Bandhan Bank has published a newspaper notice informing shareholders about the mandatory transfer of equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Authority. This transfer applies to shares where dividends have remained unclaimed for seven or more consecutive years. Two deadlines are set: August 2, 2026 for Bandhan Bank dividends (from FY 2018-19) and August 22, 2026 for dividends from erstwhile GRUH Finance (amalgamated in October 2019). The bank has sent reminders to affected shareholders and published notices in English (Financial Express), Gujarati, and Bengali newspapers. Additionally, the bank is promoting the IEPFA's Second 100-Day 'Saksham Niveshak' campaign (April 1 to July 9, 2026) focused on KYC updation and dividend claims, and a SEBI Special Window for dematerialization of physical shares (open until February 4, 2027).
Minimal direct impact on stock price as this is routine regulatory compliance. Affected shareholders risk losing unclaimed dividends and underlying shares if they fail to submit claims before the deadlines.
