The fund comprises unclaimed amounts such as unpaid dividends, application money for securities, matured deposits, and debentures, along with interest accrued on these amounts, and grants or donations. These amounts must remain unclaimed for seven years before being credited to the IEPF. The fund is utilized to promote investor awareness and protect investor interests.
