Transfer of shares in a private company is governed by AOA. Some steps followed by a private company to give effect to the transfer of shares are as follows:—
(i) Transferor should give a notice in writing to the company for his intention to transfer his share.
(ii) The company in turn notify to other members as regards the availability of shares and the price at which such share would be available to them along with the time limit within which they should communicate their option to purchase shares on transfer.
(iii) Such price is generally determined by the directors or the auditors of the company.
Now my question is, If more than one members comes forward to purchase shares then in what proportion the shares can be transferred to them ?
