What to Focus On

  • Redemption means repayment of debenture liability.
  • Terms of issue and redemption are fixed in the debenture certificate.
  • Three main methods are lump sum, annual instalments by draw of lots, and purchase in the open market.
  • Fresh issue can be used to finance redemption.
  • Redemption out of capital affects working capital adversely.
  • Redemption out of profits involves transfer of profits to a separate reserve.
  • DRR is created out of profits available for dividend.
  • Minimum DRR = 25% of debentures issued.
  • For full redemption out of profits, DRR is 100% of debentures issued.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
