Solution

The correct option is D Nil
When the premium on shares is not received by the company then only it debits the unpaid premium amount while forfeiting the shares.
In this question, the company has received 25% premium from Mamta on her 2,000 shares. Hence, no amount would be debited to premium account on forfeit of shares since the amount to be received is excluding the security premium amount which is taken earlier by the company.
