Dematerialization is the process by which a shareholder's physical share certificates are converted into an equivalent number of electronic shares and credited into their Demat Account. To dematerialize your FGP Limited physical shares:
- Step 1: Open a Demat Account with any Depository Participant (DP) registered with NSDL or CDSL (typically your bank or stockbroker).
- Step 2: Obtain a DRF (Demat Request Form) from your DP. Fill it out completely and sign it. Note that your signatures must match the specimen signature registered with FGP's RTA.
- Step 3: Deface your physical share certificates by writing "SURRENDERED FOR DEMATERIALIZATION" across them.
- Step 4: Submit the completed DRF along with the physical share certificates to your DP.
- Step 5: The DP will generate a Demat Request Number (DRN) and forward the physical certificates to our Registrar & Share Transfer Agent, Bigshare Services Pvt. Limited, for verification and credit to your electronic account.
Important: Shareholders are highly encouraged to dematerialize their physical holdings, as SEBI mandates that transfers of securities can only be executed in dematerialized form.
All administrative requests, including change of address, bank mandate updates, split/consolidation of physical certificates, transmission of shares, and non-receipt of dividends should be directed to our registered Registrar & Share Transfer Agent (RTA):

Dividends that remain unpaid or unclaimed for a period of seven years from the date of transfer to the Unpaid Dividend Account are required to be transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) established by the Central Government. To claim unclaimed dividends:
- For Dividends under 7 Years Old: Write a formal letter of request to our RTA, Bigshare Services, quoting your Folio Number / DP ID & Client ID. The RTA will verify your signatures and bank records and issue a demand draft / electronic bank credit directly.
- For Dividends Transferred to IEPF: Shareholders must submit an online application in Form IEPF-5 on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) portal (mca.gov.in). After submitting, print a copy of the form and send it along with requisite verification documents (original physical share certificates, identity proofs, etc.) to the Nodal Officer of FGP Limited at our Registered Office for verification.
Transmission of shares occurs by operation of law when a shareholder passes away. To request transmission of physical shares to the legal heirs/survivors, submit the following documents to our RTA:
- For Joint Holdings: Simply submit a formal transmission request letter signed by the surviving shareholder, along with an original or notarized copy of the Demise Certificate.
- For Sole Holdings (With Nomination): Submit the Transmission Form, notarized Demise Certificate, Client Master List (CML) of the nominee's Demat account, and signed proof of identity of the nominee.
- For Sole Holdings (Without Nomination): Legal heirs must submit the Transmission Form, notarized Demise Certificate, along with probate of the Will, Succession Certificate, or Letters of Administration. If the value of shares is within SEBI limits, an indemnity bond and NOC from other legal heirs can be submitted.
