Rane (Madras) Limited Notifies Shareholders of Compulsory Share Transfer to IEPF
Rane (Madras) Limited is transferring unpaid/unclaimed shares to IEPF. Shareholders must claim by August 30, 2026 (RML) and August 31, 2026 (erstwhile RBL). Failure to do so will result in transfer to IEPF, though claims can still be made thereafter.
This is a standard procedure for unclaimed shares and dividends, unlikely to have a significant impact on the company's operations or market standing. It primarily affects a small group of shareholders with unclaimed dividends.
The announcement is a routine regulatory compliance regarding the transfer of unclaimed shares to the IEPF. It does not contain any positive or negative financial or business performance information.
Rane (Madras) Limited has issued a notice to its shareholders regarding the compulsory transfer of equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPF). This action is in accordance with Rule 6 of the IEPF Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016.
The shares are subject to transfer if dividends have remained unpaid or unclaimed by the shareholder for seven consecutive years or more. This includes dividends for FY2018-2019 for Rane (Madras) Limited and the erstwhile Rane Brake Lining Limited, which was amalgamated with RML effective April 7, 2025.
Shareholders are urged to claim their unpaid dividends and shares before August 30, 2026 (for RML) and August 31, 2026 (for erstwhile RBL). Individual communications have been sent to concerned shareholders, and details are also available on the company's website, www.ranegroup.com. After these dates, the company will proceed with the transfer of shares to IEPF without further notice.
Shareholders can claim their dividend and/or shares by submitting an online application (IEPF-5) on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website (www.mca.gov.in) and sending a signed physical copy to the company, along with the IEPF-5 acknowledgement and requisite documents. Queries can be directed to the company's Registrar and Transfer Agent.
