HOW TO CLAIM SHARES AND DIVIDEND TRANSFERRED TO IEPF AUTHORITY?
PROCESS TO GET BACK SHARES FROM IEPF
Dear Reader,
During the period of last 8-9 Months, we came across several cases, where a General mass of people stand un-aware of their shareholding in the Company due to several reasons. After getting information that their holding/investment may be transferred to IEPF in dividend(s) were not claimed. They stand helpless regarding the procedure to claim the same as filing of Form on IEPF website it is little tricky from their point of view.
However soon Ministry may came with web-based claim Form which would be easier as compare to current situation.
After transfer of shares, now shareholder seeks the reason of transfer and wish to claim the same form the IEPF authority for which form is available on IEPF Website. Here is responsibility of the Company Secretary cum Nodal Officer of the Company to provide solution to the shareholders.
Hence we came with the detailed procedure to claim the shares and dividend from the IEPF authority and practical aspects of the same from the point of view of shareholder and the Company.
STATUTORY PROVISIONS:

What amount of Revenue Stamp is required to be affixed on advance receipt page, once SRN is generated ?? Also what are further processes to do ??
Sir,
My mom used to hold 176 shares of M&M. She passed away in the year 2001. Now that 176 share’s had ballooned to 1408 share’s including the bonus. Me & my elder sister are her legal heirs. Yes, we have both made the Succession Certificate ready. No, we are not joint holders or we don’t want to be as joint holders also. What we want is to reclaim the share’s & dividends from IEPF. Then divide the share’s, dividends in 50:50 between ourselves with independent ownership for their respective share’s 704:704.
Yes, I did download the forms etc. This has to be divided equally between me & my elder sister.
1) I think that it must be done in two forms with each of our aadhar number. I am not sure on how to proceed! So how do I go on? This is not mentioned anywhere in their help.
2) Another thing is in IEPF Form 5 PDF document, I am unable to save multiple financial years as it’s showing an error asking me to enter it in FY- YYYY-YYYY. What I want to enter if 2002 – 2003, 2003-2004 & so on. Which I entered in correct format. Still it’s showing this error why?
So can you let me know what I am doing that’s wrong?
Thanks!

Dear Pramod,
If your ancestors shares/dividends have been transferred to the IEPF, you will have to file separate claim forms for all the legal heirs mentioned in the succession certificate.
Transmission will be done in all the successors name and you all will get entitlement from the company to reclaim these shares from the IEPF.
Hope that helps. Kindly contact me on ankitgarg.attorney@gmail.com for any detailed queries or call me at 09315645898. You may also visit iepfclaim.in

Ankit Garg
