C. P. CHUGH (Expert) 25 March 2012
Private Ltd Companies are managed, mostly by close relative or group of individuals. Transfer of shares by one individual to another individual is subject to the approval of the Board and if approved by the board a new certificate is required to be issued to the new share holder. Hence there is a remote possibility to transfer share without the knowledge/approval of other shares holders.
