in Section 56(2) the following clause shall be inserted with effect from the 1st day of April, 2013 (Applicable from AY-2013-14) namely:  
.
(viib) where a company, not being a company in which the public are substantially interested,
receives, in any previous year, from any person being a resident, any consideration for issue of
shares that exceeds the face value of such shares, the aggregate consideration received for such shares as exceeds the fair market value of the shares:

The phrase "any consideration"  includes calls unpaid  as on 31.03.12 and being received during the current FY.
