Working Notes:
Calculation of amount transferred to DRR
|
Amount of DRR (25 % of Debentures) `= 2000000 xx 25/100` = |
500000 |
| Less : Amount already exists in DRR | 350000 |
| DRR to be created for redemption | 150000 |
Note:
1. The year of transfer to DRR and investment has been assumed to be in 2014 in order to maintain consistency with the guidelines issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs which requires that every company required to create/maintain DRR shall on or before the 30th day of April of each year, deposit or invest, as the case may be, a sum which shall not be less than fifteen percent of the amount of its debentures maturing during the year ending on the 31st day of March next following year. Accordingly, entries for DRR and investment if passed in any of the year then redemption would take place in the following year.
