By virtue of law of Es-cheat if shares are left behind by a deceased shareholder without appointing a nominee or without legal heirs State would take the shares. This is called escheat.

Please discuss the real problem instead of asking an academic query.

Probably you are referring to equity shares ……….. The regulator has issued proper guidelines and legal heirs get the shares as per value of shares and per guidelines by regulator.. The guidelines are available on website of regulator and similar query is discussed at LCI in many threads that have illustration and citations… YOU can search in search option

Pls post with your ID and you can get many replies. Your ID does not mean your email id or phone number and don’t post these also. Post which personal law applies in case of deceased.
