1. Calculate total number of shares applied by the shareholder whose shares are being forfeited, applying the following formula:

2. Calculate total application money received on shares applied by defaulting shareholder as under:
No. of shares applied by shareholder × Application money per share.
2. Calculate application money due on shares allotted to defaulting shareholder as under:
No. of shares allotted to shareholder × Application money per share.

What is meant by Forfeiture of Shares?

Forfeiture of a share is a legal process in which a firm, with the approval from its board of directors or partners, cancels the shares of an individual, which is usually done in case of any breach of terms in the purchase agreement, such as failure in payment of call money, selling of shares during the restricted duration, etc. In simple words, forfeiture is an official step taken to restrict a shareholder’s right in the firm.

What do you mean by Preferential Allotment?

Preferential Allotment depicts the allotment of a firm’s shares on a preferential basis to few selected investors. In this case, the share is distributed at a predefined price to a set of investors who desire to acquire a strategic stake in the company.

Why do companies prefer preferential allotment?

Generally, when the companies desire to scale up their business and accumulate a large share capital, they prefer preferential allotment. In these cases, the firms have three major options to allot shares, which are –
● Issue fresh shares to the existing shareholders.
● Make an open offer to investors.
● Bulk allotment of firm’s share to different companies or a group of individuals.

Can a company offer a share of discount? What terms and conditions must be compiled before issuing such shares?

A company can only issue shares of discount if a resolution about the same is passed by all the company partners in a general meeting and is approved by the Central Government. The resolution must clearly highlight the maximum rate of discount to be availed on the shares to be issued. However, as per the pre-defined norms of the Central Government, the discount rate must not exceed 10%.

Write the conditions for the issue of shares at a discount?

Here are the conditions when the shares can be issued at a discount –
● If a company desires to issue the share at a price lower than the face value, it must mandatorily get approval from the relevant authority.
● The discount on share comes with a limitation, i.e., the discount rate cannot exceed 10%.
● The company must issue the shares within 60 days after receiving permission from the authority.
