IEPF Claim — Recover Shares & Dividends Transferred to Government

If dividends on your shares went unclaimed for 7 consecutive years, both the dividends and the shares are automatically transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) — a government authority under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Your shares are not lost. You can reclaim them — but the process involves multiple government portals, legal documentation, and company nodal officers. We handle all of it.

How IEPF Recovery Works
1
Identify Your Claim: We search IEPF records using your name, folio number, or company name to confirm your entitlement.
2
Document Collection: We guide you through every document needed — indemnity bonds, KYC, Demat details, affidavits, and more.
3
File Form IEPF-5: We complete and submit the online form on iepf.gov.in with your verified documents.
4
Company Verification: We liaise with the Company's Nodal Officer who verifies the claim and submits to IEPFA.
5
IEPFA Approval & Credit: IEPFA approves the claim and shares are credited directly to your Demat account.
Documents Required for IEPF Claim
Acknowledgement from IEPF-5 online submission (SRN)
Original Indemnity Bond (notarised)
Advance Stamped Receipt with revenue stamp
Original copy of Share Certificate or transaction statement
Aadhaar Card (self-attested)
PAN Card (self-attested)
Cancelled cheque leaf (bank account)
Demat Account details (DP ID + Client ID)
For NRIs: Passport, OCI / PIO card
⏱ Typical recovery timeline: 3–6 months depending on the company's nodal officer and IEPFA processing time.
Lost Certificates
Duplicate Share Certificate Issuance

Original share certificates can be lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed. Without the original certificate, you cannot sell, transfer, or dematerialise your shares. We help you obtain a Letter of Confirmation (LOC) or Duplicate Share Certificate from the company — a legally valid replacement that restores your full ownership rights.

The Duplicate Issuance Process
1
FIR / Police Complaint: We help you file a complaint regarding the lost certificate — required by most companies.
2
Newspaper Advertisement: A public notice must be published in a local and national newspaper giving 15 days notice.
3
Surety Bond & Indemnity: We prepare the required legal bonds and get them executed with appropriate stamp duty.
4
Submission to Company RTA: Complete application sent to the Company's Registrar & Transfer Agent (RTA).
5
LOC / Duplicate Certificate Issued: The company issues a Letter of Confirmation or Duplicate certificate in your name.
Documents Required
FIR copy from local police station
Newspaper advertisement clippings (2 publications)
Surety Bond on stamp paper
Indemnity Bond on stamp paper
PAN Card (self-attested)
Aadhaar Card (self-attested)
Shareholder signature verification
Folio number / last known certificate number
⏱ Typical timeline: 4–8 weeks after all documents are submitted.
Deceased Shareholder
Transmission of Shares to Legal Heir

When a shareholder passes away, the shares need to be legally transmitted to the rightful heir or nominee. This is called transmission — and it's different from a transfer. It doesn't require the original shareholder's signature, but does require legal documents establishing heirship. We manage the entire process with sensitivity and efficiency, including cases where there is no will or nomination.

Transmission Process
1
Establish Heirship: We help you obtain the appropriate legal document — Succession Certificate, Probate, or Legal Heir Certificate.
2
Prepare Application: Complete transmission application prepared, along with all supporting documents.
3
Submit to RTA / Company: Documents sent to the Registrar & Transfer Agent of each company whose shares are to be transmitted.
4
Demat Transfer: Once approved, shares are credited to the heir's Demat account in their name.
Documents Required
Death Certificate of the shareholder (original / notarised)
Legal Heir Certificate or Succession Certificate
Will and Probate (if applicable)
Original Share Certificates
PAN & Aadhaar of legal heir(s)
KYC documents of all claimants
Demat account details of the heir
Affidavit of heirship (if no nomination)
⏱ Typical timeline: 6–12 weeks depending on legal documentation complexity.
SEBI Mandate
Physical Share to Demat Conversion

SEBI has mandated that physical shares cannot be transferred in physical form — they must be dematerialised before any transaction. If you still hold physical share certificates, converting them to Demat is not just advisable — it's now legally necessary. Demat shares are safer, easier to manage, and prevent loss, theft, or damage.

Dematerialisation Process
1
Open Demat Account: We help you open a Demat account if you don't already have one through our empanelled depository participant.
2
Submit DRF Form: Demat Request Form (DRF) filled and submitted along with the original share certificates.
3
Certificate Defacement: Certificates are defaced and surrendered to the depository participant — this is mandatory.
4
RTA / Company Verification: The RTA verifies the certificates and confirms to the depository.
5
Electronic Credit: Shares are credited to your Demat account electronically — safe, secure, and transferable.
Documents Required
Original Physical Share Certificates
Demat Request Form (DRF) — provided by DP
PAN Card (mandatory)
Aadhaar Card (self-attested)
Bank account details (cancelled cheque)
Demat Account (NSDL / CDSL)
⏱ Typical timeline: 2–4 weeks after documents submitted. SEBI mandates process must be completed within 21 days.
Unclaimed Cash
Unclaimed Dividend Recovery

Companies declare dividends for their shareholders — but if you haven't updated your bank details with the company or your Demat, those dividends go into an Unpaid Dividend Account. After 7 years of being unclaimed, they are transferred to IEPF. We help you identify, claim, and recover all your unclaimed dividends across multiple companies.

Dividend Recovery Process
1
Search & Identify: We check company websites, RTA portals, and IEPF records for any unclaimed dividends in your name.
2
Update Bank Details: For recent unclaimed dividends still with the company, we update your registered bank account details.
3
File Claim with RTA: Submit indemnity and claim application to the company's Registrar & Transfer Agent.
4
IEPF-5 if transferred: For amounts already transferred to IEPF, we file Form IEPF-5 on your behalf.
Documents Required
Folio Number / Demat Account details
PAN Card (self-attested)
Aadhaar Card (self-attested)
Updated bank account details with cancelled cheque
Original dividend warrants (if available)
Indemnity Bond (for older claims)
⏱ Typical timeline: 4–8 weeks for company-held dividends. 3–6 months if transferred to IEPF.

Why Check Now?

Most people don't know their shares have been moved to IEPF until it's too late — or until a relative discovers a dusty certificate after someone passes away. Don't wait for that moment.

India's IEPF holds over ₹1 lakh crore in assets that belong to ordinary investors — and the clock keeps ticking. The earlier you claim, the simpler the process.

📅

7-year rule: Dividends unclaimed for 7 consecutive years trigger automatic IEPF transfer of both dividends AND shares.

📈

Hidden compounding: A 1990s investment of ₹5,000 in blue-chip stocks could be worth ₹10–50 lakh today due to bonus issues, splits, and price appreciation.

No expiry on your claim: Unlike insurance, you can file an IEPF claim any time — but company records can degrade over time, making early action important.

🇮🇳

IEPF-5 is complex: The government form requires 8–12 supporting documents and coordination with each company individually. That's why most people need help.

Stories From Clients Who Got Their Wealth Back

Replace the placeholders below with real client testimonials — specific companies, share counts, and rupee values are what build trust.

★★★★★

My mother had 500 Infosys shares from 1995 that no one knew about. The dividends had been unclaimed and the shares were in IEPF. Akash ji's team recovered all 500 shares — worth over ₹3.2 lakh today — in about 4 months. The entire process was handled remotely. Extraordinary service.

★★★★★

After my father passed away, we found physical certificates for 12 different companies. We had no idea how to transmit them. Aasaan Nivesh handled everything — all 12 companies, one by one, over 6 months. We're so grateful. My children will benefit from these shares for years.

★★★★★

I've been in Dubai for 20 years and had completely forgotten about ITC shares my father bought in 1993. Through Aasaan Nivesh I didn't have to visit India even once. They coordinated everything, got the duplicate certificate issued, and got the shares in my Demat. The value was far beyond what I expected.

Share Recovery FAQs

Everything you need to know before starting the process.

You can check on the official IEPF portal at iepf.gov.in using your name and folio number. Alternatively, call us and we'll do a free search for you across IEPF records, company RTA portals, and NSDL/CDSL databases. Most people are surprised by what they find.
The typical IEPF recovery takes 3–6 months from the date of filing Form IEPF-5. The timeline depends on how quickly the Company's Nodal Officer verifies the claim and how backlogged the IEPFA is. We file promptly, follow up regularly, and keep you updated with monthly status reports. For duplicate share certificate cases, 4–8 weeks is typical. Transmission cases can take 6–12 weeks.
Our fee is discussed transparently during the initial consultation and is included in the written Scope of Work we send you. For most IEPF and recovery cases, the fee is performance-linked — meaning a portion is payable only upon successful recovery. We believe in aligning our incentives with your outcome. Call us at 7678193636 for a no-obligation assessment.
Yes. We handle duplicate share certificate issuance. You'll need to file a police complaint, publish a newspaper notice, and execute certain legal bonds — but none of this requires the original certificate. We handle the entire process. The company then issues a Letter of Confirmation (LOC) or Duplicate Certificate that is legally equivalent to the original.
Absolutely. This is called transmission of shares, and it's one of our most common services. You'll need legal documents establishing your heirship — a Legal Heir Certificate, Succession Certificate, or Will with Probate — and we assist you in obtaining these as well. We've handled hundreds of transmission cases, including where the deceased left no nomination and there are multiple heirs.
In most cases, no. We handle the entire process remotely for NRI clients. Documents can be executed and notarised abroad, and scanned copies are accepted for initial filing. Physical originals may need to be couriered at a later stage depending on the company's requirements. We have served clients from UAE, USA, UK, Singapore, Australia, and Canada entirely remotely.
This is the exciting part. When you recover old shares, you recover all shares — including those received through bonus issues, stock splits, and rights issues over the years. For example, 100 shares of Wipro from 1990 have grown to approximately 960 shares today due to bonuses and splits alone, worth significantly more than the original investment. IEPF holds all these bonus shares and you are entitled to every one of them.

Those Old Share Certificates Are Probably Worth
