Canara Bank has published notices in Business Standard (English), Amar Ujala (Hindi), and Vijayavani (Kannada) on 30 September 2025 regarding the upcoming transfer of certain equity shares to the IEPF. This action is required under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, for shares whose dividends have remained unclaimed for 7 consecutive years. The bank had earlier transferred unclaimed dividends for FY 2016-17 on 11 November 2024 and for FY 2014-15 (pertaining to the erstwhile Syndicate Bank) on 25 August 2022, with the corresponding shares due for transfer to IEPF on 31 December 2025. Affected shareholders were individually notified on 29 September 2025 and have until 31 December 2025 to claim their dividends, failing which their shares — and all future benefits — will move to IEPF. Shareholders can reclaim their shares later by filing Form IEPF-5 on the IEPF portal.
This is a routine regulatory compliance disclosure with no material impact on Canara Bank's operations or share price. Only a small set of shareholders with 7+ year-old unclaimed dividends who do not act before 31 December 2025 will be affected by the share transfer.
