Every company-public or private is to maintain a Register of Members. Every person whose name is entered in the Register of Members is a member of

the company, whereas a person who holds shares of the company is a shareholder. Generally, these two terms-member and shareholder are used

interchangeably, but they differ in their legal terms. All shareholders are members and all members are shareholders expt in a few cases where these

two are not the same. For example, a holder of a share warrant is a shareholder but not a member of the company. On the other hand, a deceased

person is a member so long as his name is on the Register of Members whereas he cannot be termed as a shareholder.
