Is the same provision applicable to interest on bonds that cumulates and received as maturity value?
No claim shall be made with respect to amount transferred to such fund...
As per companies act 2013 ' no any shareholder can be claimed any unclaimed dividend which transfer to investor education & protection fund. These fund are used by central governments to awareness of investor
