Bank of India has announced the opening of a special window for shareholders to re-lodge transfer requests for physical share certificates, following regulatory guidelines from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The initiative aims to provide relief to shareholders whose earlier transfer requests were not processed due to various deficiencies.

Special Window Details

Pursuant to SEBI Circular No. HO/38/13/11(2)2026-MIRSD-POD/1/3750/2026 dated January 30, 2026, the bank has established a one-year special window facility. The key parameters of this facility are outlined below:

Registrar and Share Transfer Agent

Shareholders who missed the earlier deadline can now submit their requisite documents to the bank's appointed Registrar and Share Transfer Agent:

KYC Update Requirements

The bank has requested all shareholders to update their Know Your Customer (KYC) details to ensure smooth communication and seamless dividend payments. The required information includes:

• PAN (Permanent Account Number)
• Email ID
• Address
• Mobile number
• Bank account details

Shareholders holding shares in demat form should update these details with their Depository Participant (DP), while those holding physical shares should approach the Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA).

Dematerialisation Advisory

Bank of India has strongly advised shareholders holding physical share certificates to convert them to demat form. This process involves submitting share certificates to their respective Depository Participant (DP). The dematerialisation process offers several advantages including easier transfer procedures, reduced paperwork, and enhanced security.

Regulatory Compliance

The notice was published in compliance with Regulation 47(3) of SEBI (Listing Obligation and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The announcement was made through newspaper publications in Business Standard English & Hindi editions and Marathi newspaper Loksatta on April 9, 2026. The communication was signed by Usha Ramsinghani, Company Secretary of Bank of India, and dated April 8, 2026.

Bank of India has submitted its reconciliation of share capital audit report for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, to both BSE and NSE in compliance with Regulation 76(1) of SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 2018. The audit was conducted by Pradeep Purwar & Associates, a practicing Company Secretary firm.

Share Capital Structure

The comprehensive audit report reveals the bank's current share capital composition and distribution across various holding formats:

Key Financial Details

The report highlights that Bank of India maintains equity shares with a face value of ₹10 each. The bank's securities are listed on both major Indian stock exchanges - BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. A significant portion of 3,34,08,61,720 equity shares are held by the Central Government and are classified as non-tradable.

Forfeited Shares Status

The audit report addresses historical share forfeitures, noting that the bank had forfeited 11,85,300 equity shares on March 29, 2003. Subsequently, annulment of forfeiture for 8,200 equity shares was completed by March 31, 2026, leaving 11,77,100 equity shares that remain unlisted on stock exchanges. This accounts for the difference between issued capital and listed capital.

Compliance and Operations

The bank confirmed full compliance with SEBI regulations during the quarter under review. No changes in share capital occurred during the quarter, and the Register of Members remains updated. The report indicates zero pending dematerialization requests beyond the prescribed 21-day period, demonstrating efficient operational processes.

Key Personnel and Service Providers

The audit certification was issued on April 8, 2026, by Pradeep Kumar Purwar, Proprietor of Pradeep Purwar & Associates, confirming the bank's adherence to all prescribed SEBI regulations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
