Sir Pls explain if a private Company has authorised capital of Rs. 50 Lacs and want to issue shares of Rs. 50 Lacs with Share Permium of Rs. 50 Lacs.

By issuing shares at 100% premium you are not exceeding the Authorised Capital as 50 will go to Share Premium and 50 will go to Share Capital. This is permitted.

Yes it is possible. Paid up capital is based on the face value of the share. Security premium is not a part of paid up capital. Security premium amount is credited to a separate account called Security premium account.
In law there is no restriction regarding premium amount but the same should be reasonable.
