Identity and bank documents
PAN, Aadhaar, address proof, bank proof, cancelled cheque, and demat account details are commonly needed to establish identity and receiving account information.
Shareholding proof
Folio details, old certificates, dividend records, company letters, and any registrar-linked papers help establish the original holding and investor relationship.
Additional papers for heirs and nominees
Death certificate, legal heir proof, succession papers, nominee evidence, and relationship documents may be required in transmission-linked IEPF cases.
Detailed FAQs
Do all IEPF cases need the same documents?
No. The exact document set depends on whether the claimant is the original shareholder, nominee, or legal heir, and whether the shares were physical or demat.
Is a demat account usually required for IEPF share recovery?
In many share-recovery situations, demat details are needed so recovered shares can be credited properly.
Can mismatched names or signatures delay an IEPF claim?
Yes. Name mismatch, signature mismatch, or outdated records are common reasons for delay and often need correction documents.
