The Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA), under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, in collaboration with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), successfully organised Niveshak Shivir in Hyderabad today at Haryana Bhavan, Secunderabad.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The one-day camp witnessed enthusiastic participation from investors across Telangana, providing them with a single-window facilitation platform to resolve issues related to unclaimed dividends, shares, and other investor services.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The event was graced by Smt. Anita Shah Akella, CEO of IEPFA and Joint Secretary, Ministry of Corporate Affairs; Shri Jeevan Sonparote, Executive Director, SEBI; Shri Sunil Jayawant Kadam, Executive Director, SEBI; Lt. Col Aditya Sinha, General Manager, IEPFA; Shri Binod Sharma, General Manager, SEBI; Shri Sudhish Pillai, Head \u2013 CDSL IPF Secretariat, Shri Kiran Patil \u2013 BSE IPF along with other senior officials from IEPFA, SEBI, Market Infrastructure Institutions (MIIs), and Registrars & Transfer Agents (RTAs) also participated in the event.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Over 360 claimants participated actively in the event, which also attracted investors and stakeholders from Hyderabad and nearby regions.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Following the successful pilot in Pune earlier this year, Hyderabad became the next city to host the initiative, furthering IEPFA\u2019s vision of building an investor-centric financial ecosystem across the country. The camp proved to be an important step in ensuring that investors not only had their grievances addressed on the spot but also gained greater awareness of their rights and responsibilities.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Niveshak Shivir enabled direct facilitation of unpaid dividend accounts pending for over six to seven years, provided on-the-spot KYC and nomination updates, and resolved long-standing IEPFA claim issues. Dedicated kiosks were set up by stakeholder companies and Registrars & Transfer Agents (RTAs), allowing investors to interact directly with officials and eliminate the need for intermediaries. Alongside this, financial literacy sessions equipped participants with essential knowledge on safe investing and fraud prevention.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Adding further value to the event, CDSL launched an insightful Investor to assist investors in resolving queries related to the claims process.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The engagement also highlighted Arth Chitra, launched under IEPFA\u2019s Kushal Niveshak initiative. Arth Chitra is a national-level online poster-making competition that encourages citizens of all age groups to creatively express key concepts of financial literacy such as saving, investing, budgeting, and fraud prevention, making financial awareness more engaging, accessible, and impactful.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Hundreds of investors benefitted from seamless interactions with company representatives, RTAs, and officials from IEPFA and SEBI. The initiative was particularly appreciated for its efficiency in addressing pending grievances and simplifying processes that traditionally take months to resolve.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Looking Ahead<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Hyderabad\u2019s Niveshak Shivir is part of a nationwide series of outreach programs in cities with high concentrations of unclaimed investments. These camps highlight IEPFA\u2019s unwavering commitment to enhancing investor awareness, safeguarding financial interests, and ensuring transparency, accessibility, and trust in India\u2019s financial ecosystem.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
