Share transfer refers to the process where a company shareholder voluntarily transfers their ownership rights and associated obligations.
This transaction occurs when a shareholder decides to relinquish their membership and passes on their share to another individual.
The transfer of shares in company law for a private company is governed by specific legal provisions to ensure compliance with corporate governance standards and to maintain the company's private status.
Section 56(1) & (3) of the Companies Act, 2013, alongside Rule 11(1) (2) (3) of the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014, lay down the framework for these transfers.
In Private Limited Companies, share transfer is governed by the Articles of Association (AOA), which must be consulted before initiating any transfer.
Shareholders' constraints of the transfer of shares in the company are as follows:
Shareholders wishing to sell their shares must offer them first to the company's existing members at a price set by the Company's Directors or Auditor. The valuation method for shares should be outlined in the Articles of Association. Should there be no interest from current shareholders, the shares can be transferred to someone outside the company.
The Articles of Association may empower a director to decline a share transfer to another individual. This grants directors significant authority over share transfer decisions in a Private Limited Company.
The individuals who originally subscribed to the company's memorandum and formed the company.
A person appointed to represent the interests of the deceased shareholder during the share transfer process.
The current shareholder wishing to transfer shares to another individual.
The recipient of the shares being transferred.
The company facilitating the transfer of shares, whether publicly traded or privately held.
For a successful completion of the procedure for transfer of shares in a private company, several documents are required to ensure the transfer complies with legal standards.
The procedure for transfer of shares in a private company adheres to the company's Articles of Association (AOA) and relevant legal guidelines.
The procedure begins with the shareholder wishing to transfer shares, following the rules laid out in the Articles of Association (AOA).
Examine the AOA for any transfer restrictions or conditions that must be met before the transfer can take place.
The shareholder intending to transfer shares must formally notify the company's director of their intention.
Establish the share price according to the AOA, typically set by the directors or the company auditor. This price is the initial offer made to existing shareholders.
The company must inform all shareholders about the available shares, including details like the offer price and the deadline for expressing interest.
If any current shareholders are interested, they should be allocated first. If no interest is shown, or there are remaining shares, they can be offered to external parties.
