Question

calculate the amount received on allotment ?​

Answer 1

When the company decides to allot the shares at pro-rata basis, then it has to allot 10000 shares to the applicants of 20000 shares. Thus, the ratio will be 20000:10000 i.e. 2:1. Hence, an applicant for 2 shares will receive 1 share. This is Pro-rata allotment.
