Hi @Mohammed_Muneer, Welcome To MadeForTrade!

Please note that Kwality Wall’s (India) Limited (Resulting Company) is not yet listed, it generally takes 30-45 days, once listed it will appear in your portfolio. you may read more here

@Mohseen_Usmani Shouldn’t the Kwality Wall’s shares show in the “Unlisted“ section?

Hello @Mohseen_Usmani Any responses? I believe “Unlisted“ section is there specially for such scenarios right. Why isn’t Kwality Walls showing up in the “Unlisted“ section?

Hi @nitishbangera, Sorry for missing this earlier.

The Unlisted section only shows securities that are already available in your demat account. In the case of Kwality Walls, the new entity has not yet been credited to demat due to the demerger process.

Once the shares are credited, they will automatically reflect there.

@Mohseen_Usmani Thank you for the response but during Tata Motors demerger, I had an intimation of TATA Motors CV on 14th Oct but it wasn’t shown in the Unlisted Section. I will notify once I have the intimation for Kwality Walls from CDSL so that I get to see it in the Unlisted Section.

@Mohseen_Usmani I confirm that Kwality Walls shares are getting shown in the Unlisted section now after receiving the intimation from CDSL yesterday in the evening.
