Uno Minda has informed its shareholders that the final dividend for the financial year 2018-19, which has remained unclaimed for seven years as of September 10, 2026, will be credited to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF). The corresponding equity shares on which dividends were unclaimed for seven consecutive years will also be transferred to the IEPF authority in accordance with the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016.
The company published a notice in the Financial Express and Jansatta newspapers on June 2, 2026, urging shareholders to claim their unclaimed dividends. Individual notices are being dispatched to all concerned shareholders whose shares are liable for transfer. The company has made the full details of such shareholders available on its website.
Shareholders holding shares in physical form will have their original share certificates automatically cancelled as duplicate certificates are issued and transferred to the IEPF. For those holding shares in electronic form, the demat accounts will be debited for the shares liable for transfer.
The company will proceed to transfer the liable dividend and equity shares to the IEPF authority without further notice if valid claims are not received on or before September 10, 2026. Once transferred, no claim shall lie against the company regarding the unclaimed dividend amount and shares. However, concerned shareholders can claim the shares and dividend from the IEPF authority by submitting an application in the prescribed Form IEPF-5 online and sending a physical copy of the requisite documents to the company's Nodal Officer.
