For the 500000 shares the entry already would have been

Bank a/c                                                         DR 6000000

To Share allotment account                                                           2500000

To Share premium a/c                                                                     3500000

 

Now on forfeiture,

Share allotment Dr                                                2500000

To forfeited shatres                                                                                2500000
