An instrument on which the signature of the transferor is forged is called forged transfer. It is a null transfer and does not confer any title. It is so because in case of forgery there is not merely an absence of free consent but there is no consent at all. Hence, this transfer will never confer an ownership upon the transferee, however important the transaction may appear it. If the company registers any forged transfer, the real owner can apply to the company for the rectification and get his name placed back in the register.
