The company has issued a reminder to shareholders whose dividends from FY2020 to FY2026 remain unclaimed, urging them to claim these amounts before the deadline.
According to the notice, shareholders have until Tuesday, August 18, 2026, to claim their outstanding dividends. If valid claims are not received by this date, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance will transfer the unclaimed dividend amounts, along with the corresponding shares, to the IEPF Authority. This action is in compliance with Section 124 of the Companies Act, 2013, and the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (Accounting, Audit, Transfer and Refund) Rules, 2016.
The company has made available the details of unclaimed dividends on its website, www.iciciprulife.com, under the ‘Shareholder Information’ section. Shareholders are encouraged to update their KYC and bank account details with the Registrar to the Issue and Share Transfer Agent (RTA) or their Depository Participant to facilitate electronic credit of the dividend payments.
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance has cautioned that any requests received after the deadline or found to be inadequate will result in the transfer of the relevant shares and dividends to the IEPF without further notice. Shareholders or their legal heirs can claim the transferred amounts and shares from the IEPF Authority by submitting Form IEPF-5 electronically, as prescribed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
