IEPF Recovery

Recover shares & dividends from IEPF

If dividends on your shares remain unclaimed for 7 consecutive years, the shares themselves — along with the unclaimed dividend — get transferred to the government's Investor Education and Protection Fund. Many shareholders and their families don't realise this has happened until they try to sell or transfer old shares.

The Process

How we take your claim from start to disbursement

  1. Case Review

    We check your folio and company records to confirm whether your shares have moved to IEPF.

  2. Documentation

    We help you gather and prepare the required documents — IEPF-5 form, indemnity bond, entitlement letter, identity and address proof.

  3. Entitlement Letter

    We coordinate with the company or RTA to obtain your official entitlement letter confirming your claim.

  4. IEPF-5 Filing

    We assist with filing the claim on the MCA/IEPF portal, ensuring the submission is complete and accurate.

  5. Follow-Up

    We track the claim through verification with the company and the IEPF Authority, through to final disbursement.

Common Situations

When shares end up in IEPF

  • Shares transferred to IEPF due to prolonged unclaimed dividends
  • Inherited shares that were never claimed or dematerialised by the original shareholder
  • Shares under old folios with outdated address or contact details
Not sure if this applies to you? If your family holds old share certificates, or you recall dividends that were never received for several years, there's a good chance your shares may already be with IEPF. Share your folio or company details with us and we'll help you check, free of charge.
