Dear Amruta,
It is from the date of transfer of amount to the unpaid dividend account i.e. 30 days from the date of declaration of dividend in AGM. Pl go through the provisions of Section 205A(5) of the Companies Act, 1956.

Section 205A- The Company must transfer the total amount of dividend which remains unpaid/unclaimed to "Unpaid Dividend Account" within 7 days from the date of the expiry of 30 days mentioned above.
