When to create a Debenture Redemption Reserve?

Most companies retire debentures by issuing another set of debentures, hence, most companies don't park funds for retiring debentures by creating any fund. The bond market will surely get affected negatively by such a move of the ministry of corporate affairs. Section 117C of the Companies Act, 1956, requires every company issuing debentures to create a debenture redemption reserve (DRR) for the redemption of such debentures and transfer an 'adequate' amount from its profits every year to such DRR until the issued debentures are redeemed. Hence, every issue of redeemable debentures requires creation of a DRR. The said Section, however, does not provide the meaning of the word 'adequate'. In the year 2002, the ministry of corporate affairs (MCA) issued a circular clarifying the meaning of 'adequate' and provided the percentage which is mandatorily required to be transferred to DRR by certain class of companies. However, to develop the bonds market, MCA issued another clarification circular on 11 February 2013 (Circular 2013)

What are the reasons for the creation of debenture redemption reserve fund?

Indian Companies Act of 1956 added during an amendment in the year 2000. It states Indian company that issues debentures must offer debenture redemption service to protect investors against the possibility of company default. If a company does not create a reserve within 12 months of issuing the debentures, they will be required to pay 2 percent interest in penalty to the debenture holders. Only debentures that were issued after the amendment in 2000 are subject to the debenture redemption service.
