Answer:
According to Section 117C of Companies Act, where a company issues debenture after the commencement of this Act, it shall create a debenture redemption reserve for the redemption of such debentures, to which adequate amounts shall be credited, out of its profits every year until such debentures are redeemed.

Ministry of Corporate Affairs has made a clarification on adequacy of Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) vide Circular No. 04/2013, dated 11 February, 2013.

As per this clarification, adequacy of Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) for debentures issued by companies including manufacturing and infrastructure companies is 25% of the value of debentures issued through public issue. Therefore, minimum amount of DRR will be ₹ 25 crores i.e. 25% of 100 crores in the case of Noida Toll Bridge Corporation Ltd.

Further, every company required to create/maintain DRR shall 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 31 st day of March next following in any one or more of the following methods, namely:

Working Notes:
(1) For every ₹ 100 debenture, amount payable on redemption including premium is ₹ 102
Less: Face value of 8 shares of ₹ 10 each to be issued for redemption of each debenture (8 × ₹ 10) – ₹ 80
Premium on issue of 8 shares – ₹ 22
Therefore, premium on issue of each share ₹(\(\frac{22}{8}\)) – ₹ 2.75

(2) Shares to be issued for conversion of 75% Debentures into × shares @ 8 shares for every ₹ 100 Debenture i.e. ₹ 24,00,000
\(\frac{75}{100}\) × \(\frac{8}{100}\) = 1,44,000 shares

(3) Cash payment for remaining 25% debenture holders who exercised the option of cash i.e., ₹ 24,00,000 \(\frac{25}{100}\) × \(\frac{102}{100}\)
= ₹ 6,12,000

(4) Face value of investment to be sold to realize ₹ 6,12,000 will be ₹ 6,80,000 [ i.e. ₹ \(\frac{20,00,000}{18,00,000}\) × ₹ 6,12,000)
Loss on sale of investment = 6,80,000 – 6,12,000 = 68,000

(5) Debenture Redemption Reserve transferred to General Reserve:
20,00,000 – 48,000 – 68,000 = ₹ 18,84,000
