New Delhi: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), Ministry of Corporate Affairs, jointly organized the fourth “Niveshak Shivir” at Jaipur, Rajasthan on December 06, 2025. This investor outreach initiative aims to assist shareholders in reclaiming unpaid dividends and unclaimed shares and thereby, reduce the volume of unclaimed investor assets in the system.
The Shivir was organized in collaboration with key Market Infrastructure Institutions (MIIs) - NSE, NSDL, BSE & CDSL and Registrar and Transfer Agents (RTAs) - KFin Technologies Ltd., MUFG Intime India Pvt. Ltd., Bigshare Services Pvt. Ltd., CAMS & Purva Sharegistry India Pvt. Ltd.
The day-long Shivir witnessed enthusiastic participation from over 301 investors and claimants from Jaipur and surrounding areas.
The event featured 22 dedicated service desks under one roof, offering end-to-end assistance on:
· The process for claiming dividends and shares that have remained unclaimed for over six years;
· On-the-spot updating of KYC and nomination details;
· Prompt resolution of claim-related issues;
· Processing of pending claims submitted to IEPFA
The Niveshak Shivir enabled direct facilitation of unpaid dividends and claims pending for over six to seven years, provided on-the-spot KYC and nomination updates, and addressed IEPFA claim issues.
Dedicated kiosks were set up by stakeholder companies and RTAs, allowing investors to interact directly with officials and eliminate the need for intermediaries.
This fourth edition of the Niveshak Shivir series underscores SEBI and IEPFA’s shared commitment to investor protection and financial empowerment. Similar events are proposed to be conducted in other cities with significant unclaimed investor assets.
