Shares in IEPF

Why Are BEL (Bharat Electronics) Shares Transferred to IEPF?

Under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, if dividends declared by BEL (Bharat Electronics) remain unclaimed for 7 consecutive years, both the unclaimed dividends and the corresponding shares are mandatorily transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) managed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).

This commonly happens when:

  • The shareholder changed address without updating the company records
  • The shareholder passed away and heirs were unaware of the holdings
  • Physical share certificates were forgotten in old documents
  • Bank account linked to dividend was changed or closed
  • NRI shareholders lost track of Indian investments

  2. Step 2: Click on "Search Unclaimed Dividends/Shares"
  3. Step 3: Select "BEL (Bharat Electronics)" from the company dropdown
  4. Step 4: Enter your Name, PAN, or Folio Number
