Correct Answer: Interest is payable on debentures issued as collateral security.


Solution : Answer = Interest is payable on debentures issued as collateral security.

The security given in addition to the primary or principal security is termed or known as Collateral Security. Collateral security is realised by the lender only if the due amount (loan plus interest) cannot be recovered by realising the primary or principal security. Interest is not payable on debentures issued as collateral security.
