vip industries will transfer unclaimed dividends for the financial year 2018-19 and the corresponding equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) on September 3, 2026. This action follows the requirement under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, and Rule 6 of the IEPF Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016. The transfer applies to amounts that have remained unpaid or unclaimed for a period of seven consecutive years.
The company has issued a reminder to shareholders whose dividends and shares are due for transfer to the Demat Account of the IEPF Authority. The final dividend declared for FY18-19, which remains unpaid, will be credited to the IEPF on the specified date. Additionally, the shares on which the dividend remains unpaid for seven consecutive years will be transferred as per the prescribed procedure. However, shares will not be transferred if there is a specific court or tribunal order restraining such a transfer or if they are hypothecated under the Depositories Act, 1996.
Shareholders are requested to claim the unpaid dividend for FY18-19 onwards on or before August 14, 2026. Failure to do so will result in the company transferring the funds and shares to the IEPF without further notice. Once transferred, no claim will lie against the company regarding the dividend amount and the shares. Shareholders may claim the dividend and shares from the IEPF authorities after following the procedure prescribed in the rules.
The details of shares liable to be transferred are available on the company's website. For queries, shareholders can contact the company's Registrar and Transfer Agent, MUGF Intime India Private Limited. The notice regarding this transfer was published in The Free Press Journal and Nav Shakti on June 5, 2026.
