Indus Towers has published a public notice in Mint (English) and Hindustan (Hindi) on February 20, 2026, informing shareholders about the upcoming transfer of equity shares to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) Authority. As per Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, shares of shareholders who have not claimed their dividends for seven consecutive years or more will be moved to IEPF. The seven-year clock starts from the 2nd Interim Dividend declared for FY 2018-2019. Affected shareholders have until May 23, 2026, to claim their dividends, after which their shares will be transferred to IEPF's demat account. Shareholders can recover their shares later by filing Form IEPF-5 with the IEPF Authority, with KFin Technologies acting as the Registrar.
This is a routine regulatory compliance filing with no direct impact on the stock price. Shareholders who have unclaimed dividends from FY 2018-19 onwards should act before May 23, 2026, to avoid their shares being transferred to IEPF. Once transferred, recovery is possible but involves a longer procedural process.
