Dear Experts, Kindly advice me upon the following case:
Mr. A holds 50,000 equity shares in a Private Limited Company. He has not made use of any nomination facility.
He is a Bachelor and his parents ceased long ago. Now suddenly Mr. A deceased and my query is to whom his shares would be transmitted? He has only a married sister. Please clarify me on the status of his shares. To whom these shares shall vest?
Whether the married sister can claim succession to his shares ?

Yes the shares can be transmitted to his married sister as well. She has to submit an affidavit and indemnity bond along with the death certificate and succession certificate.
