Ceat Ltd has issued a reminder notice to shareholders who have not claimed dividends since FY 2018-19. Under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, dividends unclaimed for 7 or more consecutive years must be mandatorily transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) along with the underlying equity shares. The company will initiate this transfer if no valid claim is received by September 3, 2026. Shareholders holding physical shares are also urged to dematerialize their holdings and update KYC/bank details for electronic dividend payments. The filing references SEBI's special window (Feb 2026 – Feb 2027) for re-lodgement of rejected physical share transfer requests originally submitted before April 1, 2019.
Routine compliance filing with minimal direct market impact. Affected shareholders risk losing dividend income and having shares transferred to IEPF, after which claims can only be made through IEPF Authority and not the company.
