Read the following passage and answer the following question.

ABC Ltd. took over Assets of ₹6,00,000 and Liabilities of ₹40,000 of XYZ Ltd. at an agreed value of ₹6,30,000. ABC Ltd. issued 10% Debentures of ₹100 each at a discount of 10% to XYZ Ltd. in full satisfaction of the purchase price. ABC Ltd. writes off any capital losses incurred during a year, at the end of that financial year.

How many debentures are issued by the company for the purchase consideration?

7,000

The correct answer is option 1- 7,000.

Nominal value of debenture = ₹100
Discount is 10% i.e. 100 X 10/100
                         = ₹10

Issue price = 100-10
                  = ₹90

No of debenture issued = Purchase consideration/ issue price
                                      = 6,30,000/90
                                      = 7,000
