What is Debenture?

As per Section 2 (30) of Companies Act, 2013

 

“Debenture” includes debentures, stock, bonds, or any other instrument of a company evidencing a debt, whether constituting a charge on the assets of the company or not. In other terms,

A Debenture is a type of debt instrument that is not secured by physical assets or collateral. Debentures are backed only by the general creditworthiness and reputation of the issuer.

 

Debentures can be classified into different categories on the basis of:

  • Convertibility of the instrument
  • Security of the instrument
  • Redemption Ability
  • Registration of Instrument

Classification on the basis of “CONVERTIBILITY”

Non-Convertible Debentures (NCD): These instruments retain the debt character and cannot be converted into Equity shares. Therefore, they will be redeemed or roll over for a further period.

Partly-Convertible Debentures (PCD): A part of these instruments are converted into Equity shares in the future at the notice of the issuer. The ratio for the conversion is decided by the issuer at the time of subscription.

Fully-Convertible Debentures (FCD): These instruments are converted into Equity shares in the future at the notice of the issuer. The investor enjoys the same rights as an ordinary shareholder after conversion.

Optionally Convertible Debentures (OCD): Investor has the option either to convert these debentures into equity shares.

Classification on the basis of “SECURITY”

Secured Debentures are debentures secured by a charge on the fixed assets of the issuer company. When the issuer company fails on payment of either the principal or interest amount, the assets of the company can be sold to repay the liability to the investors.

2. Unsecured Debentures are debentures that are not supported by collateral security. No specific assets will be set aside against unsecured debentures. It is basically a loan without any protection. They are backed only by the general creditworthiness of the issuer.

 

Classification on the basis of “REDEMPTION ABILITY”

Redeemable Debentures are those which can be redeemed on a fixed date or by giving notice to the debenture holders at the option of the company.

Irredeemable or Perpetual debentures are those which are not repayable at any time by the company during its existence. No date of redemption is specified. The debenture holders cannot claim their redemption. However, after the commencement of the Companies Act, 2013, a company cannot issue perpetual or irredeemable debentures.

Classification on the basis of “REGISTRATION”

Registered Debentures: Registered debentures are registered in the name of a particular person, the name appearing on the debenture certificate, and in the Register of Debenture holders of the company. These are transferable through execution of an “Instrument of Transfer i.e. FORM SH-4” duly stamped and executed and the conditions as specified in Section 56 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Bearer debentures: on the other hand, are transferred by mere delivery without any notice to the company just like a negotiable instrument. The Company keeps no record for such debentures. The person “holder in due course” of the debentures-certificate can claim principal and interest amount accrued thereon.

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September?

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September? After independence, the Government of India set a goal to give an ideal form to the mother tongue of the country and set a target for grammar and orthography using the Devanagari script to bring standardization in writing. Subsequently, on September 14, 1949, the Constituent Assembly decided by a vote that Hindi would be the official language of India. To propagate the importance of this decision and to spread Hindi in every region, India is celebrating Hindi Day every year from 1953 to 14 September, at the request of Rashtrabhasha Prachar Samiti, Wardha. Apart from this, 14 September is also the birthday of Rajendra Singh, who worked tirelessly to make Hindi the official language of India. Hindi Day is observed every year on 14 September to mark the importance of the Hindi language in the country. The Hindi language is one of the oldest languages, which derives most of its academic vocabulary from the Sanskrit language written in the Deva
