No Advance Fee: What You Pay, and When You Pay It
Our fee is a pre-agreed percentage of what is actually recovered, charged after the shares reach your demat account. Nothing before. This page sets out exactly what that covers, and what it does not.
The policy in one paragraph
You pay us nothing to assess your case and nothing while we work on it. When the shares or dividends are credited to your account, we invoice an agreed percentage of the value recovered. If nothing is recovered, there is no professional fee.
Separately from our fee, there are government and third-party costs — stamp duty on indemnity bonds, notary charges, court fees where a succession certificate is genuinely needed, newspaper notices, apostille or attestation charges abroad. Those are paid by you at actuals, to whoever levies them. We do not mark them up.
We also tell every client something most agents leave out: Form IEPF-5 can be filed by anyone, free, on the MCA portal. What you are paying us for is the documentation, the entitlement letter, the registrar correspondence, the transmission work where a shareholder has died, and the persistence to see a claim through when it stalls.
Our Step-by-Step Process
Free assessment
Tell us the shareholder’s name and the company. We check the IEPF records and the registrar position, and tell you what exists and roughly what it is worth. No charge, no obligation.
Written engagement
If you go ahead, the percentage, the scope and the likely statutory costs are set out in writing before any work starts. Nothing is verbal.
We do the work
Documentation, filings, registrar and company follow-up, escalation where needed. You pay only the statutory costs as they arise, directly.
Shares credited to you
Recovered shares go into your own demat account and dividends into your own bank account. They never pass through us.
Then we invoice
The agreed percentage becomes payable once the credit has happened, not before.
The Global Equity Solutions Advantage
Our incentive matches yours
We are paid only if you are paid, which means we tell you early when a case is not worth pursuing rather than billing hours into it.
No money at risk upfront
The most common pattern in recovery fraud is a fee demanded before anything happens. There is nothing to lose here because there is nothing to pay.
Costs are transparent
Statutory charges are paid by you at actuals, to the authority concerned. We do not add a margin to court fees or stamp paper.
Your assets never touch our accounts
Shares are credited to your demat account and money to your bank account, always in the claimant’s own name.

Common Questions Answered
No advance professional fee, and no charge for the initial assessment. The only money you spend before recovery is statutory — stamp paper, notarisation, any court fee — and that is paid directly to the authority or professional concerned, not to us.
It depends on the complexity and the value: an IEPF claim on a live folio is not the same work as a two-generation transmission with heirs abroad. The percentage is agreed in writing before work starts, so there are no surprises at the end.
Stamp duty on indemnity bonds and affidavits at your state’s rate, notary charges, court fees if a succession certificate is genuinely required, newspaper advertisement costs where the rules require one, and apostille or consular attestation if documents are signed abroad.
Yes. Form IEPF-5 is free to file on the MCA portal, and if your case is simple — shares in your own name, KYC current, documents in order — you may not need anyone. People engage us when the shareholder has died, the folio is decades out of date, the certificates are missing, or a claim has already been rejected once.
Because it is in the written engagement before work begins. Ask for it, read it, and keep it. Any adviser unwilling to put a fee basis in writing is telling you something.
