what is the minimum subscription according to the companies act?
Dear Student,
As per the Companies Act, the minimum subscription is 90% of the shares issued by the company. This implies that the company can allot shares to the applicants provided if applications for 90% of the issued shares are received. Otherwise, the company should refund the entire application amount received. In this regard, necessary Journal entry is passed only after receiving and refunding of the application money.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.
