Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's assess the statutory rules:Statement (A) is correct as per Section 39 of the Companies Act, application money must be at least 5% of the face value.Statement (B) is correct; calls must strictly adhere to the guidelines set out in the company’s internal Articles of Association.Statement (C) is correct; if a company does not register its own articles, the model guidelines (Table F under Companies Act 2013 / Table A under 1956) dynamically substitute as default rules.Statement (D) is incorrect because Section 50 mandates that calls must be made on a completely uniform basis for all shares falling within the exact same class.Thus, (A), (B) and (C) only are correct.
