Voltas urges shareholders to update KYC, claim unpaid dividends
Voltas Limited is running a campaign to encourage shareholders to update KYC details and claim unpaid dividends. Dividends from FY 2018-19 and associated shares will be transferred to IEPF on September 9, 2026. Shareholders must claim these by August 21, 2026. KYC updates are required for electronic dividend payments.
This is a standard communication for shareholder compliance and unclaimed dividend recovery. It does not involve any new business initiatives, financial results, or corporate actions that would significantly impact the company's operations or stock price.
The announcement is a routine communication to shareholders regarding KYC updates and unclaimed dividends, which is a standard compliance activity. It does not contain any new financial performance data or strategic changes that would indicate a positive or negative sentiment.
Voltas Limited is urging its shareholders to update their Know Your Customer (KYC) details and claim any unpaid or unclaimed dividends. This initiative is part of the company's second Saksham Niveshak Campaign, launched on April 1, 2026, under the directions of the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA).
The company strongly encourages shareholders with unpaid/unclaimed dividends to complete their KYC and claim their dues before their shares or dividends are transferred to the IEPF.
Specifically, dividends declared for the financial year 2018-19, along with the corresponding shares, are scheduled for transfer to the IEPF on September 9, 2026. Shareholders are advised to claim these unpaid/unclaimed dividends on or before August 21, 2026, to prevent such a transfer.
As dividends are payable only in electronic mode, all shareholders are requested to update their KYC details. For shares held in demat form, shareholders should contact their respective Depository Participant (DP). For shares held in physical form, shareholders need to download the KYC updation form from the provided weblink (https://web.in.mpms.mufg.com/KYC-downloads.html) or by scanning the QR code. The duly filled and signed form, along with KYC documents, should be submitted to the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent, MUFG Intime India Private Limited, at their Mumbai office.
