DCM Shriram Industries will transfer unclaimed interim dividend for the financial year 2018-19 and the associated equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) if shareholders do not claim the amount by August 31, 2026. The transfer follows provisions under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016. This action impacts shareholders whose dividends have remained unpaid or unclaimed for seven consecutive years or more. A public notice regarding this transfer was published in the Financial Express and Jansatta newspapers on June 13, 2026.

The company communicated with the affected shareholders on June 11, 2026, at their registered addresses. It has also uploaded comprehensive details of the concerned shareholders and the unclaimed dividends on its website. The transfer process will be executed without further notice once the deadline passes, resulting in the cancellation of original share certificates held in physical form or a corporate action for demat holdings.

Claim Process and Shareholder Impact

Once the shares and dividends are transferred to the IEPF, shareholders lose their claim against the company. However, they are entitled to reclaim the funds and shares from the IEPF Authority by submitting an online application in Form IEPF-5 on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website. A physical copy of the form, along with requisite documents, must be sent to the company's registered office.

The table below outlines the key dates and contact information related to the IEPF transfer process.

Shareholders with queries regarding the transfer or the claim process can reach out to KFIN Technologies Limited, the company's Registrar and Share Transfer Agents. The details uploaded on the company's website regarding unpaid dividends and shares will serve as adequate notice for the issuance of duplicate share certificates and the subsequent transfer to IEPF.
