Blue Dart Express has published a notice informing shareholders that equity shares with unclaimed dividends for 7 consecutive years or more will be transferred to the Investor Education & Protection Fund (IEPF) as mandated under Section 124 of the Companies Act 2013. The company has already individually communicated with affected shareholders and uploaded their details on its website. Shareholders have until September 6, 2026, to claim unpaid dividends from 2018-19 onwards to prevent share transfer. For physical shares, duplicate certificates will be issued before transfer; for dematerialized shares, they will be directly transferred to IEPF's demat account. Both unclaimed dividends and shares can be reclaimed from IEPF by filing e-form IEPF-5.
This is a routine regulatory compliance notice. Affected shareholders who do not claim their dividends by September 6, 2026 will have their shares transferred to IEPF, though they can still reclaim them later through IEPF-5 form. No immediate impact on the stock price or company operations.
