Part of our guide to IEPF claims and Form IEPF-5

This continues our October calendar: companies that have said they will move shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund, because the dividends on them have gone unclaimed for seven consecutive years.

Until the transfer happens, claiming one unpaid dividend from the company stops it. After it, getting the shares back means a claim to the IEPF Authority on Form IEPF-5. What to do with a transfer notice.

Notices and due dates

Dates are as reported or as shown on the company’s own investor page, current as of 28 October 2026. Always confirm the date in the company’s notice before relying on it.

  • Xerox India — final dividend for 2018-19 and the shares behind it to be transferred on 31 October 2026. If you are reading this in November, that date has passed. (report)
  • Infosys — the 2019-20 interim dividend of ₹8 a share, declared on 11 October 2019, is due for transfer on 11 November 2026, according to Infosys’s own unclaimed dividend page. (Infosys) Old Infosys shares.
  • Indus Towers — notice published on 8 October 2026 in Mint and Hindustan, covering shares on which the second interim dividend for 2019-20 has gone unclaimed. The claim date has been reported as 9 January 2027. Indus Towers’ registrar is KFin Technologies. (report) An earlier notice, for the first interim dividend of 2019-20, asked for claims by 11 September 2026 — those shares may already have moved.
  • Borosil Renewables — notice published on 16 October 2026 in Business Standard and Nav Shakti, covering the dividend for 2018-19. The dividend and the shares behind it are due to be transferred from 28 January 2027. (report)
  • Petronet LNG — its investor page lists the final dividend for 2018-19 and the special interim dividend for 2019-20 as liable for transfer during 2026-27, without a specific date. (Petronet LNG)

As with October, this is only the notices that were reported or are easy to find. Many companies publish theirs with no coverage at all.

Look under the old name too

Two of these companies used to be called something else, and families often know them only by the old name.

  • Bharti Infratel merged with Indus Towers in November 2020 and the combined company took the Indus Towers name. A Bharti Infratel holding is now an Indus Towers holding, and it is covered by these notices.
  • Gujarat Borosil is the former name of Borosil Renewables. Old Gujarat Borosil certificates are Borosil Renewables shares.

A claim date and a transfer date are not the same

Some notices give the date by which you must claim; others give the date the shares will move. The gap between them is the company’s processing time. If a notice gives only a transfer date, do not plan to claim the day before it — claim now, so the registrar has time to update the folio and pay the dividend before the shares are swept.

Checking quickly

  • Each company’s investor page carries the list of folios whose shares are due to move, usually searchable by folio number or DP and client ID.
  • If you do not have a folio number, start from the name and PAN of the person who held the shares. How to search by PAN.
  • If the shares have already moved, nothing is lost — the claim simply goes to the IEPF Authority instead. How an IEPF claim works.

Want us to check?

Tell us the company and the shareholder’s name. We will confirm whether the folio is on a transfer list and, if there is still time, what to send to stop it. Free unclaimed share search.

Frequently asked questions

How do I stop my shares being transferred to the IEPF?

Claim at least one unpaid dividend from the company before the transfer date, usually by updating KYC and bank details with the registrar. What to do with a transfer notice.

What is the last date to claim Indus Towers unclaimed dividends?

The claim date in Indus Towers’ October 2026 notice has been reported as 9 January 2027. Confirm it in the company’s notice, and claim well before it.

Are old Bharti Infratel shares now Indus Towers shares?

Yes. Bharti Infratel merged with Indus Towers in November 2020 and the combined company took the Indus Towers name, so a Bharti Infratel holding is an Indus Towers holding.

What if my shares have already been transferred to the IEPF?

They are recoverable. The claim goes to the IEPF Authority on Form IEPF-5, verified by the company. How an IEPF claim works.
