Karur Vysya Bank has launched the 'Saksham Niveshak' campaign, a 100-day initiative running from April 01, 2026, to July 09, 2026. The campaign is designed to create awareness among shareholders to update their KYC details and claim any unpaid or unclaimed dividends. This measure is intended to prevent the transfer of dividend amounts and shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
The bank disclosed that it has published advertisements in newspapers on June 06, 2026, to inform shareholders about the campaign. The notification was published in the All Edition of Business Standard in English and the Trichy Edition of Dinamalar in Tamil. The initiative follows a circular issued by the IEPFA.
Shareholders with unpaid or unclaimed dividends, or those who are non-KYC compliant, are requested to update their KYC details, bank mandates, and contact information. Ensuring these details are current is necessary for the timely receipt of dividends directly into bank accounts and to prevent the transfer of funds to the IEPF.
The bank has established a dedicated assistance line for unclaimed dividends at 04324-269441. Shareholders holding physical shares must submit specific Investor Request Forms (ISR) to the bank's Registrar and Transfer Agent, M/s. MUFG Intime India Private Limited, located in Coimbatore.
The required forms for physical shareholders include ISR-1 for KYC updation, ISR-2 for signature updation, ISR-3 for opting out of nomination, and SH-13 or SH-14 for nomination registration or cancellation. Forms are available on the bank's website. Shareholders holding shares in demat mode must approach their respective Depository Participants for updates.
