VST Industries (BSE: 509966, NSE: VSTIND) has notified shareholders holding physical shares about the requirement to furnish Know Your Customer (KYC) details, in compliance with SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, Regulation 30.

The company has dispatched letters to identified shareholders holding shares in physical form, requesting KYC details be updated with KFin Technologies Limited, the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent (RTA).

KYC forms are available on the company's website at https://www.vsthyd.com/mainsite/other-information.html and the RTA's website at https://ris.kfintech.com/clientservices/isc/isrforms.aspx.

SEBI's circular dated November 03, 2021, mandates that all holders of physical securities must update their folios with KYC, including PAN, nomination choice, contact details, mobile number, email, bank account details, and signature. A subsequent circular dated March 16, 2023, specifies that security holders without KYC-registered folios will be unable to lodge grievances or avail service requests from the RTA until compliance. Payments, including dividends, interest, or redemption, will be made electronically only after KYC compliance.
