The transferees have to execute the transfer deeds seperately (Form 7B)(remember its validity for private company is for two months) alongwith share certificates issued and share transfer stamps and require to lodge them with the Company. The Company, after receiving approves the transfer if signatures are matched with record and sent back to the address entered at the back side of transfer deed.
Thereafter Company updates the members register accordingly.
If only two members are their and they wants to transfer the entire shareholding, then the same procedure is required but minimum number of members in pvt. ltd. company in any case needs to have two.
