the debts, and the holder’s of the debenture are the
creditors of the company. Due to this, the
characteristics of debentures are very important.

company sign under its common seal, acknowledging
the debt due by it to the debenture holder. The
company promises to pay the periodic payment of
interest to the holder for the use of his funds. The
company pays the fixed rate interest to the holder.
