What to Focus On

  • A company has a separate legal identity.
  • A share is a unit of share capital.
  • Shares are movable property and transferable according to the Articles.

  • Authorised capital is the maximum capital a company can raise.
  • Issued capital is the part offered to the public or vendors.
  • Subscribed capital is the part actually applied for and allotted.

  • Par means face value.
  • Premium means issue price is above face value.
  • Discount means issue price is below face value.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Shares issued at discount are allowed for the general public if the company wants to attract more investors.

Whenever shares are issued at premium, Securities Premium Reserve Account is automatically created only after cash is actually received later.

Calls-in-Advance and Calls-in-Arrears are the same kind of unpaid amount.
