Sir,

In accordance with Investor Education & Protection Fund (Accounting, Audit, Transfer, and Refund) Rules, 2016, notified on 05.09.2016, it is mandatory for the companies depositing amounts to IEPF under section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013 to :-

(i) generate challan online only

(ii) file form IEPF-1 mentioning the SRN No. of challan (online mode only).

3. This issues with the approval of the Competent Authority.
