Karachi: Atlas Honda Limited has issued a notice regarding the loss of share certificates by shareholder Abdul Razzaq. The certificates, which represent a total of 520 shares, have been declared lost, triggering a regulatory procedure to manage potential market risks associated with such losses.

The lost certificates, under folio ABD0069 and numbered 697690, cover distinctive numbers from 103414222 to 103414741. Following this incident, reported to the company and subsequently to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), Atlas Honda has initiated a mandatory 07-day period during which the market participants are advised not to transact in these shares.

According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the loss of such certificates necessitates a cautionary period to allow for any objections or claims related to the shares to be filed. If no objections are raised within this period, the company will proceed with the issuance of duplicate certificates to the shareholder.

This process ensures the integrity of market transactions and protects the interests of both the shareholders and the company by preventing unauthorized trades or duplications of lost shares. It highlights the critical importance of securing physical share certificates and the swift response required when such incidents occur.
