Debentures issued as collateral security are held as a guarantee for a loan or obligation. They are not considered actively issued unless the borrower defaults and the lender enforces the collateral.
In accounting, no interest is payable on such debentures unless they are claimed due to a default.
If the debentures were actively issued, the interest would be:
Total face value = 10,000 debentures × ₹100:
Total Face Value = 10,000 × ₹100 = ₹10,00,000
Interest rate = 9% per annum:
Yearly Interest = (9/100) × ₹10,00,000 = ₹90,000
Since the debentures are issued as collateral security, no interest is payable unless the collateral is enforced (e.g., due to a default). The problem does not indicate any default.
Therefore, the interest payable is zero.
Options provided:
Since no interest is payable, the correct answer is Option 1: No interest payable.
Note: ₹90,000 would be the interest if the debentures were actively issued, but the collateral security condition negates this.
The yearly interest payable is Option 1: No interest payable.
