Ordinary and preference shares debentures securities also things like equity stock etc.
ordinary shares are equity whereas debentures are debt - debt is always payable, whereas, equity holders do not always necessarily demand a dividend payment immediately. it would depend on what the company wanted to use the funds for. if the funds were used to fund a project where the returns were not expected for a few years, a company may wish to issue shares rather than debentures as the debentures would have to be paid regardless of when the returns came.

these debentures which give an option to their holder to convert them into equity or preference shares at specified rate of exchange after a certain period. when such debenture holders exercise the right of convertion, they cease to be lenders to the company and become its members. the convertible debentures may be fully convertible or partly convertible

A debenture is an unsecured loan you offer to a company. The company does not give any collateral for the debenture, but pays a higher rate of interest to its creditors. In case of bankruptcy or financial difficulties, the debenture holders are paid later than bondholders. Debentures are different from stocks and bonds, although all three are types of investment. Below are descriptions of the different types of investment options for small investors and entrepreneurs.Debentures and SharesWhen you buy shares, you become one of the owners of the company. Your fortunes rise and fall with that of the company. If the stocks of the company soar in value, your investment pays off high dividends, but if the shares decrease in value, the investments are low paying. The higher the risk you take, the higher the rewards you get.Debentures are more secure than shares, in the sense that you are guaranteed payments with high interest rates. The company pays you interest on the money you lend it until the maturity period, after which, whatever you invested in the company is paid back to you. The interest is the profit you make from debentures. While shares are for those who like to take risks for the sake of high returns, debentures are for people who want a safe and secure income.
