The clarification was made through a communication dated March 16, 2026, addressed to both BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited.
Current Shareholding Structure
The company informed exchanges that its entire equity shareholding is presently held in dematerialised form, with a single exception. Only one shareholder currently holds physical shares after specifically requesting rematerialisation from DEMAT mode to physical form.

|---|---|
| Total Physical Shares: | 5 shares |
| Number of Physical Shareholders: | 1 shareholder |

SEBI Circular Requirements
Pursuant to SEBI Circular Ref. No. HO/38/13/11(2)2026-MIRSD-POD/I/3750/2026 dated January 30, 2026, companies are required to open special windows for transfer and dematerialisation of physical shares. However, the company clarified that these requirements apply only where physical shareholders exist to whom the dematerialisation and transfer window is applicable.
Listing and Historical Context
Fedbank Financial Services was listed on BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited on November 30, 2023, with 100% DEMAT shareholding at the time of listing. The company noted that no share transfer requests were lodged prior to 2019, which further supports its position regarding the non-applicability of the SEBI circular requirements.
Regulatory Compliance
Based on the current shareholding structure and historical transfer activity, the company has determined that the newspaper publication and reporting requirements prescribed under the SEBI circular are not applicable. The clarification was signed by Parthasarathy Iyengar, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer, and submitted to both exchanges for information and record purposes.
This regulatory clarification demonstrates the company's proactive approach to compliance and transparency in communicating with stock exchanges regarding applicable regulatory requirements.
