If the auction buyer is producing the sale certificate and the registered sale deed on his name for the property he purchased through auction sale invoking the provisions of SARFAESI act, the society cannot refuse to issue a fresh share certificate to the new buyer.  The society can cancel the old share certificate on the basis of the documentary evidences produced before it along with an application seeking to cancel the same and transfer the share certificate in favor of the new purchase of the property.

Bank insists on deposit of original at the  time of disbursement of loan, it seems they are not so deposited. In such case duplicate certificates can be issued to auction purchaser. With declaration  that previous are cancelled.

Society has to be informed about theft or loss of original share certificate .you have to make application for issue of duplicate share certificate.enclose copy of FIR .indemnity bond to indemnify society in case of third party claims being made 

 

society would issue of public notice before issue of duplicate share certificate if no objections are received within period of 15 days of issue of public  notice society would issue duplicate share certificate

As the certificate is not deposited, it is not possible to recover the  same from debtor. It was lapse on bank’s part. But lapse can be overcome by releasing a second certificate  cancelling the  earlier by making a declaration  to that effect.

If the society has issued a fresh share certificate to the new buyer based on the sale certificate and sale deed on auction sale, then the records of the society in this regard would automatically updated as per the latest status.

Therefore the share certificate already in your possession shall be deemed to be cancelled, hence you may not be permitted to claim any rights in the activities of the society.

If you file any complaint that your original is misplaced or not in existence then only a duplicate is issued by society on indemnity bond

- Yes, the society can issue a duplicate share certificate even without recalling the original , if the property is sold to other person and he produced the documents in support of the ownership. 

-  Since, the said property is already registered in others name by the bank in auction ,then the purchaser can produce the supporting documents before the society to issue share certificate in his name.

You cannot have 2 share certificates 

 

duplicate is issued only if original is lost or misplaced or stolen 

 

society will cancel duplicate if original is produced

For a sale under the Sarfaesi Act, no such formalities are required. As your property has already been sold, you shall automatically lose your membership.
