RVNL Publishes Newspaper Notice for Unpaid Dividend and Share Transfer to IEPF Authority
RVNL has issued a notice regarding the transfer of unpaid dividends and equity shares to the IEPF Authority. Shareholders have until October 5, 2026, to claim their unpaid dividends for FY2018-19. Failure to do so will result in the transfer of shares to the IEPF Authority.
This is a standard regulatory compliance procedure for unclaimed dividends and shares. It does not have a direct material impact on the company's ongoing operations or financial performance.
The announcement is a routine regulatory filing regarding the transfer of unclaimed dividends and shares to the IEPF Authority, as mandated by law. It does not contain any new financial information or business developments that would positively or negatively impact the company's outlook.
Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has published a newspaper notice in compliance with Regulation 30 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The notice, published on July 15, 2026, informs shareholders about the transfer of unpaid dividends and equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Authority.
In accordance with Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, and the IEPF Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016, equity shares with unpaid or unclaimed dividends for seven consecutive years or more are required to be transferred to the IEPF Authority's Demat Account. The details of these unpaid/unclaimed dividends are available on RVNL's website. Individual communications have been sent to the concerned shareholders, notifying them that their equity shares are liable for transfer to the IEPF Authority unless the final unpaid/unclaimed dividend for FY2018-19 is claimed within the prescribed timeline.
Shareholders are requested to submit their claims on or before October 5, 2026. If no valid claim is received by this date, RVNL will transfer the concerned equity shares to the IEPF Authority's Demat Account within 30 days, without further notice. Upon such transfer, no claim will lie against the company in respect of the dividends or shares transferred to the IEPF Authority. Any future benefits arising from these shares will also accrue to the IEPF Authority. However, shareholders can claim the transferred shares and dividends from the IEPF Authority by following the prescribed procedure.
