Understanding Transfer of Shares
The shares of a company are a movable asset and its ownership can be transferred from one person to another. An existing shareholder can transfer the shares held to other individual or entity by following certain prescribed guidelines as stated for share transfers.
With a motive to secure rights of investors and shareholders, the Government of India came forward with a certain set of rules specified under Section 56 of The Companies Act, 2013. As per the Act’s guidelines, the Company must register itself for Transfer of Securities to serve the ownership transfers, according to the format laid down in Form No SH. 4. In case a Company doesn’t acquire share capital, it cannot register itself for Transfer of Securities.
Key Reasons for Transfer of Shares
Succession
Shareholder can transfer the ownership of their shares to their spouse or sibling or to other family members, maintaining the ownership within the family only.
Restructuring
Any Company reorganizing its ownership structure can also choose to transfer its shares in accordance with the duly specified ratio.
Exit
Shareholders can leave a Company by selling their shares to existing shareholders or other individuals by transferring or exchanging their ownership in monetary terms.
Takeover
Often a company taking over another entity can choose to transfer its shares, because shares define the Company’s ownership.

Transfer of share is managed by the Articles of Association (AoA) of a Company, the shares to be transferred first offered to the existing members. Shares, however, can only be transferred to an individual when existing members decline to accept the shares first offered to them.
The share transfer process is a bit complex due to the set rigorous provisions under the Company law as well as applicability of state stamp act that differs from state to state.
