Astra Microwave Products has initiated the ‘Saksham Niveshak’ campaign, urging shareholders to update their KYC information and claim unpaid dividends. The campaign runs from 1st April to 9th July 2026, aiming to prevent the transfer of unclaimed dividends to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF).
The Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority, under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, has prompted companies to engage shareholders in updating their KYC details. This initiative is part of a broader effort to ensure that dividends are not transferred to the IEPF due to outdated shareholder information.
Shareholders are advised to contact their Depository Participant (DP) to update their KYC details, including bank information and IFSC codes. Additionally, they should reach out to Astra Microwave’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent (RTA) for assistance with unpaid dividends.
The RTA, Purva Sharegistry India Pvt Ltd, located in Mumbai, will handle all inquiries related to unpaid dividends and other shareholder services such as share transfers and address changes. Shareholders are required to provide their full name, address, updated Client Master List (CML), and Demat ID to facilitate the process.
By participating in the ‘Saksham Niveshak’ campaign, shareholders can ensure their dividends are credited directly to their bank accounts, thus avoiding the transfer of funds to the IEPF.
