Reclaim-Old-Godrej-Consumer-Products-Ltd-Shares-from-IEPF

KIN~UNKNOWN

If you or your parents invested in Godrej Consumer Products Ltd (GCPL) years ago, you may be sitting on a hidden treasure worth lakhs or even crores. Many investors are unaware that their old physical share certificates or unclaimed dividends have multiplied in value due to bonus issues and stock splits over the years.
For example, if you held 100 shares of GCPL before June 2017 (face value ₹1), after the corporate actions, those shares would have grown to 300 shares. At today’s share price of approximately ₹1,284.60, those 300 shares are worth ₹3,85,380 (Three lakh eighty-five thousand three hundred eighty only).

Godrej Consumer Products Ltd Bonus and Split History
• 2006 Stock Split: Shares split from face value ₹4 to ₹1, turning 100 shares into 400 shares.
• June 2017 Bonus Issue (1:1): 400 shares doubled to 800 shares.
• September 2018 Bonus Issue (1:2): 800 shares tripled to 2,400 shares.
This means that a small investment decades ago could now be worth a significant amount.
