KEC International advises shareholders to update KYC and claim unclaimed dividends
KEC International initiated a 100-day campaign, "Saksham Niveshak," ending November 6, 2025, urging shareholders to update KYC and claim unclaimed dividends to prevent transfer to IEPFA.
The announcement has a medium impact as it directly affects a segment of shareholders by helping them safeguard their investments and comply with regulations. While not directly financial for the company, it enhances investor relations and compliance adherence.
The company is taking a proactive and shareholder-friendly initiative to help investors update their KYC details and claim unclaimed dividends, preventing potential loss of assets to the IEPFA. This demonstrates good corporate governance.
KEC International Limited has proactively launched the "Saksham Niveshak" 100-day campaign, running from July 28, 2025, to November 06, 2025, in line with a circular dated July 16, 2025, issued by the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA). * The campaign aims to facilitate shareholders in updating their Know Your Customer (KYC) details, including bank account mandates, nominee registration, and contact information (email, mobile number, and address). * It also encourages shareholders to claim their unclaimed dividends from the financial year 2018-19 onwards, preventing their dividend amounts and corresponding shares from being transferred to the IEPFA. * For shares held in Demat form, shareholders must update KYC with their Depository Participant and submit a self-attested copy of the updated Client Master List to the Company's RTA, MUFG Intime India Private Limited. * For shares held in Physical form, shareholders need to download and submit KYC updation forms (ISR-1, ISR-2, ISR-3, SH-13, SH-14) from the RTA's website, along with supporting documents, to the Company’s RTA. * The company emphasizes that dividends unclaimed for seven consecutive years and corresponding shares are liable to be transferred to the IEPFA. * Shareholders requiring assistance can contact MUFG Intime India Private Limited.
