- The share certificates with a seal, "surrendered for dematerialisation" affixed therein, along with DRF will be submitted to the company by the DP.
- The company will verify the DRF and share certificates and if found in order, confirm the dematerialisation to NSDL / CDSL as the case may be, within 15 days from the date of receipt of documents. NSDL / CDSL in turn, will confirm the dematerialisation to the DP.

D. Dividend:
- The dividend declared by the company is payable to those shareholders whose names appear in the register of members as on the record date declared by the company.
- The dividend warrants are valid for 3 months from the date of the warrant.
- Hence, shareholders are advised to encash the dividend before the expiry of the validity period.

- The dividend warrants will contain the details of banker's name, a/c No. of the shareholder, wherever the details have been furnished by the shareholders.
- In the case of shares held in physical form, since the dividend is posted to the address available in the company's register of members, any change in address / bank details etc. should be intimated to the company quoting the Ledger Folio Number, along with proof of change of address.
- In the case of shares held in electronic form, since the dividend warrant is posted to the address as made available to the company by NSDL / CDSL, any change in address / bank details etc. should be intimated to the DP only.
Electronic Clearing Service (ECS)
The Reserve Bank of India has introduced ECS facility whereby dividend is directly credited to the shareholder's bank a/c. This facility eliminates forgery/fraud, loss of warrant in transit and ensures quick credit to the shareholder's a/c.
Under this system, the Company's banker will issue payment instructions electronically to The Reserve Bank of India who in turn will supply credit reports to the respective banks of the shareholders.
Shareholders are advised to avail of the ECS facility. Click here to download ECS Form.
Investor Education & Protection Fund
The dividends which remain outstanding will be credited to Investor Education & Protection Fund after a period of 7 years as per the amended provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.
The amounts once credited to the above Fund cannot be claimed. Hence it is advisable that the shareholders encash the dividend warrants before the expiry of the validity period.
