There are case laws stating HUF can not be created. It is very much in existence as in your case. There was no need to show the said shares in income tax returns. (Wealth tax return is a separate return by itself) Now you want to transfer these shares to your smaller HUF right? You can very well do that... no problem

In my openion this is disputable as you have showen these shares in your personal itr and these same are in your personal demate a/c therefore it seems problem to create common hotcpot of huf.
