IEPF Claim — Complete Guide

Section 124 (5) of the Companies Act, 2013 states that if the dividend remains unclaimed/unpaid for 7 years, it is transferred to IEPF.

The purpose of forming such IEPF authority is to save the interest of common investors who sometimes due to name change/address change would not able to get his/her dues from the company. The authority keeps these shares in their Demat account until someone comes and claim it. The company before transferring the shares to the IEPF authority must contact all the investors by email/phone so that they can come and claim their due. However, even after sending such correspondence if nobody turns up the shares/dividend get transferred to IEPF Claim authority.

So let us know how IEPF claim gets settled with the IEPF Authority?

To get IEPF Claim, you must first have a Demat account. If you do not have it, then, first of all, open a Demat account because IEPF claim is directly transferred to the Demat account only.
