Chalange for you

Dear Priti,

Yes. The company can issue shares to any body including accountant also.

Amount paid to accountant for his service is "salary" by whatever name you call it, and salary is to be paid in cash and not in kind. Issuance of share in lieu of cash is alien to the company law and if and only if the accountant accepts, it can be paid through issue of shares.
