Share Transfer
Transferring shares in a Private Limited Company requires more than just signing a document — it involves proper documentation, board approval, stamp duty, and filing with the MCA. At Compliance Baba, we handle your share transfer end-to-end — legally, smoothly, and in full compliance with the Companies Act, 2013.
✅ What is a Share Transfer?
Share Transfer is the legal process of transferring ownership from one shareholder to another. In a Private Limited Company, the transfer is subject to restrictions in the Articles of Association (AOA) and requires board approval before being recorded in the register of members.
A proper share transfer helps maintain clean cap tables, avoids legal disputes, and ensures all ROC records remain up to date.
