The security premium account can be used only for the 4 purpose mentioned in the Companies Act - Issue of Fully paid bonus shares - To write off preliminary expenses - To write off expenses / commission/ discount on issue of shares or debentures - For Premium on redemption of redeemable preference shares / debentures
The capital redemption reserve account can be applied by the company, in paying up unissued shares of the company to be issued to members of the company as fully paid bonus shares.
Since the act has stipulated clearly the purpose for which they can be used, we shall not be able to use them for any other purpose
