Dear Priti,
There can be more then two joint holders of the share of the company. There is no limit for that.
However dividend will be credited in the account of person whose name appears first in company's share register.
Partners may by mutual understading purchase share of the company in joint ownership. but it would not be considered that Partnership firm is acquiring share of the company.

Thank You Bhavin for your reply
Still it is not clear to me because as per KR Chandratre one or more shares in a company, listed as well as non-listed, can be held by not more than three persons jointly.*
