GP Petroleums Launches 'Saksham Niveshak' Campaign for Unclaimed Dividends
GP Petroleums launched the 'Saksham Niveshak' campaign to help shareholders claim unpaid dividends. The initiative targets 602 shareholders with dividends from FY19 and FY20 remaining unclaimed. Shareholders must update KYC and bank details to receive payments and avoid shares being transferred to IEPF after 7 years.
This is an investor education initiative and a standard compliance-related communication. It does not involve any new business, financial, or strategic developments that would materially affect the company's operations or market position.
The announcement is a routine communication regarding investor education and unclaimed dividends. It does not contain any new financial performance data or strategic decisions that would significantly impact the company's stock price.
GP Petroleums Limited has initiated the second phase of its 100-day campaign, 'Saksham Niveshak,' aimed at reaching shareholders with unpaid or unclaimed dividends. The campaign seeks to create awareness and encourage these shareholders to update their details and claim their dividends before they are transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF).
The company has communicated via email and post to 602 affected shareholders. This initiative aligns with the IEPF Authority's broader drive for investor education and facilitation, referencing provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, and SEBI's master circulars. Shareholders holding shares in dematerialized form are urged to update their KYC details, nomination, bank account information, and email IDs with their Depository Participant (DP) to ensure electronic dividend credit. Shareholders with unclaimed dividends or incomplete KYC are advised to contact the company's Registrar and Transfer Agent, MUFG Intime India Private Limited. It is crucial to note that equity shares associated with unclaimed dividends for seven consecutive years will be transferred to the IEPF, and claims can be made by filing e-form IEPF-5.
The communication also emphasizes the mandatory update of PAN, KYC details, and nomination for holders of physical securities, providing a list of requisite forms (ISR-1, ISR-2, ISR-3, SH-13, SH-14) available on the company's and RTA's websites. Failure to update these details may impact the electronic credit of future dividends.
