How long does it take to Shares recover from Iepf?

It typically takes around 60 days to recover shares from the IEPF after being claimed. The process involves the following steps:

  1. The claimant submits an online application in Form IEPF-5 along with other documents to the Nodal Officer of the company at its registered office for verification of the claim.
  2. The company sends the verification report to the IEPF within 15 days of receipt of the claim.
  3. The IEPF Authority decides on the claimant's reimbursement application within 60 days after obtaining the verification report from the relevant company.
  4. The IEPF Authority will issue a refund sanction order when the claimant is entitled to the shares with the permission of the competent authority.
  5. The IEPF Authority and the Drawing and Disbursing Officer of the authority will send a bill to the Pay and Accounts Officer for payment after verifying the claimant's entitlement.
  6. The shares or the extent of the claimant's entitlement will be credited to the Demat account of the claimant.

Please note that the time it takes to Share recover from the IEPF may vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case. For example, if the company's verification report is delayed, it may take longer for the IEPF Authority to make a decision on the claimant's application.

Here are some tips to help you recover your shares from the IEPF more quickly:

  • Make sure to submit your claim as soon as possible after you become aware that your shares have been transferred to the IEPF.
  • Provide all of the required documents with your claim.
  • Keep track of the status of your claim by checking the IEPF website regularly.
