Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

(A) Redeemable Debenture → These debentures are repaid by the company after a specified period. The repayment can be made either as a lump sum payment on maturity or in installments over time during the company's existence. This matches with (I).


(B) Perpetual Debenture → Also called irredeemable debentures, these have no fixed maturity date. The company does not commit to repaying the principal amount during its lifetime. They are only repaid when the company is liquidated. This matches with (II).


(C) Specific Coupon Rate Debenture → These debentures carry a fixed rate of interest mentioned on the debenture certificate, known as the coupon rate (for example, 10% Debentures, 12% Debentures). The interest is calculated on this specified rate. This matches with (III).


(D) Bearer Debenture → These are negotiable instruments that can be transferred simply by handing over (delivery) to another person without any formal transfer procedure. The company does not maintain a register of such debenture holders. This matches with (IV).


The correct matching is: (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
