Question:

What is the significance of receiving the minimum subscription for the company?

Options:

It guarantees allotment of shares to all applicants

It allows the company to proceed with share allotment

It ensures no legal formalities are required

It exempts the company from sending letters of regret

Correct Answer:

It allows the company to proceed with share allotment

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2- It allows the company to proceed with share allotment.

The significance of receiving the minimum subscription is that it allows the company to move forward with the process of share allotment.

Share allotment is the process through which the company formally assigns and distributes shares to the applicants who have expressed interest in subscribing to the company's shares. Without meeting the minimum subscription requirement of 90%, a company can't proceed with share allotment.
