12 June 2012 Dear Chintan

In this case the Timing of Share Allotment Money Due is before the receipt of the money. that is why u pass the due entry before the receipt entry.

[Ex:- when u buy goods from creditor the due entry comes before the payment entry]

in case of share application the timing of receipt of money falls before the application money due to company entry.
