Transmission of shares refers to the process of transferring ownership of shares from one person to another without a sale or purchase transaction. This transfer typically occurs due to specific events or circumstances, such as the death of a shareholder, inheritance, or legal requirements. The primary objective of transmission of shares is to ensure that the rightful owner or beneficiary gains control of the shares.
Here are some key aspects of share transmission:
Death of a Shareholder: The most common reason for share transmission is the death of a shareholder. When a shareholder passes away, their shares need to be transferred to their legal heirs or beneficiaries as per their will or applicable laws of inheritance.
Inheritance: Share transmission often involves the Transfer of shares to legal heirs or beneficiaries mentioned in the deceased shareholder's will. In cases where there is no will, inheritance laws and legal procedures determine how the shares are distributed among the heirs.
Succession Certificate: To facilitate share transmission after a shareholder's death, the legal heirs may need to obtain a succession certificate from a competent authority, such as a court. This certificate establishes their right to inherit and manage the deceased shareholder's assets, including shares.
Probate: If the deceased shareholder left a will, the process of obtaining probate from the relevant court may be necessary. Probate is a legal confirmation of the will's authenticity and the executor's authority to distribute assets as specified in the will, including shares.
