PRIME ACADEMY 41st SESSION PROGRESS TEST - BUSINESS LAW ETHICS AND COMMUNICATION

SUGGESTED ANSWERS PART - A

I.

1. Correct. After incorporation, the company in the eyes of law becomes a different person from the

shareholders who have formed the company. The company has its own existence and as a result the

shareholders cannot be held liable for the acts of the company even though they hold the entire

share capital of the company. This recognition of the company as a separate legal entity and being

liable for its own acts and liabilities, is known as the “Corporate Veil”.

2. Incorrect. Company having the liability of its members limited by the memorandum to such amount

as the members may respectively undertake to contribute to the assets of the company in the event

of its being wound up. Thus, the liability of the members of a guarantee company is limited to a

stipulated amount in terms of individual guarantees given by members and mentioned in the

memorandum.

3. Incorrect. Section 14 (1) states that subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 2013 and the

conditions contained in the Memorandum, a company may, by special resolution, alter its Articles

including alterations which may have the effect of converting a public company into a private

company (or vice versa).The effect of converting a public company into a private company will not

have any effect except with the approval of the Tribunal which may pass such order as it deems fit.

4. Correct. Under Section 40 (6) of the Companies Act 2013, provides that a company may pay

commission to any person in connection with the subscription or procurement of subscription to its

securities, subject to the following conditions which are prescribed under the Companies (Prospectus

and Allotment of Securities) Rules, 2014:(a) the payment of such commission shall be authorized in

the company’s articles of association;(b) the commission may be paid out of proceeds of the issue or

the profit of the company or both;

5. Incorrect. A company is not allowed to register a minor as a member except under guardianship of a

person competent to enter into a contract.

II. Choose the correct answer from the options given:

2. 15 days

3. Vedanta

PART - B

1.

a) Pragmatic reasons for maintaining ethical behavior : Marketing executives should practice ethical

bahaviour because it is morally correct. To maintain ethical behavior in marketing, the following

positive reasons may be useful to the marketing executives:

1. To reverse declining public confidence in marketing: Sometime misleadingpackage labels,

false claim in advertisement, phony list prices, infringement oftrademarks pervert the

market trends and such behavior damages the marketers’ reputation. To reverse this

situation, business leaders must demonstrate convincinglythat they are aware of their

ethical responsibility and will fulfill it. Companies must sethigh ethical standards and enforce

them. Moreover, it is in management’s interest to be concerned with the well being of

consumers, since they are the lifeblood of a business.

2. To avoid increase in government regulation: Business apathy, resistance, or token responses

to unethical behavior increase the probability of more governmentalregulation. The

governmental limitations may also result from management’s failure tolive up to its ethical

responsibilities. Moreover, once the government control isintroduced, it is rarely removed.

3. To retain power granted by society: Marketing executives wield a great deal of socialpower

as they influence markets and speak out on economic issues. However, there isa

responsibility tied to that power. If marketers do not use their power in a sociallyacceptable

manner, that power will be lost in the long run.

4. To protect the image of the organisation: Buyers often form an impression of anentire

organisation based on their contact with one person. That person represents themarketing

function. Sometimes a single sales clerk may pervert the market opinion inrelation to that

company which he represents.

Therefore, the ethical behavior in marketing may be strengthened only through the behavior of

the marketing executives.

b) Correct. Economic growth has to be environmentally sustainable. There is no economicgrowth

without ecological costs. Industrialization and rapid development have affected theenvironment.

Everybody should realize that such development is related to environmental damage and resource

depletion.

Therefore, an element of resource regeneration and positive approach to environment has to be

incorporated in development programs. Sustainable development refers to

maintainingdevelopment over time. Sustainable development is development that meets the

needs of thepresent without comprising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

A nation or society should satisfy its social, economic and other requirement without jeopardizing

theinterest of future generations.

High economic growth means high rate of extraction, transformation and utilization of

nonrenewableresources. Therefore it is suggested that economic growth has to

beenvironmentally sustainable because it is sure that there is no economic growth

withoutecological cost.

receipt of notice.

Refusal to register: Under section 58 (4) if a public company without sufficient cause refuses to

instrument of transfer is delivered to the company, the transferee may, within a period of sixty

days of such refusal or where no intimation has been received from the company, within ninety

days of the delivery of the instrument of transfer, appeal to the Tribunal.

3.

(a) A company is a holding company of another only if the other is its subsidiary. Section 2 (87) of

the Companies Act 2013 lays down the circumstances under which a company becomes a

subsidiary company of another company which becomes its holding company. These

circumstances are as under:

a) When the holding company controls the composition of Board of Directors of the

subsidiary company or companies, or

b) When the holding company exercises or controls more than one half of the total share

capital either on its own or together with one or more of its subsidiary companies, or

c) Where a company is the holding company of the company which fulfils any of the above

conditions, e.g., if A Ltd is the holding company of B Ltd, but C Ltd is the holding company

of A Ltd, then B Ltd will automatically become a subsidiary of C Ltd.

(b) Buy back of securities

In accordance with section 68 of the Companies Act, 2013, a company may buy back of its own

shares or other specified securities, out of the following sources:

1. Company's free reserves; or

2. Company's securities premium account; or

3. Out of the proceeds of any shared or other specified securities.

However, no buy-back of any kind of shares or other specified securities shall be made out of

securities. Conditions that must be complied with are as laid down in section 68 (2):

1) Buy-back is authorized by the Company’s Articles.

2) A special resolution has been passed in general meeting of the company authorizing buy-

back.

3) The buy-back is less than 25% of the aggregate of the total paid-up capital and free

reserves of the company. Moreover, the buy-back of equity shares, cannot exceed 25% of

company’s paid up equity share capital in a financial year. However, section 68 (2) has

authorized the Board of Directors through a Board Resolution, provided the buy back does

Page 19: ACADEMY PRIME Assets: Proposed addition ? Stock in Trade ? Profit and loss appropriation A/c ? Sundry Debtors ? 10% debentures ? Bank Balance 1,250 Current Liabilities ? Total ? Total

PRIME/41st/IPC 5

not exceed 10% of the total paid up equity share capital and free reserves. However, there

cannot be more than one such buy-back in any period of 365 days.

4) The ratio of the aggregate of secured and unsecured debt owed by the company is not

more than twice the equity capital and free reserve after such buy back. However, the

Central Government may prescribe a higher ratio of the debt for a class or classes of

companies.

5) All shares or other specified securities are fully-paid-up,

6) The buy back with respect to listed securities is in accordance with the regulations made

by the SEBI in this behalf.

Time limit for completion of buy–back: Under section 68 (4), every buy–back shall be completed

within 12 months from the date of passing the special resolution or a resolution passed by the

Board where the buy back is up to 10% of the aggregate of paid up capital and free reserves.

(c) Variation of shareholders rights

Section 48 of the Companies Act, 2013 provides the laws with respect to the variation of rights

attached to the shares. The provision states that “Where a share capital of the company is

divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to the shares of any class may be

varied with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three-fourths of the issued

shares of that class or by means of a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the

holders of the issued shares of that class”,—

a) if provision with respect to such variation is contained in the memorandum or articles of

the company; or

b) in the absence of any such provision in the memorandum or articles, if such variation is

not prohibited by the terms of issue of the shares of that class:

Provided that if variation by one class of shareholders affects the rights of any other class of

shareholders, the consent of three-fourths of such other class of shareholders shall also be

obtained and the provisions of this section shall apply to such variation.

4.

(a) Mainly ethical issues can be categorized in the framework of their relation with business

associates, conflicts of interest, fairness and honesty, and communications. Fairness and

honesty are at the heart of business ethics and relate to the general values of decision makers.

At a minimum, businesspersons are expected to follow all applicable laws and regulations. But

beyond obeying the law, they are expected not to harm customers, employees, clients, or

competitors knowingly through deception, misrepresentation, coercion, or discrimination.

One aspect of fairness and honesty is related to disclosure of potential harm caused by

product use. For example, Mitsubishi Motors, a Japanese automaker, faced criminal charges and

negative publicity after executives admitted that the company had systematically covered up

customer complaints about tens of thousands of defective automobiles over a 20-year period in

order to avoid expensive and embarrassing product recalls.

PRIME/41st/IPC 6

Another aspect of fairness relates to competition. Although numerous laws have been

passed to foster competition and make monopolistic practices illegal, companies sometimes

gain control over markets by using questionable practices that harm competition. Rivals of

Microsoft, for example, accused the software giant of using unfair and monopolistic practices to

maintain market dominance with its Internet Explorer browser.

(b) Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR) is an integrated combination of policies, programs,

education, and practices which extend throughout a corporation’s operations and into the

communities in which they operate, about how companies voluntarily manage the business

processes to produce an overall positive impact on society. CSR can mean different things to

different people:

• for an employee it can mean fair wages, no discrimination, acceptable working conditions

etc.

• for a shareholder it can mean making responsible and transparent decisions regarding the

use of capital.

• for suppliers it can mean receiving payment on time.

• for customers it can mean delivery on time, etc.

• for local communities and authorities it can mean taking measures to protect the

environment from pollution.

• for non-governmental organizations and pressure groups it can mean disclosing business

practices and performance on issues ranging from energy conservation and global

warming to human rights and animal rights, from protection of the rainforests and

endangered species to child and forced labour, etc.

5.

a) Section 40 (6) of the Companies Act 2013, provides that a company may pay commission to any

person in connection with the subscription or procurement of subscription to its securities,

whether absolute or conditional, subject to the a number of conditions which are prescribed

under Companies (Prospectus and Allotment of Securities) Rules, 2014. In relation to the case

given, the conditions applicable under the above Rules are as under:

(i) The payment of such commission shall be authorized in the company’s articles of

association;

(ii) The commission may be paid out of proceeds of the issue or the profit of the company

orboth;

(iii) The rate of commission paid or agreed to be paid shall not exceed, in case of shares, five

percent (5%) of the price at which the shares are issued or a rate authorized by the

articles, whichever is less, and in case of debentures, shall not exceed two and a half per

cent (2.5 %) of the price at which the debentures are issued, or as specified in the

company’s articles, whichever is less;

Thus, the Underwriting commission is limited to 5% of issue price in case of shares and 2.5% in

case of debentures. The rates of commission given above are maximum rates. In view of the

above the decision of Unique Builders Ltd to pay underwriting commission exceeding 2% as

prescribed in the Articles is invalid.

PRIME/41st/IPC 7

The company may pay the underwriting commission in the form of flats as both the Companies

Act and the Rules do not impose any restriction on the mode of payment though the source has

been restricted to either the proceeds of the issue or profits of the company.

b) Section 106 (1) of the Companies Act, 2013 states that the articles of a company may provide

that no member shall exercise any voting right in respect of any shares registered in his nameon

which any calls or other sums presently payable by him have not been paid, or in regard towhich

the company has exercised any right of lien.In the present case the articles of the company do

not permit a shareholder to vote if he hasnot paid the calls on the shares held by him.

Therefore, the chairman at the meeting is wellwithin its right to refuse him the right to vote at

the meeting and J’s contention is not valid.

6.

a) Change in the name of company: In the first instance, Mars Textile India Ltd., shouldascertain

from the Registrar of Companies whether the proposed name viz. National Textilesand

Industries Ltd. is available or not. For this purpose, the company should file theprescribed Form

No.1A with the Registrar along with the necessary fees. The Registrar afterexamination will

inform whether the new name is available or not for registration.

In case the name is available, the company has to pass a special resolution approving thechange

of name to National Textiles and Industries Ltd.Thereafter the approval of the Central

Government should be obtained as provided in Section13(2)of the Companies Act, 2013. The

power of Central Government in this regard has beendelegated to the Registrar of Companies.

Thus, the company has to file an application alongwith the prescribed filing fee for change of

name. The change of name shall be complete andeffective only on the issue of a fresh certificate

of incorporation by the Registrar. The Registrarshall enter the new name in the Register in place

of the former name13 (3). The change ofname shall not affect any rights or obligations of the

company and it shall not render defectiveany legal proceedings by or against it.

b) Under section 67 (3) of the Companies Act, 2013 a company is allowed to give a loan to

itsemployees subject to the following limitations:

(i) The employee must not be a key managerial personnel;

(ii) The amount of such loan shall not exceed an amount equal to six months’ salary of the

employee.

(iii) The shares to be subscribed must be fully paid shares

Section 2 (51) defines the “Key Managerial Personnel” (KMP) whereby a KMP includes the

chief executive, company secretary, whole time director, Chief Financial Officer or any other

officer who may be prescribed.

We can assume the Mr P being a fiancé manager is not a KMP of the company.

Keeping the above provisions of law in mind, the Board’s decision is invalid due to two reasons:

i. The amount being more than 6 months’ salary of Mr P, which should have restricted the

loan to ` 1.8 Lakhs.

ii. The shares subscribed are partly paid shares where as the benefit is available only for

subscribing in fully paid shares.

Notes: (1) For computation of perquisite value of concessional accommodation, 40% of dearness

allowance (i.e. ` 48,000) should be taken into consideration as forming part of salary, since the question clearly mentions that only 40% is to be reckoned for superannuation benefits. Therefore, salary for the purpose of perquisite valuation would be `4,08,000 [i.e., (`3,60,000 + 48,000].

(2) In a case where the accommodation is taken on lease or rent by the employer and provided to the employee, the value of perquisite would be lower of the actual amount of lease rental paid or payable by the employer [i.e. `1,08,000, being 9,000 x 12) and 15% of salary [ i.e., `61,200, being 15% of `2,88,000]. This value (i.e. `61,800) would be reduced by the rent paid by the employee (i.e., `72,000, being 6,000 x 12). The value of concessional accommodation is Nil [i.e. `61,800 – `72,00].

(3) In determining the value of perquisite resulting from the provision of free or concessional educational facilities, from a plain reading of the proviso to Rule 3(5), it is possible to take a view that if the cost of education per child exceeds `1,000 per month, the entire cost will be taken as the value of the perquisite. Accordingly, the full amount of `4,000 per month is taxable as perquisite. It has been assumed that the education is provided free-of-cost to Mr.Rajan’s son since the question is silent regarding the same. In such a case, the value of the perquisite would be `48,000 (i.e. `2,000 × 12).

(4) The entire employer’s contribution to Central Government Pension scheme should be included in salary and deduction under section 80CCD should be restricted to 10% of salary.

(5) Employee’s contribution to Central Government Pension Scheme is not given in the question. However, since the employer is contributing `3,000 per month to the pension account and generally, the employer makes a matching contribution, therefore, the problem has been solved assuming that the employee has made a contribution of `3,000 per month. Even if it is assumed that the employee has contributed only 10% of salary, the same would not affect the answer, since deduction under section 80CCD is to be restricted to 10% of salary.

6. All the incomes are taxable under all the three status.

Particulars `

Invoice price exclusive of taxes 40,000 Less: Insurance charges 500

Outward freight 6,200

Assessable value 33,300

Computation of Excise duty: 33,300 x 12.36% 4,116

Note: Packing charges are includible in assessable value, deduction for the same has not been provided.

8. Since the manufacturer charged only ` 22,060 and he is not able to recover any extra amount from customer, this amount is required to be treated as price–cum– duty. Hence, differential duty payable by him will be computed as under:

Particulars `

Price-cum-duty Excise duty @ 12.36% [` 22,060 x 12.36/112.36) Excise duty (rounded off) Differential excise duty to be paid [` 2,427 – ` 2,060 (duty already paid)]

22,060 2,426.68

2,427 367

9. Computation of Capital Gains Chargeable to tax for A.Y. 2015-16

Particulars ` ` Sale consideration (i.e. Stamp Duty Value) (Note-1) 220,00,000

Less: Commission @ 5% of ` 200 lakhs 10,00,000 ---------------- 210,00,000 Less: Indexed Cost of Acquisition

(`12,00,000 × 1024/100) 122,88,000 Indexed Cost of Improvement (`2,00,000 × 1024/480) 4,26,667 127,14,667 82,85,333 Less: Exemption under section 54 (Note-2) 20,00,000 Exemption under section 54EC (Note -3) 30,00,000 50,00,000 Taxable Capital Gains 32,85,333 Notes

a. As per the provisions of section 50C, in case the stamp duty value adopted by the stamp valuation authority is higher than the actual sale consideration, the stamp duty value shall be deemed as the full value of consideration.

b. Exemption under section 54 is available if a new residential house is purchased within one year before or two years after the date of transfer. Since the cost of new residential house is less than the capital gain, capital gain to the extent of cost of new house is exempt under section 54.

c. Exemption under section 54EC is available in respect of investment in specified bonds of RECL or NHAI if the investment is made within a period of six months after the date of such transfer. Further, investments made in such bonds by an assessee during any financial year cannot exceed ` 50 lakhs. In this case, although Prathap’s investments do not exceed the prescribed limit, he is not eligible to claim deduction under section 54EC in respect of investment of `20 lakhs made in NHAI bonds, since it was made after six months from the date of transfer. Therefore, he is eligible to claim exemption of ` 30 lakhs under section 54EC out of total investment of ` 50 lakhs.
