Share transfer is the legal process by which ownership of shares in a company is moved from one person or entity (the transferor) to another (the transferee). This fundamental activity is crucial for maintaining the fluidity and tradability of a company's equity, facilitating various financial transactions, inheritances, gifts, and market trading.
At Korrectax, we simplify the often intricate process of share transfer, ensuring a smooth, compliant, and hassle-free experience for all parties involved, whether the shares are held in physical or dematerialized form.
The method of share transfer largely depends on whether the shares are held physically or in a dematerialized (demat) account.
For shares held in physical form, the process typically involves:
Execution of Transfer Deed: The transferor and transferee must sign a share transfer deed, which is a legal document specifying the details of the shares being transferred, the consideration (if any), and the parties involved. This deed must be duly stamped.
Submission of Documents: The completed transfer deed, along with the original share certificates, PAN cards of both parties, and address proofs, are submitted to the company or its Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA).
Verification and Approval: The company/RTA verifies the authenticity of the signatures, documents, and the transfer deed. They may send an intimation to the transferor at their registered address to confirm the transfer.
Issuance of New Certificates: Upon successful verification and approval, the company registers the transfer and issues new share certificates in the name of the transferee, or endorses the existing certificates, usually within a specified timeframe (e.g., 30 days from submission).
Transferring shares held in a demat account is generally more streamlined and electronic:
Instruction to Depository Participant (DP): The transferor instructs their Depository Participant (DP) to debit the shares from their demat account. This instruction can be given through a Delivery Instruction Slip (DIS) or electronically through an online platform.
Transferee Details: The transferor provides the demat account details of the transferee (beneficiary owner ID and DP ID).
Electronic Transfer: The DP processes the instruction, and the shares are electronically transferred from the transferor's demat account to the transferee's demat account on the settlement date (for market trades) or immediately for off-market transfers, provided all details match.
Confirmation: Both the transferor and transferee receive confirmation from their respective DPs once the transfer is successfully completed.
