TCS Reminds Shareholders to Claim Unclaimed Dividends by August 8, 2026
TCS reminds shareholders to claim unclaimed dividends for the First Interim Dividend 2019-20 by August 8, 2026. Failure to claim will result in the transfer of shares and unclaimed dividends to the IEPF. Shareholders can find details on the TCS website.
This is a standard regulatory process for unclaimed dividends and shares and does not represent a new business development or a significant financial event for TCS.
The announcement is a routine regulatory compliance communication regarding unclaimed dividends and shares, with no direct financial impact or positive/negative news for the company.
Tata Consultancy Services Limited (TCS) has issued a reminder to its shareholders regarding the transfer of unclaimed dividends and equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Authority. This action is in compliance with Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, and the related rules.
The company has published notices in Business Standard, Free Press Journal, and Navshakti, and has also sent individual communications to shareholders whose dividends have remained unclaimed for seven consecutive years. These shareholders have until August 8, 2026, to claim their First Interim Dividend for the 2019-20 financial year.
If the dividends are not claimed by the deadline, TCS will initiate the transfer of shares held by these shareholders to the IEPF. For shares held in physical form, new share certificates will be issued and transferred to IEPF, with original certificates being cancelled. For shares held in demat form, the company will inform the depository to transfer the shares from the shareholder's demat account to IEPF.
Shareholders can find detailed information on claiming their dividends and shares, as well as the procedure for claiming them after transfer to IEPF, on the TCS website (www.tcs.com) and the MUFG Intime India Private Limited (formerly Link Intime India Private Limited) website. Queries can be directed to MUFG Intime India Private Limited.
