Chembond Material Technologies Limited has issued a formal notice to shareholders regarding the mandatory transfer of unclaimed dividends and equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Authority. The communication, dated March 12, 2026, was sent to BSE Limited and concerned shareholders as part of regulatory compliance under SEBI listing regulations.

Regulatory Framework and Timeline

Under Section 124 of the Companies Act, 2013, and IEPF Rules 2016, the company is required to transfer unclaimed dividends and related equity shares to the IEPF Authority. The transfer process follows specific statutory timelines:

The statutory provisions mandate that dividend amounts remaining unclaimed for seven years must be transferred to IEPF. Additionally, equity shares on which dividends have not been claimed for seven consecutive years are also liable for transfer to the IEPF Authority.

Shareholder Action Requirements

Shareholders must submit their claims through MUFG Intime India Private Limited, the company's registrar and transfer agent, before the August 25, 2026 deadline. The documentation requirements vary based on the form of shareholding:

For Demat Shareholders:

• Self-attested copy of Client Master List
• Payment will be made electronically to registered bank account

For Physical Shareholders:

• Investor Service Request Forms (ISR-1, ISR-2)
• Form SH-13 (Nomination Form - optional)
• Original cancelled cheque with account holder's name
• KYC compliance documentation

KYC Compliance and Payment Processing

As per SEBI circulars, outstanding payments will only be credited to bank accounts if the folio is KYC compliant. A folio is considered compliant when it contains complete details including full address with pincode, mobile number, email ID, bank details, and valid PAN linked to Aadhaar for all holders.

Shareholders with nil equity shares but having unclaimed dividends must submit claims with cancelled cheque or passbook copies for processing.

Post-Transfer Recovery Process

Once dividends and shares are transferred to IEPF Authority, shareholders can only claim them directly from IEPF by following procedures outlined on the official website at www.iepf.gov.in . The company will not entertain any claims after the transfer is completed.

According to the November 18, 2025 SEBI circular, shareholders without complete and valid bank details registered against their folio will have future dividends retained in abeyance. This emphasizes the importance of maintaining updated KYC information for seamless dividend processing.
