You may write to Ms Bina Chandarana(bina.chandarana@kotak.com), Company Secretary & Senior Vice President furnishing the details/ particulars of the dividend not received quoting your folio number or client ID particulars. We will check our records and issue a duplicate dividend warrant if the dividend remains unpaid as per the records of the company.
During the validity of the original warrant no duplicate can be issued. Thus, if the validity period of the lost dividend warrant has not yet expired, you will have to wait till the expiry date. However, once the validity period has expired, if the dividend warrant is still shown as unpaid in our Bank Statement, a duplicate warrant shall be issued to you on receipt of application from you.
As per the present law, the company retains all unpaid/ unclaimed dividends for the past seven years. If you have not received any of the past years dividends, you may write to Ms Bina Chandarana, Company Secretary & Senior Vice President with relevant particulars like folio number, concerned dividend etc. and we shall arrange to pay the dividend if it remains unpaid as per our records.
If you hold shares in the physical form, please submit your folio number, name, details of bank and account number to Ms Bina Chandarana, Company Secretary & Senior Vice President and we shall incorporate the same in all your future dividend warrants. However, if you hold the shares in dematerialised form, these details will have to be provided to the Depository Participant with whom you have a dematerialisation account. Your Depository Participant in turn will pass on this information to the company. This procedure is in accordance with depository regulations.
