Transfer Of Shares
Why Do Companies Put a “Stop Transfer” on a Folio?
Signature Mismatch
A transfer deed lodged with a signature that does not match the specimen signature on record.
Lost Certificate Reported
A complaint from the original shareholder (or heirs) alleging the certificate was lost or stolen.
Dispute Over the Transfer
A dispute between transferor and transferee regarding consideration, validity, or execution of the deed.
Court Case / Police Complaint
An existing court case, injunction, or police complaint relating to those specific shares.
Duplicate Certificate Already Issued
A duplicate certificate issued after the original was reported lost — invalidating the original for further processing.
Liability Protection for the RTA
A wrongful release could expose the company and RTA to liability — so they require a court to determine entitlement.
How We Get Your Shares Released
Once a folio is under stop transfer, the path to resolution generally involves five legal steps — each of which our in-house legal team handles on your behalf.
Step 1:
Folio & Document Audit
We obtain a status report from the company / RTA confirming the stop transfer, the reason recorded against the folio, and the exact documents or order they will accept to release it.
Step 2:
Establishing Title & Cause of Action
We review the original transfer deed, share certificate (or evidence of its loss), payment proof, and correspondence to determine the correct legal route — a civil suit for declaration of title and specific performance, a petition for rectification of the register of members, or another appropriate proceeding.
Step 3:
Filing Before the Competent Forum
Depending on the dispute, the matter may be filed before a civil court of competent jurisdiction, or for rectification of the register of members, before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) under Section 59 of the Companies Act, 2013. Where the seller is untraceable or uncooperative, we also handle the required public notices and service procedures.
Step 4:
Obtaining the Order
We represent the case through to a final order directing the company to lift the stop transfer and either register the transfer / rectify the register in favour of the rightful party, or release the shares for credit into their demat account.
Step 5:
Execution — Demat Credit
Once the order is in hand, we coordinate with the company / RTA and your Depository Participant (DP) to ensure the shares are credited into your demat account, in compliance with current SEBI requirements that such releases be made only in dematerialised form.

Common Questions
No. There is no overall time bar on recovering shares you legitimately paid for, although delay can affect the evidence and strategy involved. We regularly handle cases involving transactions from the 1980s and 1990s.
This is a common scenario. Where a seller who already received payment is unwilling to complete the formalities, the appropriate remedy is typically a civil suit for specific performance / declaration of title, supported by the original transfer documents and proof of payment. Our legal team assesses the strongest route based on your specific paperwork.
Yes. Loss of the original certificate is addressed through an affidavit, indemnity, and (where required) a duplicate certificate process by the company, combined with the court order establishing your entitlement — since the folio will already be under stop transfer pending that order.
No. Under SEBI’s current framework, securities released after such proceedings are credited directly into a demat account rather than reissued as physical certificates.
Timelines vary by court, jurisdiction, and whether the matter is contested. We provide a realistic, case-specific timeline after reviewing your documents during the free case evaluation.
We work on a token advisory fee at the outset, with the balance of our fee linked to successful release / recovery of the shares — so our incentives are aligned with getting your case resolved.
