Q:

Explain the guidelines of SEBI for creating DRR.

A:

SEBI Guidelines for redemption of debentures:

The creation of Debenture Redemption Reserve (i.e., DRR) is obligatory only for non-convertible debentures and non-convertible portion of partly convertible debentures.
A company shall create DRR equivalent to at least 25% of the amount of debentures issued before starting the redemption of debentures.

Hence, a Company cannot redeem its debentures purely out of capital. Atleast 25% of debentures issued must be redeemed out of profits by creating a ‘Debenture Redemption Reserve’ and the balance of debentures issued may be redeemed out of profits and out of capital.

Q:

Differentiate between redemption of debentures out of capital and out of profits.

A:

1. Redemption of debentures out of capital: When before or at the time of redemption profits are neither required by law nor otherwise transferred to DRR, such redemption is said to be out of capital. Section 73 of the Companies Act, 2013 restricts redemption of debentures out of capital by requiring every company (except All India Financial Institutions and Banking Companies) to create Debenture Redemption Reserve out of profits available for dividends.

2. Redemption of Debentures out of Profits: It implies adequate amount of profits are transferred to Debenture Redemption Reserve out of profit available for dividend. According to section 71(4) of the Companies Act 2013, company requires creating a debenture redemption reserve account out of profits of the company available for payment of dividend and the balance in debenture redemption reserve account shall be utilised for the purpose of redemption of debentures only. The company is required to transfer at least 25% of the value of debentures to DRR before the redemption of debentures.

Q:

Describe the meaning of ‘Debentures issued as a collateral securities’. What accounting treatment is given to the issue of debentures in the books of accounts?

A:

Debentures issued as a collateral security can be dealt in two ways in the books of accounts of the company.

First method:

No entry is made in the books of accounts since no liability is created by such issue. However, on the liability side of the Balance Sheet, below the items of the loan a note to the effect that it has been secured by issue of debentures as a collateral security is appended. For example, 300, 12% debentures of ₹100 each as a collateral security to a bank which has advanced a loan of ₹25,000 to the company for a period of 5 years. This fact may be shown in the Balance Sheet as under:

Q:

Distinguish between a debenture and a share. Why debenture is known as loan capital. Explain.

A:

Basis	Debentures	Shares
Ownership	A debenture is acknowledgement of debt and is a part of borrowed capital.	A share is a part of owned capital and represents ownership capital.
Return	The return is called interest and is charge on profits of the company.	The return is called dividend and is appropriation of profits.
Repayment	These are issued for a specified period and repayable on the expiry of that period.	The amount is not returned during the life of company.
Voting rights	Debentureholders normally do not have any voting rights.	Shareholders enjoy voting rights.
Issue at discount	These are no restrictions on issue of debentures at discount.	Shares cannot be issued at discount except Sweat Equity Shares.
Risk	Debentureholders are safe as they are normally secured.	They are at a greater risk. Even they can lose the amount invested in shares.

Debenture represents debt capital as it is an acknowledgement of debt by the company, which carries specified rate of interest, normally are secured against the assets of the company and are repayable as per the terms of the issue.
