Share Recovery Agent in Guwahati
Distance is the practical problem for shareholders in Assam: company registrars sit in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Chennai, and a claim that stalls can be hard to chase from Guwahati.
We handle that correspondence for families across Assam — tracing folios, preparing documents, filing IEPF claims and following up until the shares reach your demat account. The first assessment is free.

Assam holdings and the registrar problem
Guwahati’s trading and professional families, and the tea industry that shaped commerce across the region, produced a steady base of retail shareholders from the 1980s onwards. Almost none of the companies involved keep a registry anywhere near Assam.
That makes ordinary friction worse. A rejected form, a signature query or a missing attestation can each cost weeks, and a family without someone to pursue it tends to give up — which is how dividends go unclaimed for seven years and the shares end up with the IEPF.
Assam documentation for a deceased shareholder
Assam issues what is called a Next of Kin Certificate, applied for through the state’s Sewa Setu portal or in person at the Deputy Commissioner’s, Sub-Divisional Officer’s or Circle Officer’s office. The application goes to the Circle Officer, and a revenue official or the Gaon Pradhan verifies the family details locally.
In many cases no such certificate is needed. 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.

Questions from Guwahati
Do we have to travel to Mumbai to deal with the registrar?
No. Registrars accept documents by post and increasingly through online service portals, and we handle the correspondence and follow-up on your behalf from Gurugram.
What is a Next of Kin Certificate?
It is Assam’s equivalent of a legal heir certificate, applied for on the Sewa Setu portal or through the Deputy Commissioner, Sub-Divisional Officer or Circle Officer, and verified locally before it is issued.
Our claim was rejected once already. Can it be refiled?
Yes. A rejected IEPF claim can be filed again as a fresh Form IEPF-5 once the defect is fixed, and most rejections come down to document mismatches rather than entitlement.
Can you work with families elsewhere in the North East?
Yes. The process is the same wherever you live; only state-issued certificates depend on where the shareholder lived.
What do you charge?
Nothing upfront and nothing for the assessment. An agreed percentage of the value is charged once the shares are credited, with statutory costs paid by you at actuals.
