Solution

A person having insufficient assets to meet debts and liabilities is called an insolvent. It is illegal for an insolvent person to enter into any contract or agreement with another person. When a member of a company is declared by the court of law as insolvent. His official receiver or assignee transfers his shares in favour of his creditor in settlement of his debts. On such transfer of shares, the membership of the insolvent member is terminated. Thus, an insolvent person ceases to be a member of the company.
