FAQs on Redemption of Debentures ( Part - 2) - Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

1. What is the meaning of redemption of debentures?
Ans. Redemption of debentures refers to the process by which a company repays the amount borrowed through debentures to the debenture holders at the end of the debenture's term. It involves returning the principal amount along with any accrued interest to the debenture holders.
2. How are debentures redeemed?
Ans. Debentures can be redeemed in two ways: (1) by creating a Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) and using the funds from this reserve to repay the debenture holders, or (2) by making a lump sum payment to the debenture holders from the company's general reserves or profits.
3. What is a Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR)?
Ans. A Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) is a reserve created by a company to set aside funds for redeeming its debentures. As per the Companies Act, 2013, companies issuing debentures are required to create a DRR and transfer a certain percentage of their profits every year until the debentures are fully redeemed.
4. Can a company redeem its debentures before the maturity date?
Ans. Yes, a company can redeem its debentures before the maturity date if it has a provision for early redemption in the debenture agreement. This provision allows the company to repay the debenture holders before the scheduled maturity date, either partially or in full.
5. What are the consequences of non-redemption of debentures?
Ans. If a company fails to redeem its debentures on the maturity date, it is considered a default. The consequences of non-redemption may include legal action by the debenture holders, reputation damage to the company, a decrease in investor confidence, and difficulties in raising funds in the future. Additionally, the company may be required to pay penalties or interest on the defaulted amount.
