The portion of share capital which the company has asked shareholder to pay is?

The portion of the share capital that a company has asked its shareholders to pay is called "called-up capital". Share capital is the total amount of money that a company raises by issuing shares to investors. The company may decide to issue shares for only a portion of the total share capital and ask the shareholders to pay for only that portion. This portion of the share capital that the company has asked the shareholders to pay is referred to as the "called-up capital". So, in simple terms, "called-up capital" is the portion of the total share capital that a company has asked its shareholders to actually pay for.
