Overview of IEPF Claim

Shares and dividends that remain unclaimed for seven consecutive years are transferred by companies to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF). Shareholders or their legal heirs can reclaim them by filing Form IEPF-5 and completing verification with the company and the IEPF Authority.

The IEPF claim process is documentation-heavy and time-consuming. We prepare and file Form IEPF-5, coordinate the company's verification report, and follow the claim through to credit.

Key Benefits of IEPF Claim

• Recover lost wealth: Reclaim shares and unpaid dividends
• End-to-end filing: Form IEPF-5 and entitlement letter handled
• Heir claims: Support for claims by legal heirs
• Company coordination: We manage the verification report
• Higher success: Correct documentation avoids rejection

Documents Required

• KYC documents (PAN, Aadhaar, bank, demat account)
• Original share certificates / transaction statement
• Indemnity bond, advance receipt and affidavit
• Succession documents (for heir claims)
