Dear Vibha

Your question is not clear. Please elaborate the same.

However, what I understant is that company can hold share in its Demat account upon getting the share in its name by its director. I am presuming transfer means transfer of ownership as well.

If Articles is providing that a director should hold qualification shares then if he transfers the shares to company provided it does not affect his qualification entries and if he transfers shares to the company, it is not transfer its buy back for the company, the company must be authorised by a resolution for buying back the shares. for buyback this is the entry.

Shares Bought Back A/c Dr xxxxx

To Bank a/c

and to the extent of face value of shares bought back

Share capital A/c Dr xxxxx

To Shares Bought Back a/c

and difference to be transfered to revenue reserve (dr balance)

Mr. Vibha if you solved the issue, kindly tell me the same how you did....

If a director transfers his shares to other companies other than the company which issued then depending upon the holding period it will be a sale a taxable as income from capital gain
