The initiative, running from April 1 to July 9, 2026, has been launched at the request of the Investor's Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

Campaign Objectives and Timeline

The primary purpose of the Saksham Niveshak campaign is to create awareness among shareholders to update their details and claim any unpaid or unclaimed dividends before they get transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF). The company emphasizes the importance of shareholders updating their PAN, nomination details, contact information, bank account details, and specimen signatures with the company or its Registrar & Transfer Agent, MAS Services Limited.

Required Documentation and Submission Process

Shareholders need to submit specific forms and documents to claim their unpaid dividends. The company has outlined a comprehensive process for document submission through multiple channels.
