In a significant move aimed at protecting investor rights, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has announced a special six-month window—from July 7, 2025, to January 6, 2026—for shareholders to re-lodge their transfer deeds related to physical share certificates.
This special dispensation applies to cases where the transfer documents were originally lodged before April 1, 2019, but were rejected or returned due to deficiencies such as signature mismatch, incomplete documents, or non-compliance with procedural requirements.
Key Highlights:
Special Window Period: July 7, 2025 – January 6, 2026
Mandatory Dematerialisation: All securities re-lodged during this window must be processed and issued in demat form only
Coverage: Includes all such pending cases with companies or Registrars and Transfer Agents (RTAs)
SEBI has directed all listed companies and their respective RTAs to ensure seamless processing of such re-lodged transfer-cum-demat requests in strict compliance with existing SEBI regulations.
What This Means for Investors
This special window offers a last opportunity to reclaim and convert old physical shares—often rejected in the past—into dematerialised holdings, thereby enabling investors to sell, transfer, or pledge these shares through electronic platforms. It is a welcome relief, especially for those who have long been stuck in procedural limbo.
Investors holding such physical shares are advised to act promptly and consult with qualified professionals to ensure proper re-lodgement within the window period.
