Understanding Pinnacle Instruments Ltd. Share Capital
Pinnacle Instruments Ltd. registered a capital of ₹20,00,000 divided into Equity Shares of ₹100 each. To determine the total number of shares registered, we need to divide the total capital by the nominal value of each share.
Calculation of Total Shares
- Total Capital: ₹20,00,000
- Nominal Value per Share: ₹100
- Total Number of Shares:
- Total Capital / Nominal Value per Share
- = ₹20,00,000 / ₹100
- = 20,000 shares
Details of Share Issuance
- On 1st June 2015, the company issued 5,000 Equity Shares as fully paid to Mila Herbals as consideration for plant and machinery.
- The remaining shares were issued to the public at par, which means the company offered these shares at their nominal value of ₹100.
Public Shares Issued
- After issuing 5,000 shares to Mila Herbals, the remaining shares available for public issuance would be:
- Total Shares - Shares Issued to Mila Herbals
- = 20,000 - 5,000
- = 15,000 shares
Conclusion
Thus, the total number of shares Pinnacle Instruments Ltd. registered itself with is 20,000 shares. The answer to the question is option C.

Long-term borrowing consists of a long application process where repayments are made for several years in order to pay off the loan. The type of loan that you borrow affects the business considering the amount of interest that you pay over the specified period of time.
Ans: ₹22,50,000
Working (as at 31-03-2017):
  • 12% Bank Loan (SBI): ₹15,00,000 → treated as long-term (no current instalment specified).
  • 10% Debentures ₹10,00,000, redeemable in 4 equal yearly instalments starting 30-09-2017 → current portion = ₹10,00,000 ÷ 4 = ₹2,50,000 (within 12 months), non-current portion = ₹7,50,000.
Total Long-term Borrowings = ₹15,00,000 + ₹7,50,000 = ₹22,50,000.
(Note: Unpaid interest on the bank loan and debentures is shown under current liabilities, not added to borrowings.)
