Explanation:
The Indian Financial System comprises both the organized sector (RBI, banks, stock exchanges) and the unorganized sector (moneylenders, indigenous bankers).
A company issues 10,000, 9% preference shares of ₹100 each, redeemable at a premium of 10%. The shares are issued at par. What is the amount to be transferred to the Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR)?
Explanation:
When preference shares are issued at par and redeemed at a premium, the CRR must be created out of free reserves equal to the nominal value of the shares redeemed. Therefore, CRR = 10,000 * ₹100 = ₹10,00,000. The premium on redemption is provided out of securities premium or P&L.
