Solution

Zinki Limited forfeited a share of ₹ 100 issued at a premium of 20% for non-payment of first call of ₹ 30 per share and final call of ₹ 10 per share. The minimum price at which this share can be reissued is ₹ 40.

Explanation:

Unpaid share capital = ₹ 30 + ₹ 10 = ₹ 40.

Therefore, amount forfeited out of face value is:

₹ 100 − ₹ 40 = ₹ 60

Maximum discount = ₹ 60, so minimum reissue price:

₹ 100 − ₹ 60 = ₹ 40​
