When You Need an IEPF Claim
If dividends on a shareholding went unclaimed for seven consecutive years, the company was legally required to transfer both the unpaid dividend and the underlying shares to the IEPF Authority. At that point the company and its registrar can no longer release them to you directly.
The only route back is Form IEPF-5. The good news: there is no deadline, and bonus shares issued on the holding in the meantime come back with it.
What We Do for You
- Confirm whether the holding is with the registrar or already in IEPF
- Verify the exact share count before filing
- Prepare the indemnity bond and advance receipt on correct stamp paper
- Resolve name and signature mismatches first
- File Form IEPF-5 and record the SRN
- Courier the physical set inside the 120-day window
- Chase the Nodal Officer and IEPF Authority until credit

Frequently Asked Questions
Can ClaimMyFunds file the IEPF claim for me from Surat?
Yes. We prepare Form IEPF-5, assemble the physical document set, courier it to the company Nodal Officer inside the 120-day window, and chase the claim through to credit. Clients in Surat deal with us entirely by phone and WhatsApp.
Where do I file an IEPF claim in Surat?
Form IEPF-5 is filed online on the MCA21 portal at mca.gov.in — there is no physical IEPF office to visit. The physical document set then goes by courier to the Nodal Officer of the company concerned, wherever that company is registered.
How much does IEPF claim help cost in Surat?
The initial case check is free. Filing the form itself carries no government fee. Our professional fee depends on the complexity of the case, and we quote it upfront before any work begins.
What is the 120-day rule I keep reading about?
After you submit Form IEPF-5 online you have 120 days to get the physical document set to the company's Nodal Officer. Miss that window and the claim lapses, and you have to file again from scratch. It is the single most common reason claims fail.
Can you handle an IEPF claim if I live outside Surat?
Yes. We take cases from every district in Gujarat and across India. The process runs on WhatsApp and courier, so your location makes very little difference to the timeline.
What if my earlier IEPF claim was rejected?
A rejection is not final. You can file a fresh IEPF-5 once the deficiency is corrected. The usual causes are a name mismatch, an improperly executed indemnity bond, or the wrong stamp paper value. We identify the exact reason and re-file.
