Number of shares originally issued is not given

Particulars                                                                             Amount credited to Share Capital A/c

On Application                                                                      3x100 = 300

On Allotment                                                                         2x100 = 200

On 1st Call                                                                            3x100 = 300

Total                                                                                                       800

hence amount to be debited on forfeiture to share capital A/c is Rs. 800.
