In the year 2019, a person named Siddharth, approached us with a doubt that he had shares in a company called TATA motors. He just had a doubt but he did not have any proof of ownership because he lost his shares certificate in an accident.
He provided us his identification documents only. Using that documents we got him a duplicate shares certificate form the company and successfully dug out the shares from the IEPF authority. His shares were transferred to IEPF because he was not able to claim dividend for 7 consecutive years.
After we dug out shares from IEPF, those shares valued up to Rs. 30,00,000 INR. He got the benefit for his doubt and felt happy with our service.
Like Siddharth, we were able to serve 30+ clients out of which 10 clients are from Hyderabad, who lost their shares certificate and had doubt of owning shares in a company.

Shareholders kept their Physical shares certificate safe before the Harshad Mehta’s scam. After that, shareholders lost their hopes on the shares and left them as it is.
There are cases where people bought shares and kept secret from the family members. And if they die after certain period, the family members will never know about the shares. Anyways companies send dividend cheque to the shareholder’s address. Then the family members get to know that their family head bought shares in a company. There are few cases where the shares were transferred to IEPF before the family members know about the shares.
One of our clients, who is a minor of age 17 years old approached us with an expired dividend cheque in the name of his father and inquired about the details. After detailed research we found out that, his father named T.Subramaniam, employee of BHEL Ltd. owned 600 shares in a company called HDFC Ltd. After few years he got transferred to Bangalore as per job requirements. He was dead in bangalore and so there are no possibilities that he could deposit his dividends. This went for 7 years and those shares were transferred to IEPF.
After collecting all the information, we approached the company and IEPF with the death certificate, affidavit, KYC documents and requested for the process of transferring the shares. After transferring the shares worth approx. Rs. 8,00,000 INR in the name of minor, he is now able to claim the dividends but cannot sell the shares to anybody until he is major i.e., above 18 years old.
As we approached T. Subramaniam’s stock broker we got to know that, while T.Subramaniam was working in BHEL, Hyderabad, he invested in few other companies also. Now we are in the process of finding the remaining investments made by him which were indeed transferred to IEPF. His family felt happy for the previous service and gave us the project of finding out the remaining shares, so that they could get more than 1 crore INR after we dig out all the shares from IEPF in the name of T.Subramaniam.

Earlier while buying the shares, most of the people left filling out the nominee information to get rid of too much paperwork. That issue aroused in a wide range in present days. If the nominee information was filled out in earlier, now nominees can opt for transfer of shares directly by contacting the company easily. But it is difficult to transfer shares if nominee information was not provided while buying the shares. Since the nominee information was not provided, the shares can only be transferred to the legal heir or the family member.
For the transfer of shares from the dead shareholder to the legal heir or the family member to happen, documents like family member certificate, KYC documents like Aadhar and PAN of all family members, succession certificate, no objection certificate and affidavit are required. SharesRecoveryIndia has received a case which is relevant to the above situation.
A person named K.Narayana Rao bought 1200 shares in TCS Ltd. and those shares were transferred to IEFP because he did not claim the dividend of the shares for 7 consecutive years. Now the shares’ worth is Rs. 36,00,000 INR. While buying the shares, he did not mention the nominee information in the application of shares. Since there is no nominee for him as per records, only his family members or legal heir can get the shares. After the death of K. Narayana Rao, the ultimate head of the family is his wife.
Family members of K. Narayana Rao approached SharesRecoveryIndia. We gathered all the information and documents necessary for the transfer of shares. Documents that we collected from them are family member certificate, KYC documents like Aadhar and PAN of all family members, succession certificate, no objection certificate and affidavit along with IEPF Form-5. Shares were being transferred to his wife’s name in 1 month and claimed the unclaimed shares from IEPF in 3 months.

When the shares were bought earlier, few people added their nominee information while filling out the application. So, in case if the shareholder is dead the owner of the shares will be automatically the nominee. If in case the nominee also died, then the legal heir or the family members have rights to own the shares in the name of their parent.
Documents like family member certificate, KYC documents like Aadhar and PAN of all family members, succession certificate, no objection certificate and affidavit are required for the transfer of shares to legal heir or family members.

While buying shares, investors give the address where they stay as the residential address so that they can receive the dividend cheques sent by the company to that address.
Generally, shareholders who are employees in different organisation get transferred to different locations as required by the company where they work. In that case their address registered with the shareholding in a company will differ from the current address of staying. Hence, they cannot receive dividend cheques to the new address because the address is not updated to the new location. If this is continued for 7 years or more, those shares will be transferred to IEPF.
At SharesRecoveryIndia, we solved huge number of cases which are associated with change of address. That includes change of address after the death of shareholder, change of address after the death of both share holder and the nominee. For these cases we were able to solve them at ease when the family members of dead shareholders approached us for claiming the unclaimed shares.
After the claiming the unclaimed shares that are transferred to IEPF and if you want to change the address you have to produce the new address proofs and KYC documents along with the shares certificates.
