Transmission of shares


This query is : Resolved 

18 July 2012 Dear Members,

Please provide a detailed procedure of "Transmission of Shares" and what are the documents to be used in same procedure.

Thanks...

18 July 2012 Hi


Requirement of documents for transmission of shares:


Where title to shares comes to vest in another person by operation of law, it is not necessary to execute and submit transfer deed. A simple application to the company by a legal representative along with the following necessary evidences is sufficient:—

(i) Certified copy of death certificate;
(ii) Succession certificate;
(iii) Probate;
(iv) Specimen signature of the successor.

However, requirement of these certificates is not essential and depends on various circumstances of the case. Where a succession certificate has been granted in respect of shares, the company cannot insist on the production of probate or letters of administration; the certificate affords full indemnity to company. [Thenappa Chettiar v Indian Overseas Bank Ltd. (1943) 13 Comp Cas 202 (Mad)].

Since the transmission is by operation of law, neither consideration for transfer nor stamp duty is required on instruments for transmission.

18 July 2012 Do check whether the shareholder has made any nominee or not.In case of nominee the Share will get to the Nominee.
