Send a Query to Company's Management

Hello Investors,

Many a times, we make an investment in the company without going through much needed information and then after sometime, we realize that we need to get those information from the company's management. 

When I was new, I used to ask the company's personnel directly via email but most of the times, I wouldn't get the reply. Then I researched when are the companies bound to reply. Found pretty interesting and sensible stuff.

Investor Rights: As an investor of any company, we have full right of information regarding that company. Many investor might not know but the company management have to give the reply to any query that is sent via email.  

Company's Rights: The company is not liable or bound to reply to all the queries sent by investors. But they have to reply to the query which has specific information sent. That information is regarding the investment done by an investor.

There are many clauses given in right of Investors by SEBI. While we invest in a particular stock, we have some privileges and I sincerely request that we, as an investor should use those privileges. This makes the management aware that there is hard earned money invested by people in the company that they are leading.

To contact any company's management or regarding any queries, company with string management have formed a department which deals specially with Investor Grievances. You should easily find the email id specially allocated for investor grievances. Go to their website and chec k if the email id is present in the section of 'Investor Relations'. If you are unable to find it, check 'Contact Us'. 

If you are still unable to find it, don't worry. Check who is the Company Secretary of the company. Company Secretary is a personnel who has all the responsibility and rights to attend the investor complaints. If he is unable to reply back to the query, we can register a complaint regarding this to the SEBI. Once you get to know CS of the company, you can ask directly to the Corporate Office regarding his email address.


IMPORTANT Info:
