Hero Motocorp Limited ( (IN:HEROMOTOCO) ) has shared an update.

Hero MotoCorp has informed stock exchanges that it has sent letters to shareholders whose interim dividend for FY 2025-26 has been withheld due to non-compliance with updated Know Your Customer norms for physical shareholdings. The move follows a series of SEBI circulars mandating that physical security holders must update key KYC details, including PAN, contact information, bank account data and signatures, to be eligible for dividend and other payments, which will now be made only via electronic mode.

Under these regulations, dividends for affected folios have been put on hold and will be released only after the requisite KYC information is provided and updated in the company’s records. The communication underscores the tightening of regulatory standards around physical shareholdings and signals to investors that failure to update KYC details can delay corporate benefit payouts, reinforcing the broader industry shift toward compliant, fully digitized shareholder records.
