What is meant by an ‘Irredeemable Debenture’?

उत्तर
Irredeemable Debentures are those debentures that are not repayable or redeemable by a company during its lifetime. These debentures can only be repaid when the company is being wound up. These are also known as Perpetual Debentures, which means they are debentures with an indefinite life. In India, nowadays, no company can issue irredeemable debentures.
