From Forgotten Papers to ?11 Lakh Jackpot: How a Chandigarh Man’s Old Reliance Shares Turned into Gold?

From Forgotten Papers to ?11 Lakh Jackpot: How a Chandigarh Man’s Old Reliance Shares Turned into Gold?


A Fortune Hidden in Plain Sight

Imagine this: you’re cleaning out old cupboards, expecting to find dusty files and expired warranty cards — but instead, you hit the jackpot. That’s exactly what happened to Rattan Dillon, a car enthusiast from Chandigarh.

During a regular spring cleaning, Rattan discovered a set of physical Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) share certificates from 1988. Back then, his family had bought 30 shares at ?10 each — a total investment of ?300.

Fast forward to 2025 — after three stock splits and two bonus issues, that small ?300 investment had grown into 960 shares — now worth ?11.88 lakh!


The Internet Reacts: A Mix of Humour & Financial Advice

Unsure of what to do with his newfound treasure, Rattan turned to social media for help. What he got was a mix of solid advice and comedy gold.

Here are some hilarious gems from his comments:

One user turned into a stock analyst: “30 shares after 3 splits and 2 bonuses = 960 shares. Current value? ?11.88 lakh. Not bad for old papers, huh?”

Another one quipped: “Bhai, lottery lag gayi! Convert them to demat — DM me if you need a ‘consultant’!”

The best one yet: “Rattan bhai, thoda aur safai karlo. Who knows, maybe MRF ke shares bhi mil jaayein!”

Rattan’s inbox quickly transformed into a mix of financial hotline and stand-up comedy night.

Why Do So Many Shares Go Unclaimed?

  • Rattan’s story is surprisingly common. Over the years, millions of shares in India end up unclaimed — often because people:
  • Shifted without updating their address
  • Misplace physical certificates
  • Forget about small investments made decades ago
  • Inherit shares without knowing


When shares or dividends remain untouched for 7 years, they get transferred to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) — a safety net set up by the government to hold unclaimed shares.

The silver lining? You can claim them back!

But here’s the catch — the process is lengthy, technical, and filled with paperwork.
