Working Notes:
Calculation of Amount transferred to DRR
As prescribed by Section 714 of the Companies Act, 2013, companies are required to create DRR at 25% of the total value of debentures. Here, debentures worth Rs 21,00,000 are to be redeemed, so, the amount of DRR will be:
| Amount of DRRRs | 21, 00, 000 × | 25 |
| 100 | ||
| = 5,25,000 |
| Amount Instalments for the three years = | 5, 25, 000 |
| 3 | |
| = 1,75,000 |
