GIC Housing Finance Publishes Newspaper Notice on Share Transfer and Investor Campaign
GIC Housing Finance has published notices regarding a special window for transferring and dematerializing physical shares, open until February 04, 2027. Additionally, the company is participating in the 'SAKSHAM NIVESHAK' campaign from April 01, 2026, to July 09, 2026, to help shareholders update KYC and claim unclaimed dividends.
The announcement concerns procedural matters for shareholders regarding physical share dematerialization and KYC updates. These are standard operational communications and are unlikely to have a significant impact on the company's stock price or business operations.
The announcement is a routine regulatory filing informing shareholders about ongoing initiatives related to share transfer and investor awareness campaigns. It does not contain any financial performance data or significant corporate actions that would strongly influence sentiment.
GIC Housing Finance Limited has published notices in the Financial Express and Loksatta newspapers on April 30, 2026, regarding two key initiatives. The first pertains to a 'Special Window for Transfer and Dematerialisation of Physical Shares,' operating from February 06, 2026, to February 04, 2027. This window is for investors who purchased physical shares before April 01, 2019, and had not lodged them for transfer or whose transfer requests were rejected. Shareholders are required to submit original share certificates, transfer deeds executed before April 01, 2019, proof of purchase, KYC documents, and a recent Client Master List to the company's Registrar and Transfer Agent, KFIN Technologies Limited. Shares transferred under this window will be under a one-year lock-in period from the date of transfer registration.
The second initiative is the Second IEPF 'SAKSHAM NIVESHAK' 100-Days Campaign, running from April 01, 2026, to July 09, 2026. This campaign, initiated by the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), aims to reach shareholders with unpaid or unclaimed dividends and/or incomplete Know Your Customer (KYC) details. Shareholders are urged to update their KYC information (PAN, bank details, nomination) and claim any outstanding dividends before they are transferred to the IEPF. Instructions for updating KYC for shares held in demat and physical forms are provided, directing shareholders to either their Depository Participant or KFIN Technologies Limited respectively. Details of KYC non-compliant cases are also available on the company's website.
