There's a company X. It got merged with a company Y. Now the person who was a shareholder in X has to get replica no. of shares in Y. Now the company comes to know that the shareholder is dead. Is there any legal provision which talks about such condition. The deceased person hasn't left any will or something. The allotment is necessary. Also, if we send a legal notice and there's a family dispute, what are we supposed to do? Also, in case the legal heir comes after 10 years to claim the shares after settling family disputes, what should be done?
