Q. on 31st march2007 mohini ltd. , issued 4000-7% debnture of rs. 500 each at rs. 475 each. debentureholders had an option to convert their holding into 8% pref. share of rs. 100 each at a premium of rs. 25 per share. on 31st march 2008 one year's interest had accrued on these deb. and remained unpaid.

a holder of 100 deb. notified his intention to convert his holding into 8 % pref. shares.

i made only two  journal entries -

1. debenture interest a/c dr. 1,40,000

To deb. int. outstanding 1,40,000

To discount on issue of deb. a/c 2500

To 8% pref. share capital a/c38000

 if u hav to pass journal entry and to prepare balanceshet as on 31.03.08, u need not wan to pass entry for transaction which took place before 1.4.07. in simple, oly those transaction which took place on or after 1.04.07 will appear. therefore no entry required for the transaction which happened on 31.03.07

ok ....my entries are right or wrong.... and where i will have to show "To discount on issue of deb. a/c 2500" in the balance sheet

 i think u hav to show under asset side of the balancesheet as "Discount on issue of Debentures" [under Misc. Exp] and 1/5th should be written off  every year [Same like Preliminary. Expenses]
