Correct Answer: Capital reserve


Solution : Answer = Capital reserve

When debentures are purchased at a discount, the gain on cancellation is typically transferred to the Capital Reserve. Capital reserves are used to record gains or profits that are not generated from the company's ordinary business activities, such as gains from the purchase of debentures at a discount.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
