Features of Debentures
• It is a document known as Debenture Certificate.
• It is an acknowledgement of debt by the company.
• It is an agreement between the company and its debenture
holders for repayment of the principal amount on a specified
date along with interest at a pre-determined rate charged on
the principal amount until the principal is repaid.
• It is an evidence of a debt to the holder usually arising out of
a loan and mostly secured by a charge.

• It is a common practice to prefix ‘Debentures’
with the rate of interest like if the rate of interest
is 10%, the title of the debentures will be ‘10%
Debentures’.
• It is treated as an external equity or long term
borrowings by the company.
• It is usually secured by way of charge on the
assets of the company.
• The interest charged on debentures is a charge
against profit.
BCCC 0011 Company Accounts And Practices 7

Debenture holders:
• They are the persons to whom debentures are issued by a
company.
• These persons are lenders to the company as they provide
funds in exchange of debentures issued to them.

Types of Debentures
• i. Security point of view:
• a. Secured: Such debentures are secured by either a fixed
charge or a floating charge on the assets of the company. Such
charge is to be registered with the Registrar of the Companies.
• b. Unsecured: Such debentures are not secured by any
charge on assets of the company.

ii. Redemption point of view
• a. Redeemable: Such debentures are repayable by the
company at the end of a specified period or by instalments
during the existence of the company.
• b. Irredeemable: Such debentures are not repayable
during the lifetime of the company and are repayable only
when the company is liquidated.

iii. Records/ Negotiability
point of view
• a. Registered: Such debentures are registered in the
company’s records in the holder’s name. All amounts towards
principal and interest are to be paid to the registered
debentureholder only. Any transfer of such debentures
requires execution of transfer deed.
• b. Bearer: Such debentures are not registered in the records
of the company in the name of the holder. They are easily
transferable by mere delivery. Interest is paid to the person
who produces coupons attached to the debenture.

iv. Priority point of view:
• a. First Debentures: Such debentures are to be repaid
before the other debentures.
• b. Second Debentures: Such debentures are to be repaid
after the first debentures are redeemed

v. Coupon rate point of view:
• a. Specific Coupon Rate: Such debentures are issued with
a specified rate of interest, called the coupon rate. This rate
may be either fixed or floating. If it’s a floating rate, it is
usually linked with the bank rate . ex 10% Debentures
• b. Zero Coupon Rate (Bonds): Such debentures do not
carry a specific rate of interest. They are issued at a
substantial discount. Such difference between the face value
and issue price is the total amount of interest related to the
duration of debentures.

Convertibility point of view:
• a. Convertible: Such debentures are convertible into
shares. Where only a part of the debentures amount is
convertible into Equity Shares, they are known as Partly
Convertible Debentures. However, when full amount of
debentures is convertible into Equity Shares, they are known
as Fully Convertible Debentures.
• b. Non-Convertible: Such debentures are not convertible
into shares.

Disclosure of Debentures in
the Balance Sheet
• Since these are the borrowings of a company, they are considered
as liability and therefore, shown in the Equity and Liabilities part of
the Balance Sheet.
• They can be disclosed either as Non-Current or Current Liability
depending upon the tenure of such debentures. An important point
to remember is that unless the question requires otherwise,
debentures are shown as Long-term Borrowings under Non-
current Liabilities.
• Non-Current Liability: This is done when Debentures are due for
redemption after 12 months from the reporting date i.e., the date
of Balance Sheet or after the period of Operating Cycle. The date of
issue of debentures determines whether these debentures are
Long-term borrowings or Short-term Borrowings.

Concept of Minimum Subscription
with respect to Debentures
• a company cannot allot securities unless minimum
subscription stated in the prospectus is received.
• Such minimum subscription is therefore, to be decided by the
company. As per SEBI, 75% of the issue should be subscribed
before a company allots debentures.

INTEREST ON DEBENTURES
Interest on Debentures is calculated at a fixed rate on its face
value and is usually payable half yearly & is paid even company
is suffering from loss because it is charge on profit.
• Income Tax is deducted from interest before payment to
debenture holders. It is called T.D.S. (Tax deducted at source)

Interest on Debentures
i. It is a charge against profit of the company and is payable
whether the company earns profit or incurs loss.
ii. It is calculated at a fixed rate of interest on the nominal (face)
value.
iii. It is not payable on debentures issued as collateral security.
iv. It is prefixed on debentures i.e., if the rate is 15% p.a. then
debentures will be titled ‘15% Debentures.’
v. Balance in the Debentures’ Interest Account is transferred to
Statement of Profit and Loss (Finance Cost) at the end of the
year.
vi. Interest payment may be subject to TDS

Issue of Debentures as a
Collateral Security
• Collateral security means security provided to lender in addition to
the principal security.
• It is a subsidiary or secondary security.
• Whenever a company takes loan from bank or from any financial
institution it may issue its debentures as secondary security which
is in addition to the principal security. Such an issue of debentures
is known as ‘issue of debentures as collateral security’.
• The lender will have a right over such debentures only when
company fails to pay the loan amount and the principal security is
exhausted. In case the need to exercise the right does not arise
debentures will be returned back to the company.
• No interest is paid on the debentures issued as collateral security
because company pays interest on loan.

Accounting methods
• In the accounting books of the company issue of debentures
as collateral security can be credited in two ways :
• First method : No Journal entry to be made in the books of
accounts of the company for debentures issued as collateral
security. A note of this fact is given in this case.
• Second method : Entry to be made in the books of accounts
of the company.

What is Redemption of
Debentures?
Redemption of debentures refers to payment of the
amount of debentures by the enterprise.
• Debentures can be redeemed either at par or at a premium.
• The terms and conditions of redemption are usually given in
the prospectus inviting applications for the issue of
debentures.

Methods of Redemption of
Debentures:
Payment in lump sum
Payment in instalments
Purchase in the open market
By conversion into shares or new debentures

Redemption of Debentures
by Lump-sum Payment
• When the total amount of debentures is paid
to the debenture holders in lump-sum on
maturity or even before maturity, it is known
as Redemption of debentures in lump-sum.
• In this case, the time of repayment is known in
advance and the company can plan its
financial resources accordingly
BCCC 0011 Company Accounts And
Practices

each year are selected by lottery
Practices

lakhs in debentures on the 1st of April of 2020 with a maturity date
of March 2025. Here, as per the companies act, ABC Pvt Ltd. needs
to assemble 25% of Rs. 20 lakhs as debenture redemption reserve
before the maturity date of the debenture.
• Shown in the Equity and Liability part of the Balance Sheet under
the head ‘Shareholders’ fund and sub-head ‘Reserves and Surplus’.

• Investment in the Specified Securities:
• at least 15% of the nominal value of the debentures to be
redeemed during the year should be invested on or before
30th April of the year in which the redemption is to be made.
• Exemption to Create DRR
• All India Financial Institutions (AIFIs) regulated by RBI
• Banking Companies
• When all the debentures are redeemed, DRR Account is

each at a premium of 10 % on 31st March 2018. Debenture
holders were given equity shares of Rs 10 each at premium of Rs
10 per share. Journal entries in the books of Anil Ltd will be:
Amount of Debenture due for payment = Total number of
Debentures X Value of per Debenture
= 5,000 X 10
= 50,000
Amount of premium on redemption of per Debenture = 10 X
10/100 = 1
Total amount of premium payable = No of Debenture to be
redeemed X Amount of premium on redemption of per
Debenture
= 5,000 X 1
= 5,000

Total amount due to Debenture holders = 50,000 + 5,000
= 55,000
Issue price of share = 10 + 10
Issue price of share = 20
= (50,000+5,000)/20
= 2,750
Entry for amount due to Debentureholders on conversion of 5,000 15 %
