For IEPF shares recovery, claimants need to fill out a prescribed form, Form IEPF-5 and submit it to the IEPF Nodal Officer or registrar of the Company. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs presented the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) rules in 2017 under Section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013. This states that any unclaimed dividend for more than seven years, counting from its date of declaration, gets transferred to the IEPF. And those who intend to recover their lost shares need to complete their transmission procedure from the Company. And once it’s filled and goes to the Nodal officer, they verify it and send the report to the IEPF authority, who later issues a receipt of the transfer and sanction letter for the refund to the claimant. After this, the shares are transferred to the claimant.
