qr is easy,but not possible 2 give here.To avoid such situation.u should attempt only solved problem from standard text book like .T.S.grewal n compiler n institute study module .If attempt in this order,u can solve any problem.Exercise qr should be attempted only when u r taking 3rd or 4th attempt of ca exam

this Q is from Institute's study material !

and i don't think there is anything wrong in trying Questions like this......i just want to chk whether my answer is wrong or the answer is printed wrongly in the txt book...... 

u should send ur soln along wid qr to guidance @ icai.org, also talk faculty member by getting h. n. from site

 i dont think capital includes 4000 shares of rs.100each...

the denominations of nominal value of the shares is wrong....
