Share Recovery Agent in Greater Kailash, Delhi
Greater Kailash is exactly the kind of long-settled South Delhi colony where old share certificates surface: bought in the 1970s and 1980s, held on paper, and forgotten until someone clears out a locker or settles an estate.
We trace the holdings, work out what they are worth after decades of bonus issues and splits, and handle the registrar and IEPF process. Documents are collected by courier; nobody needs to come to Gurugram. The first assessment is free.

Old Delhi business families and paper shareholdings
The households of GK-1 and GK-2 were among the first retail investors in the public issues of the 1970s and 1980s, often applying in the names of several family members at once. Those folios carry the address of the original house — frequently since rebuilt, divided between siblings, or let out.
When the dividend warrants stop reaching anyone, the money accumulates unclaimed and after seven years both the dividends and the shares move to the IEPF. A large share of Delhi claims we handle begin there rather than with the company.
Delhi’s surviving member certificate, and when you need it
What most people call a legal heir certificate is issued in Delhi as a Surviving Member Certificate by the Revenue Department, through the SDM of the area, on an application made on the Delhi e-District portal. It is issued digitally and downloaded from the portal rather than handed over on paper.
For shares, you may not need it. Holdings within ₹10 lakh per company (physical) or ₹30 lakh (demat) can generally be transmitted on a notarised indemnity bond and an affidavit-cum-NOC from the other heirs.
- Surviving Member Certificate through the SDM, applied for on the Delhi e-District portal, where a state certificate is required

- Indemnity bond and affidavit-cum-NOC from the other heirs, notarised
- For IEPF holdings: Form IEPF-5 filed on the MCA portal, free of cost, with documents posted to the company’s nodal officer

Questions from Greater Kailash
We found certificates from the 1980s in a locker in GK. Are they still valid?
Generally yes, as evidence of the holding, unless the shares have been transferred to the IEPF or replaced by duplicates. They cannot be sold in paper form, so the shares have to be dematerialised first.
Is a surviving member certificate the same as a legal heir certificate?
In Delhi it serves that purpose. The Revenue Department issues a Surviving Member Certificate through the SDM, applied for on the e-District portal, and it is issued digitally.
The company name on our certificate no longer exists.
It has probably been renamed or merged into another company, and the holding carried across. We trace the current company and registrar and tell you what the shares became.
Can several family members claim together?
Yes. Shares can be transmitted into joint names, though a demat account holds at most three, or to one heir with notarised NOCs from the others, and the family settles between themselves afterwards.
How much do you charge for a Delhi claim?
There is no advance professional fee and no charge for the assessment. An agreed percentage is charged after the shares reach your demat account, with statutory costs such as stamp duty and notary fees paid by you at actuals.
