Shares that enjoy preferential dividends and capital repayments when the Debentures is liquidated instead of shares are called preferred share . Holders of preferred shares receive fixed rate of interest dividends.
Types of Preferred Shares
B. Shares
Shares aren't preferred shares. Shares don't provide a preferential benefit in terms of dividends or capital repayments. Therefore, these are referred to as common shares. there's no fixed dividend rate paid to shareholders, and this rate can vary from year to year. At the time of liquidation, equity capital are going to be repaid last. However, shareholders do have full voting rights.
Types of Share Capital
Difference between Equity Shares and Preference Shares
Equity Shares | Preference Shares |
1 It is an ownership security 2 Dividend rate is not fixed 3 Capital is repaid only in winding up 4 These shares have voting rights 5 Face value is lower |
4 These shares generally do not have voting rights 5 Face value is higher |
Issue of Share Capital
Shares can be issued at face value, premium, or discount. If a shareholder needs to pay the company the par value of the shares, the shares are said to be issued at par. Shares are said to be issued at a premium if shareholders are required to pay more than par by the company. Shares are said to be issued at a discounted price if shareholders need to pay the company less than par. For example, a company issues shares with a par value of Rs.10 at Rs.10. It's a par issue. When issued in Rs. 12, the problem is premium. If issued in Rs.8, the issue will be discounted.
The issue price of the shares can be received in one installment or in another installment. If the issue is a different installment payment, you may be paid for the application, allocation, and one or more calls. The application amount is called the application amount, the membership fee is called the allocated amount, and the rest is called the billed amount. According to the SEBI guidelines, the application fee issued must be at least 25% of the issue price (5% according to the Cos Act).
Share Allocation
Allocation of shares means accepting the applicant's offer to purchase shares. The Directors have the discretion to reject or accept the application. However, a public company cannot allocate its shares unless a minimum subscription is subscribed to by the general public and the amount of application is received. After allocating shares to applicants who will become shareholders of the company.

When Both Preferred Share and Share Are Issued
If the company issues both preferred shares and shares, the journal entries will be written separately for each type of equity capital.
Under Share Subscription
The application for shares received may be less than the number of shares issued. It is called under the subscription. In this case, the allotment will be the same as the number of tendered shares, not the number of issued shares.
Share Oversubscription
The application for shares accepted may exceed the number of shares issued. This is called oversubscription. If you have an oversubscription, you may not be able to issue shares to all applicants. In such situations, the Company shall reject some applications altogether, allocate the full amount to some applications, and prorate some applications. Proportioning is the ratio of the number of shares to be allotted to the number of shares to be applied, and is to be distributed to each application. If the application is completely rejected, it will be returned to the applicant. With proportional distribution, the excess is adjusted at the time of allocation or call. The surplus will be refunded to the applicant even after the adjustment. The journal is

Use of equation for determining the face value of shares to be issued
An equation can be applied when the given amount of premium in security premium A / c in the balance sheet plus amount of premium to be obtained from fresh issue of shares is not sufficient to pay premium on redemption of preference shares. premium A / c given in balance sheet cannot be used for redeeming the face value of shares.
(a) When fresh issue is to be made at a premium:
[Redeemable preference share capital + premium on redemption] = [{Balance in security premium A / c in B / S} + {Revenue profit available for redemption} + {N} + {N x% rate of premium on fresh issue}]
(b) When fresh issue of shares is to be made at a discount:
[Redeemable preference share capital + premium on redemption] = [{Balance in security premium A / c in B / S} + {Revenue profit available for redemption} + {N}-{N x% rate of discount on fresh issue}]
Note: N = Nominal value of fresh issue of shares to be made for redemption
Problem 13:
The amount of new shares to be issued will be determined from the following information related to A Ltd. Redeemable Preferred Stock Rs.200000, Redemption Premium 10%, Splitable Profit Rs.60000, General Reserve Balance Rs.40000, Security Premium A / c Rs.15000. If the new issue is (I) 5% premium and (II) 10% discount.
Redeemable preference share capital + premium on redemption] = [{Balance in security premium A/c in B/S} + {Revenue profit available for redemption} + {N} + {N x % rate of premium on fresh issue}]
[200000 + 20000] = [15000+ 60000+ 40000+N + 0.05N] 1.05N = 220000‐115000
N = 105000 = Rs. 100000
1.05
II.If fresh issue is made at a discount of 10%:
[Redeemable preference share capital + premium on redemption] = [{Balance in security premium A/c in B/S} + {Revenue profit available for redemption} + {N} ‐ {N x % rate of discount on fresh issue}]
[200000 + 20000] = [15000+ 60000+ 40000+N ‐ 0.1N] 0.9N = 220000‐115000
N = 105000 = Rs. 116667

Buy Back of Shares
Buyback is a way to cancel stock capital. That simply means buying your own stock. That leads to a decrease in the company's stock capital.
Purpose of Buy Back
Benefits of Buyback
Disadvantages of Buy Back
How to buy back
Following the SEBI guidelines, there are two ways to buy back shares. they are:
Classification of Issues
(A) Public Issues
(B) Rights Offering
(C) Bonus Issues
(D) Private Placement
Publication Issue:
When a security is issued / offered for subscription / purchase generally, it's called a public issue. Public offerings are often further divided into initial public offerings (IPOs) and post-public offerings (FPOs).
Initial Public Offering (IPO):
When an unlisted company issues a replacement / first issue of a security, it's called an IPO.
Follow the general public Offering (FPO):
When a corporation that's already listed goes public, it's called a public offering follow (FPO). Therefore, the FPO process begins after the IPO.
Rights Issue
When an issuer issues securities to current / existing shareholders, it's called a right offering. Rights are provided at a selected ratio to the number of securities held as of the record date.
Bonus Issues
When an issuer issues additional securities to existing shareholders for free of charge, it's called a bonus issue.
Private Placement
Private placement may be a thanks to raise funds by selling securities to a comparatively small number of selected investors. Investors involved privately placements are usually large banks, mutual funds, insurance companies and pension funds. Private placements are different from open offerings. Public offering allows securities to be sold to all or any sorts of investors within the open market. There are two sorts of private placement of shares or convertible securities by listed issuers:
Priority Assignment:
When a listed issuer issues shares to a gaggle selected consistent with SEBI guidelines, it's called a preferred allotment. Issuers are required to suits various provisions, including pricing, notice disclosure, lock-in, etc., additionally to the wants specified by the businesses Act.
Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP): When a listed issuer issues shares to a professional institutional purchaser only from a regulatory perspective in accordance with SEBI guidelines, it's called a QIP. Qualified institutional investors are generally institutional investors with the expertise and financial strength to take a position in capital markets. "Qualified Institutional Investors" include:
How to Price Public Issues
There are two ways
In an initial public offering (IPO), when shares are offered at a fixed price, such issuance is called a fixed price issue. This is the second preferred method of going public. In the offer document, the issuer must provide a fixed price reason and appropriate justification. In general, companies only address the fixed price issue if management determines that they can determine fair prices between companies without testing in the market as in book building.
B. Book Building Method
This is the process used in an IPO to efficiently find prices and determine the number of shares to be issued. The price at which the security is offered is initially unknown. It is only known after the end of the book building process. This is a common way to market new issues in some developed countries. In the book building method, the market discovers the price, not the company determines the price.
How the Book Building Method Works
With this method, the price of the stock is not fixed. Instead, the company fixes a price range in which the stock can be sold. The highest price cannot exceed 120% of the lowest price. The bid is then invited to the stock. The IPO must remain open for a minimum of 3 days, during which bids will be placed. Investors can bid within the lowest price or price range. The actual price of a stock is determined by the number of bids received from investors (depending on the price range).
The lead underwriter, known as the bookrunner, determines the level of interest from investors at various price levels and obtains commitment. While the book is being created, you will be able to see the demand at different prices and investors will be able to submit bids accordingly.
Bids will be collected from investors during the IPO period. The bid price may be above the minimum price or it may be the minimum price. The offer price will be fixed based on the bid you receive and will be fixed after the end date of the bid.
Example:
In this way, the company does not fix a specific price for the stock, but instead offers a price range such as Rs. 80 to 100. When bidding on a stock, the investor must determine the price at which to bid on the stock (eg Rs). 80 rupees 90 or Rs. 100. They can bid
For stocks of any price within this range. The final price is fixed based on the supply and demand of the stock.
The lowest price (Rs. 80) is called the lowest price and the highest price (Rs .100) is called the upper price. The price at which the stock is allocated is known as the cutoff price. The entire process begins with the selection of a lead manager, an investment banker whose job is to make the issue publicly available.
Both the lead manager and the issuer determine the price range and issue size. Next, syndicate members are hired to get bids from investors. The problem usually stays open for 5 days. At the end of the offering period, the chief manager and issuer determine the price at which the shares will be sold to investors.
If the issue price is lower than the maximum price, the investor who bids at the maximum price will receive a refund and the investor who bids at the minimum price will eventually pay additional money. For example, if the cutoff in the above example is fixed at Rs. Those who bid at 90, Rs. 80, you have to pay rupees. Those who bid for 10 rupees per share. You will get a refund of 100, Rs. 10 per share. Shares are allocated when each investor pays the actual issue price.
Book Building and Fixed Price Methods:
The main difference between the book-building method and the list-price method is that the issue price is not initially determined in the former. Investors must bid on stocks within a given price range. The issue price is determined based on the supply and demand of shares.
On the other hand, in the fixed price method, the price is decided from the beginning. Investors cannot choose the price. They have to buy the stock at the price decided by the company. The book building method shows the demand every day during the offer period, while the fixed price method shows the demand only after the issuance is finished.
Major financial intermediaries in the Book Building Process
Below are the financial intermediaries who participate in the book building process.
Merchant Bunker has been appointed lead underwriter. If you need multiple merchant bunkers to manage the problem, all other merchant bunkers are called Co-Book Runners. The lead underwriter has the following responsibilities:
- Determining cut-off prices and stock allocations with the help of registrars.
2. Syndicate member
They have the following responsibilities.

Key points in the Book Building Process
Book Building Problem Steps
The key steps in issuing shares using the Book Building Method are:
A. Quantity Evaluation Stage
This stage includes the following activities:
1. Appointment of major financial intermediaries by issuers.
2. Responsibilities of lead manager (role before issuance-Part 1)
B. Pre-issue stage
This includes the following activities by the lead underwriter:
C. Actual Stage
This includes the following activities:
D. Allocation Stage
It includes the following activities:
Book Building: Benefits
1. Realization of high price:
Book building issuance is superior to fixed-price issuance because it helps issuers achieve higher prices for their shares.
2. Quick process:
Allotment of shares to investors shall be made within 15 days after the end of issuance.
3. Rapid availability of funds:
The issuing company can utilize the funds raised immediately after the share allotment.
4. Reduction of issuance cost:
The book building process involves several financial intermediaries, resulting in lower issuance costs.
5. Quick update:
The bidding process is electronic, so bid prices and quantities are available in real time.
6. Lack of uncertainty:
Syndicate members assess the demand for shares of the issuer long before the public issue. Therefore, there is less uncertainty about the price and quantity of shares offered.
7. Opportunity to correct bids:
Investors have multiple opportunities to modify bid prices and quantities in response to market reactions.
8. Quick list:
The shares will be listed on the stock exchange within 7 days of the end of issuance.
9. Reduction of management costs:
Since the number of shareholders is small, management costs are also low.
10. Institutional Preference:
The book-building issue has been well received because institutional investors are the largest buyers of stock.
Book Building: Disadvantages
1. Suitable for mega issues
Suitable for large-scale problems by large companies. Small businesses can't afford the book building problem.
2. Well-developed computerized system
Book building issues require a computerized trading and networking system.
3. Price fixing
Large investors are in a strong financial position and can manipulate prices. Therefore, small investors may find it difficult to buy stock.
4. Injustice allocation
The lead underwriter may favor large investors (investment trusts) in allocating stocks that affect small investors.
5. Centralized ownership
A small number of large investors can buy a large number of stocks and affect the market price of stocks on the stock exchange.
Key takeaways:
The term "Debenture" comes from the Latin word "debere" which means "borrow". Debentures are a written means given by a company that recognizes debt received from the public.
The Companies Act defines Debentures as "Bonds include Debentures, or other securities, whether or not they constitute a claim against a company's assets."

2. Redemption from Capital
When a bond is redeemed from capital, no divisible profit is secured for the redemption of the bond. Redemption from capital reduces the liquid resources available to the company. In accordance with the guidelines issued by SEBI, a company must create a bond redemption reserve (DRR) equivalent to 50% of the bond issuance before it can begin redemption. However, it is not necessary to create a DRR in the following cases.
3. Redemption from Profit
If sufficient profit is transferred from the P & L budget A / c to the bond redemption reserve A / c at the time of bond redemption, such redemption is said to be out of profit. It reduces the profit available for dividends. The next entry is passed for the transfer of profits
P & L Appropriation A/c Dr
To Debenture Redemption Reserve A/c
In accordance with SEBI guidelines, DRR (50% of issued corporate bonds) is required for corporate bonds with a maturity of more than 18 months. When all bonds have been redeemed, DRR A / c will be transferred to the general reserve and will be terminated. The entries are as follows
Debenture Redemption Reserve A / c Dr

4. Redemption by Sinking Fund
With this redemption method, a part of the profit (fixed amount) is secured every year, and a bond reduction fund (corporate bond redemption fund) is created. A sinking fund that I invested in external securities. Interest received on such investments will be reinvested as usual, with an amount set separately from the profit. It lasts until the bond redemption date. The investment is sold and the cash thus realized is used to repay the corporate bonds. With this method, a sinking fund A / c (bond redemption fund A / c) and a sinking fund investment A / c (bond redemption fund investment A / c) are opened. After redemption, the balance of the sinking fund A / c will be transferred to the general reserve. This method requires the following entries:
At the end of first year:
P & L Appropriation A/c Dr

Problem 19
On January 1, 2007, Balu Ltd issued a 6% corporate bond of Rs 1000. Each bond will be repaid at a premium of 10% at the end of four years. It was decided to create a sinking fund for that purpose. The investment is expected to result in a net return of 5%. According to the table of the Sinking Fund, the annual investment amount of Re.0.232012 will be Re.1 of 5% in 4 years. The investment was made only in multiples of 100. On December 31, 2010, the bank balance was Rs.40000 and the investment was Rs.82000. The bond has paid off. Enter the journal to display the ledger account excluding interest on corporate bonds.

The bond holders of a company may be given the option to convert the bonds into shares or new bonds within a set period of time. New shares or bonds can be issued at par or at a premium or discount. The following entry is created for this purpose:
Old Debentures A/c Dr
Discount on issue of shares/debentures A/c Dr (if issue at discount)
To New Share Capital/ Debenture A/c
To Premium on issue of shares/ debentures A/c (if issue at premium)

Own Debentures
Directors may purchase bonds whenever they determine that the market price is favourable to the company. These purchased bonds can be cancelled by the company or stored as an investment called own bonds that can be reissued later when needed.
Purchases of corporate bonds are accounted for in the same way as regular investments. The entry looks like this:
Own Debentures A / c Dr (with purchase price)
To Bank A / c
Your corporate bond A / c will appear on the asset side of B / S (under “Investment”) until cancelled or reissued. If the company wants to cancel its investment in its corporate bonds, it will be passed the following entry:
Debentures A/c Dr (with face value)
Loss on redemption of debentures A/c Dr (for loss)
To own Debentures A/c (with purchase price
To Profit on Redemption of Debentures A/c (for profit)
For transfer of profit on redemption:
Profit on Redemption of Debentures A/c Dr To Capital Reserve
