In whose name the share need to be transferred?
Who are the legal heirs?
Whether society has asked for the same?
How are you concerned with the query?
Generally Succession certificate is applicable for the transfer of movable property.

Reply to points raised by expert Mr. Rajendra K Goyal .
Succession is as per personal law that applies to deceased owner.
There is NO nomination, hence legal heir certificate may also be acceptable............
In case of objections and dispute the society may press for succession certificate.
Go thru Bye Laws and relate with Model Bye Laws.

Since you belong to Muslim community hence Shariat law applies. Since society may not be aware of it hence will need a certificate from court.
