22 July 2013 Hi

No majority of shareholders can, by altering the articles retrospectively, affect, to the prejudice of the non-consenting owners of shares, the right already existing under a contract, nor take away the right already accrued, e.g., after a transfer of shares is lodged, the company cannot have a right of lien so as to defeat the transfer [Mathrubhumi Printing & Publishing Co. Ltd. v Vardhaman Publishers Ltd. (1992) 73 Comp Cas 80 (Ker)].
