Note:
1. As prescribed by Section 71(4) of the Companies Act, 2013, companies are required to create DRR at 25% of the total value of debentures. However, it purely depends upon a company and its discretion to transfer more amount to DRR than the prescribed amount of 25% in the case of companies for whom it is mandatory to create DRR out of profits. In this case, as explicitly specified about company's discretion, DRR has been created for a total of Rs 20,00,000 which is 50% of the total value of redeemable debentures.
2. As per circular no. 04/2015 issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs (dated 11.02.2013), every company required to create/maintain DRR shall on or before the 30th day of April of each year, deposit or invest, as the case may be, a sum which shall not be less than fifteen percent of the amount of its debentures maturing during the year ending on the 31st day of March next following year. Accordingly, entries for DRR and Investment have been passed in the previous accounting year.
3. As explicilty stated in the question, entries for interest on debentures has not been passed.
