Solution

The correct option is A Rs. 50,000
In case fresh shares are issued at premium then in such case only nominal value of the share will be transferred to C.R.R. Account and premium will be transferred to "Securities Premium Account".
Amount to be transferred to Capital Redemption Reserve:
Face value of shares redeemed (2,000 X 100) = 2,00,000
Less: Proceeds from new issue (1,500 X 100) = 1,50,000
50,000
