DCB Bank Limited has announced two significant initiatives for its shareholders through newspaper advertisements published on April 13, 2026, in Business Standard (English) and Pudhari (Marathi), in compliance with SEBI regulations.

Special Window for Physical Share Transfer

Following SEBI Circular No. HO/2025/MIRD-POD/3750/2026 dated January 30, 2026, DCB Bank has opened a special window for transfer and dematerialisation of physical shares. This facility will remain available for one year, from February 5, 2026 to February 4, 2027.

The special window also covers transfer requests submitted before April 1, 2023 that were rejected, returned, or not processed due to document deficiencies or other issues. All transferred securities will be mandatorily credited in demat mode and remain under lock-in for one year, during which they cannot be transferred, sold, or pledged.

Second 100 Days Campaign - 'Saksham Maveshak'

DCB Bank has launched the Second 100 Days Campaign titled 'Saksham Maveshak' following IEPF Authority's email dated March 27, 2026. This initiative runs from April 1, 2026 to July 9, 2026, targeting shareholders with unpaid dividends from FY 2019-2020 to FY 2024-2025.
