Subscription is called as Issued Capital.
Subscribed Capital: The issued Capital may not be fully subscribed by the public
Subscribed Capital is that part of issued Capital which has been taken off by the public
i.e. the capital for which applications are received from the public.
Called – up Capital: The Company may not need to receive the entire amount of capital of
capital at once. It may call up only part of the subscribed capital as and when needed in
installments. Called – up Capital is the part of „subscribed capital which the company has
actually called upon the shareholders to pay. Called – up Capital includes the amount paid
by the shareholder from time to time on application, on allotment, on various calls such as
First Call, Second Call, Final Call etc. The remaining part of subscribe capital not yet
called up is known as Uncalled Capital. The Uncalled Capital may be converted, by
passing a special resolution, into Reserve Capital, Reserve Capital can be called up only
in case of winding up of the company, to meet the liabilities arising then.

Paid-up Capital: The Called-up Capital may not be fully paid. Some Shareholders may
pay only part of the amount required to be paid or may not pay at all. Paid-up Capital is
the part of called-up capital which is actually paid by the shareholders. The remaining part
indicates the default in payment of calls by some shareholders, known as Calls in Arrears.
Thus, Paid-up Capital is Called-up Capital – Calls in Arrears.
SHARE:
DEFINITION
A “share” has been defined by the Indian Companies Act, under sec.2(46) as “A share is
the share in the Capital of the Company”.
TYPES OF SHARES:
A Company can issue two types of shares – Equity and Preference.
Equity Shares: Equity shares means that part of the share capital which is not a Preference
share capital. It means all such shares which are not Preference shares. Equity shares are
also called as Ordinary Shares.
Preference Shares: Preference shares are those shares which fulfill both the following two
conditions:
They carry preferential share right in respect of dividend at a fixed rate,
They also carry preferential right in regard to payment of capital on winding up of the
company.
Preference shares can be further classified as follows:
Cumulative and Non – Cumulative : If in any year the profits are insufficient to pay the
preference dividend then in case of cumulative preference shares this dividend can be paid
in the subsequent year before any other dividend is paid. In other words the right to
receive the dividend goes on accumulating till it is paid. In case of Non – cumulative
preference shares the dividend can be paid only in that year. If there are insufficient
profits then such preference shareholders do not get any dividend for that year.
PROCEDURE
Issue of Prospectus: Whenever shares are to be issued to the public the company must
issue a prospectus. Prospectus means an open invitation to the public to take up the shares
of the company thus a private company need not issue prospectus. Even a Public
Company issuing it‟s shares privately need not issue a prospectus. However, it is required
to file a “Statement in lieu of Prospectus” with the register of companies. The Prospectus
contains relevant information like names of Directors, terms of issue, etc. It also states the
opening date of subscription list, amount payable on application, on allotment & the
earliest closing date of the subscription list.
Over Subscription: If the no. of shares applied for is more than the no. of shares offered to
the public then that is called as over Subscription.
Under Subscription: If the no. of shares applied for is less then the no. of shares offered to
the public then it is called as Under Subscription.
Allotment of Shares: After the last date of the receipt of applications is over, the
Directors, Procide with the allotment work. However, a company cannot allot the shares
unless the minimum subscription amount mentioned in the prospectus is collected within
a stipulated period.
The Directors pass resolution in the board meeting for allotment of shares indicating
clearly the class & no. of shares allotted with the distinctive numbers. Then Letters of
Allotment are sent to the concerned applicants. Letters of Regret are sent to those who are
not allotted any shares & application money is refunded to them.
Partial Allotment: In partial allotment the company rejects some application totally,
refunds their application money & allots the shares to the remaining applicants.
4
Pro-rata Allotment: When a company makes a pro-rata allotment, it allots shares to all
applicants but allots lesser shares then applied for E.g. If a person has applied for three
hundred shares he may get two hundred shares.
Calls on Shares: The remaining amount of shares may be collected in installments as laid
down in the prospectus. Such installments are called calls on Shares. They may be termed
as “Allotment amount, First Call, Second Call, etc.”
Calls–in–Arrears: some shareholders may not pay the money due from them. The
outstanding amounts are transferred to an account called up as “Calls-in-Arrears” account.
The Balance of calls-in-arrears account is deducted from the Called-up capital in the
Balance Sheet.
When the shares are issued at a price higher than the nominal value of the shares then it is
called as shares issued at a premium. The amount of premium is decided by the board of
Directors as per the guide lines issued by SEBI. Such share premium collected by the
company is credited to a separate A/c called as “Securities Premium A/c”. Although
Securities Premium is a profit to the company, it is not a revenue profit, it is treated as
capital profit, which can be utilized only for the following purposes as per sec. 78 of the
Companies Act –
Issue of fully paid bonus shares to the existing shareholders.
Writing off the preliminary expenses of the company.
5
Writing off the expenses of issue or the commission paid or discount allowed on any issue
of shares / debentures.
Providing the premium payable on redemption of preference shares or debentures. The
company can utilize the security Premium for any other purpose only on obtaining the
sanction of the court.
The Companies Act, permits issue of shares at a discount subject to the following
conditions. (sec. 79) –
The issue must be of a class of shares already issued.
Not less than 1 year has at the date of issue elapsed since the date on which the company
became entitled to commence business.
The issue at a discount is authorized by a resolution passed by the company in the general
meeting & sanctioned by the company law board.
The maximum rate of discount must not exceed 10% or such rate as the company law
board may permit.
The shares to be issued at a discount must be issued within two months of the sanction by
the company law board or within such extended time as the company law board may
allow.

name is removed from the register of members. The directors must observe strictly all the
legal formalities required by the Articles of Association before forfeiting the shares.

he Forfeited shares were issued at a premium and the premium money is already received
on those Forfeited shares, security premium A/c will not be cancelled or debited.
If the Forfeited shares are issued at a discount, the proportion amount of discount allowed
on such shares should be cancelled if the discount of shares has already been debited.
