Share Recovery Agent in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad households hold a remarkable density of old share certificates — textile-era holdings, 1980s and 1990s public issues, and folios opened in the names of several family members at once.
We trace those holdings, work out what they are worth after decades of bonus issues and splits, and handle the registrar or IEPF process end to end. The first assessment is free.

Mill-era wealth, and folios two generations old
Ahmedabad’s textile economy created a broad investing class long before demat accounts existed, and the habit carried into the public issue boom that followed. Certificates were bought, filed away, and rarely revisited.
Two or three decades later the same pattern repeats in almost every file we see: the registered address is a house the family has left, the signature on record belongs to someone who has died, and nobody has told the registrar. That is a fixable problem, not a lost holding.
Gujarat documentation for Ahmedabad families
In Gujarat the legal heir certificate is the **Varsai certificate**, issued by the Mamlatdar. Applications are made through the Revenue section of the Digital Gujarat portal, in Gujarati or English, with a nominal fee; published guidance puts processing at up to about two months, so start it early if your holding needs one.
Often no such certificate is needed at all. SEBI’s simplified transmission route covers holdings up to ₹10 lakh per company in physical form and ₹30 lakh in demat, on a notarised indemnity bond and an affidavit-cum-NOC from the other legal heirs.
- Form ISR-1 to bring PAN, address, bank and contact details on the folio up to date
- Form ISR-2, attested by your bank, where the signature no longer matches
- For a deceased holder: death certificate, Annexure-3 request form, indemnity bond and heirs’ NOCs
- Form IEPF-5, free to file on the MCA portal, where the shares have gone to the IEPF

Questions from Ahmedabad
Our certificates are from a textile company that shut down.
Check first whether it was renamed, merged or wound up — the three have very different outcomes. MCA company master data shows the current status against the old name, and we run that check before quoting for anything.
Dividends stopped arriving years ago. Are the shares gone?
Almost never. They are usually either still with the company with unpaid dividends attached, or transferred to the IEPF after seven unclaimed years. Both are recoverable.
Do we need to travel to your office?
No. Documents go by courier and identity is verified over video call. We work with families across Ahmedabad and Gujarat remotely.
Can you work in Gujarati?
Our advisory desk works in English and Hindi. We explain every document before anything is signed, and we are happy to speak with a family member who is most comfortable handling the paperwork.
How are your fees calculated?
As an agreed percentage of the value recovered, charged only after the shares reach your demat account. Statutory costs such as stamp duty and notary charges are paid by you at actuals.
