Why File Transfer, Transmission, Surrender & Allotment of Shares with CAC?
Properly filing a share transfer, transmission, surrender, or allotment prevents future disputes over ownership, builds investor confidence, and maintains the integrity of your company’s official records.
Each type of transaction serves a distinct purpose. Allotment is the issuance of new shares to raise capital, while transfer is the voluntary sale of existing shares. Transmission is an involuntary transfer due to death or bankruptcy, and surrender is a voluntary relinquishment of shares back to the company.
Legal Ownership Clarity: Filing ensures proper documentation of all share transactions, which prevents future disputes over ownership and provides legal clarity for all parties involved.
Compliance with CAC Regulations: This process keeps your company’s records up-to-date with the CAC, ensuring full compliance with legal requirements and avoiding penalties.
Seamless Ownership Transitions: Filing facilitates smooth transitions in ownership, whether due to inheritance, a shareholder's exit, or a corporate restructuring.
Flexibility in Shareholding Structure: It allows companies to adjust their capital structure strategically by issuing new shares (allotment), transferring ownership, or surrendering shares.
Capital Growth Opportunities: Allotment, in particular, enables companies to raise funds for expansion, bringing in new investors or rewarding existing ones through the issuance of new shares.
