Hi can you paste a screen shot please of the question please because there appears to be a discrepancy in the data because

SEVENTY THOUSAND  shares applications money including premium will be debited to bank and credited to capital and premium accounts. 

Now, TWENTY THOUSAND extra applications received is amounting to ONE LAKH RUPEES All of this should be returned and the question is transferring that FORTY 5OUSAND RUPPES back to applicants and SIXTY THOUSAND RUPEES to allotment which is not possible. This money is to be returned back. 

Ya need to account for SIXTY THOUSAND
