Equity share capital
From ACT Wiki
Companies - company law.
A company's equity share capital includes all of its ordinary share capital, but excludes any shares that have any preferential rights to dividends or to capital.
For example, preference shares are not equity shares, and they are not part of equity shaer capital.
