Why you need it

When you need it

For transmitting a deceased member's share/membership record through the society's statutory process. S.21, Punjab Co-operative Societies Act, 1961 lets the society transfer to the nominee or, absent one, the heir/legal representative. State the deceased member, death certificate, certificate and succession basis — nomination alone doesn't decide title where a separate will, probate or registration process is needed. Punjab: Act, Rules; Chandigarh: same Act, 1963 Rules. Rival claims: Registrar, s.55.
