Several reasons for dividend does not get claimed


  • Lost track of the funds owed to you.
  • Company/financial institution might have failed to locate Shareholder for dividend payment as contact and bank details change over the years but are not updated with the company.
  • You were not aware of the investments made by your parents; neither you had the complete records of those investments.
