Eicher Motors Shares Recovery: Old Certificates, the 2020 Split, Unclaimed Dividends and IEPF
Many families hold old Eicher Motors certificates with a face value of ₹10, often in a parent's name and untouched for years. Since the 2020 split, each of those shares has become ten. Expertvuw helps families confirm the current entitlement and recover the holding through the official route.
Eicher Motors shares and dividends can still be claimed. In August 2020 the company split each ₹10 share into ten shares of ₹1 (record date 25 August 2020), so an old certificate now represents ten times the number of shares written on it. Eicher's registrar is MUFG Intime India Private Limited (formerly Link Intime India). Shares whose dividends stayed unpaid for seven consecutive years move to the IEPF and are claimed back through Form IEPF-5.
Why Eicher Motors shares go unclaimed
- Old ₹10 certificates: often in a parent's name and not checked for decades.
- The 2020 split: families do not realise that one old share is now ten.
- Dividends not received: old addresses, closed bank accounts or incomplete KYC.
- The seven-year rule: under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, shares on which dividends are unpaid for seven consecutive years are transferred to IEPF. Eicher sends individual notices before each transfer and publishes them on its website.
Where an Eicher holding can sit today
| Where | What it means | Route |
|---|---|---|
| Physical folio with the registrar | Live holding, records may be out of date | KYC update (Forms ISR-1, ISR-2) and demat through the registrar |
| Unpaid dividend account | Dividends of recent years not yet credited | Claim letter to the registrar before the transfer date |
| IEPF | Shares and dividends transferred after seven years | Form IEPF-5, signed copy to the company's registered office |
How Eicher share recovery works, in broad stages
- Confirm the holding and its current entitlement after the 2020 split.
- Correct the records: KYC, names, and transmission after a death.
- Claim from the right place: the registrar for live folios, or the IEPF Authority for transferred shares.
- Credit: shares go only to the claimant's own demat account and dividends only to their own bank account.

Frequently asked questions
My Eicher certificate shows a face value of ₹10. How many shares is it today?
Eicher Motors split each ₹10 share into ten shares of ₹1 in August 2020 (record date 25 August 2020). So each old ₹10 share became ten shares, before counting any later corporate actions. We confirm the current entitlement with the registrar.
Who is the registrar for Eicher Motors shares?
Eicher Motors' IEPF notices name MUFG Intime India Private Limited (formerly Link Intime India) as its registrar and transfer agent. Use the contact details published by the company.
How do I stop my Eicher shares going to IEPF?
Claim the unpaid dividend from the registrar, with complete KYC, before the transfer date given in the company's notice. Incomplete requests do not stop the transfer.
My Eicher shares have already gone to IEPF. What now?
File Form IEPF-5 online and send the signed documents to Eicher Motors' registered office, marked as a claim for refund from the IEPF Authority, for verification.
Can an NRI claim Eicher shares without travelling to India?
Usually yes. Documents can be signed and notarised or apostilled abroad and sent to India.
