Consult your (or some other) local chartered accountant /company secretary.

Yes.  Consult a local CA/CS.

This is possible, but being  a complex transaction involving Company Law, Securities Law, and Income Tax Law. You should take assistance of  a legal and tax professional  to ensure proper compliance.

Transferring equity shares to a newly formed Private Limited Company as capital contribution is possible, but it's complex.

You'll need to consider: -

 *Tax Implications*: Capital gains tax might apply when transferring shares to the company. -

*Company Compliance*: Ensure the new company's objects clause allows share investments. -

*Share Transfer Process*: Follow SEBI and BSE/NSE regulations. -

*Demat Account*: Shares need to be transferred to the company's Demat account.

Consult a corporate lawyer or tax consultant to guide you through the process and potential tax liabilities. 

They can help with documentation and compliance.
