Sunshine Ltd. issued 20,000 shares of ₹100 each, payable ₹25 on application, ₹25 on allotment, and the balance in two calls of ₹25 each. The company did not make the final call of ₹25 per share. All money was duly received except the first call amount on 400 shares held by Mr. Modi. The Board forfeited these shares and subsequently reissued them at ₹75 per share paid-up, for a sum of ₹28,000. Journalise the transactions and prepare the Share Capital Account.
Called-up per share (final call not made) = Application ₹25 + Allotment ₹25 + First Call ₹25 = ₹75.
