Correct Answer: The company has the option to buy back the shares

 


Solution : The correct answer is (c) The company has the option to buy back the shares

Redeemable preference shares are those that the issuing company has the option to buy back or redeem after a certain period, as specified in the terms of the share issue. This provides the company with flexibility in managing its capital structure and financial obligations. It does not involve converting shares into debentures, granting voting rights to preference shareholders , or guaranteeing fixed dividends.
