and ease of trading. The confirmation of dispatch for this reminder letter was received from KFin Technologies Ltd. at 9:16 AM on 28th May, 2026.
