Q2 Audit Paper (PCC & IPCC Nov 2009)

question he samjh me nahi aaya.

Comment on the following situation:

XYZ Ltd. Co.gave a donation of Rs.50000 each to a charitable society running a school and a trust set up for the service of Blinds during financial year ending on 31st March ,2009.The average net profits of the company for the last three years were 15 Lakhs.

Section 293 states the restriction on the power of the Board of Directors. As per 293(1)(e)the Board of Directors cannot  contribute to charitable and other funds not directly relating to the business of the company or the welfare of its employees, any amounts the aggregate of which will, in any financial year, exceed fifty thousand rupees or five per cent of its average net profits as determined in accordance with the provisions of sections 349 and 350 during the three financial years immediately preceding, whichever is greater.

 

In the instant case, the Board has contributed more than 5% of the average net profits as determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 349 and 350 during the last three years, which works out to Rs.75000/- and therefore contravenes the provisions of section-293 of the Companies Act.

However, as I know the question asked is out of course of PCC.
