Solution
(1) Transfer of shares refers to the passing of ownership and possession of shares from a shareholder to another person by way of sale or gift. The shares cannot be transferred by mere delivery.
(2) The transfer of shares is affected by registering an instrument called ‘Instrument of Transfer’ with the company. When the company approves of the transfer, the Secretary strikes off (cancels) the name of the seller (transferor) from the Register of Members, and thus the membership of the shareholder who has transferred the shares is terminated.
