  2. Disclosure Requirement

Schedules Forming Part of Financial Statements/Annual Report

A. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT FOR “EQUITY AND LIABILITIES” ITEMS

1. SHAREHOLDERS’ FUNDS

a. SHARE CAPITAL

Sch. III Disclosure Requirement Points to be considered
General Sch III deals only with presentation and disclosure requirements
  Accounting classification into Debt and Equity components is governed by the applicable Accounting Standard
  Preference Shares will have to be classified as "Share Capital" and also includes such Preference Shares of which redemption is overdue
For each Class of Share Capital (different classes of Preference Shares to be treated separately):
(i) Authorized Capital It is the maximum number and face/par value, of each class of shares that a corporate entity may issue in accordance with its instrument of incorporation.
(ii) Number of Shares Issued, Subscribed and Fully Paid, and Subscribed but not Fully Paid

Subscribed Share Capital: "that portion of the Issued Share Capital which has actually been subscribed by the public and subsequently allotted to the shareholders by the entity. This also includes any Bonus shares issued to the Shareholders."

 

Paid-up Share Capital: "that part of the Subscribed Share Capital for which consideration is cash or otherwise has been received. This also includes Bonus Shares allotted and shares issued otherwise than for cash against purchase consideration, by the corporate entity."

  If Shares are not fully called, then disclose the called up value per share.
(iii) Face/Par Value per Share Face/Par Value, as per Capital Clause in Memorandum of Association should be disclosed.
(iv) Reconciliation of No. of Shares outstanding at the beginning and at the end For the Amount of Share Capital;
  For comparative previous period;
  Separate statements for both Equity and Preference Shares, which should again be sub-classified and represented for each class of Share.
(v) Rights, preferences and restrictions attaching to shares including restrictions on the distribution of dividends and the repayment of capital  For Equity Share Capital, such rights/preferences/restrictions may be with voting rights, or with differential voting rights as to dividend, voting or otherwise as per Companies (Issue of Share Capital with Differential Voting Rights) Rules, 2001.
  For Preference Shares, the rights include dividend and/or capital rights. Further, Preference Shares can be cumulative, non-cumulative, redeemable, convertible, non-convertible,etc.
  All such Rights, Preferences and Restrictions attached to each class of Shares, terms of redemption, etc. should be disclosed separately.
(vi) Shares in respect of each class in the company held by its subsidiaries or associates or by the ultimate holding company in aggregate Disclose number of shares held by the entire chain of Subsidiaries and Associates starting from the Holding Company and right up to the Ultimate Holding Company.
  All such disclosures should be made separately representing each class of Shares, (for both Equity and Preference Shares).
(g) List of shareholders holding more than 5% shares as on the Balance Sheet Date Data for computing the 5% limit should be taken as the Balance Sheet date. So, if during the year, any Shareholder held more than 5% Equity Shares but does not hold as much at the Balance Sheet date, disclosure is not required.
  Companies should disclose the Shareholding for each class of Shares, both within Equity and Preference Shares. So, such % should be computed separately for each class of Shares.
  This information should also be given for comparative previous periods.
(h) Shares reserved for issue under options and contracts/ commitments for the sale of shares/disinvestment, including the terms and amounts Shares under options generally arise under Promoters or Collaboration Agreements, Loan Agreements or Debenture Deeds (including Convertible Debentures), agreement to convert Preference Shares into Equity Shares, ESOPs or Contracts for supply of Capital Goods, etc.
  Disclosure is required for the number of shares, amounts and other terms for shares so reserved, such options as in respect of unissued portion of share capital.

Aggregate number & class of shares allotted as fully paid and up pursuant to contracts(s) without payment being received in cash The aggregate number of shares allotted or bought back
Aggregate no. and class of shares allotted as fully Paid up by way of bonus shares If the company is in operation for a period of less than 5 years, then disclosure should cover all such earlier financial years. Not to disclose the following allotments:
Aggregate number & class of shares bought back The following allotments are considered as Shares allotted for payment being received in cash, and hence should not be disclosed under this Clause – (a) If the subscription amount is adjusted against a bonafide debt payable in money at once by the Company, (b) Conversion of Loan into Shares in the event of default in repayment
(j) Terms of any Securities Convertible into equity/ preference shares issued along with the earliest date of conversion in descending order starting from the farthest such date In case of Compulsorily Convertible Securities, where conversion is done in fixed tranches, all the dates of conversions are considered.
  In case of Convertible Debentures/Bonds, etc. for the purpose of simplification, reference may be made to their terms to ascertain the earliest date of conversion. These dates are required to be included in the Balance Sheet, rather than the shares.
(k) Calls Unpaid (showing aggregate value of calls unpaid by directors and officers) Unpaid amount towards shares subscribed by the subscribers of Memorandum of Association should be considered as ‘Subscribed and paid-Up Capital’ in the Balance Sheet and the debts due from the subscribers should be appropriately disclosed as an asset in the Balance Sheet.
(l) Forfeited shares (amount originally paid up) -----------------
(m) A company shall disclose Shareholding of Promoters The information shall be disclosed in the format specified in Schedule III.

Issued Capital: Equity Share 30,000 Shares @ ₹100 each, fully paid up = ₹30,00,000; 19,800 Equity Shares of

₹10 per share.

Preference Share Capital: 15% Redeemable Preference Shares, 10,000 Shares @ ₹100 each = ₹10,00,000. 18%, Convertible Preference Shares, 20,000 shares @ ₹100 each = ₹20,00,000

How will this be shown in the Workings/Schedules, assuming first year of operation?

(1) (b) Reserve & Surplus

Sch. III Disclosure Requirement Points

(c) Securities Premium Sch III uses the term "Securities Premium Reserve" but the Act uses the term "Securities Premium Reserve". Hence, the term used in the Act should be used.
(d) Debenture Redemption Reserve Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) is required to be created u/s 71, and maintained until such Debentures are redeemed. On redemption of the Debentures, the amounts no longer necessary to be retained in this Reserve should be transferred to the General Reserve.
(e) Revaluation Reserve Revaluation Reserve is a Reserve created on the revaluation of Assets or Net Assets of an Enterprise represented by the surplus of the estimated Replacement Cost or estimated market values over the Book Values thereof.

"Koncept perfectly justifies what it sounds, i.e, your concepts are meant to be cleared if you are a Konceptian. My experience with Koncept was amazing. The most striking experience that I went through was the the way Yash sir and Ruchika ma'am taught us in the lectures, making it very interesting and lucid. Another great feature of Koncept is that you get mentor calls which I think drives you to stay motivated and be disciplined. And of course it goes without saying that Yash sir has always been like a friend to me, giving me genuine guidance whenever I was in need. So once again I want to thank Koncept Education for all their efforts."
