Zydus Lifesciences Notifies Shareholders About Unclaimed Shares Transfer to IEPF
Zydus Lifesciences is transferring unclaimed shares and dividends to the IEPF by August 15, 2026. Shareholders who haven't claimed dividends for seven consecutive years are notified. Claims can be made via IEPF-5 form on the MCA website.
This is a standard regulatory compliance procedure and is unlikely to have a significant impact on the company's operations or stock performance.
The announcement is a routine regulatory filing regarding the transfer of unclaimed shares to the IEPF, which is a standard procedure and does not inherently indicate positive or negative performance for the company.
Zydus Lifesciences Limited has published a newspaper advertisement regarding the transfer of shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF). This action is in accordance with Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, and the IEPF Authority (Accounting, Audit, and Transfer) Rules, 2016.
Specifically, the company is required to transfer shares for which dividends have remained unpaid or unclaimed by shareholders for seven consecutive years to the IEPF. Zydus Lifesciences has uploaded the details of these shareholders and shares on its website under the Investor Corner. Notices have been dispatched to all concerned shareholders at their registered addresses, providing complete details of the shares and unclaimed dividends.
Shareholders who have not claimed their dividend for seven consecutive years in the financial year 2018-2019 can contact the Company or its Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA), MUFG Investor Services India Private Limited, on or before August 15, 2026. They must sign as per their specimen signature registered with the Company or RTA. After the transfer to IEPF, shareholders can claim their shares and unclaimed dividends by applying to the IEPF authority using Form IEPF-5, available on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website (www.mca.gov.in). No claim will lie against the Company in respect of unclaimed dividends and shares transferred to IEPF.
