Russian term or phrase: Собственные акции (доли)
Does this mean the same as Собственный капитал, i.e. shareholders' equity?

Repurchased Shares
Explanation:
Выкупленные у акционеров акции учитывают на счете 81 "Собственные акции (доли)".
http://www.platinalog.ru/topic2868.html

As the inverse is obviously true, "Собственные акции (доли)" = "Repurchased Shares" rather than Treasury Shares.

In more detail:

The company either retires the repurchased shares or keeps them as treasury stock, available for re-issuance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Share_repurchase

Счет 81 "Собственные акции (доли)" предназначен для обобщения информации о наличии и движении собственных акций, выкупленных акционерным обществом у акционеров для их последующей перепродажи или аннулирования.
http://www.buh.ru/document-285

As "Собственные акции (доли)" are intended for "последующей перепродажи или аннулирования" they become Treasury Shares only if none of them is retired/cancelled and this is obviously not always the case, hence "Собственные акции (доли)" are equivalent to Treasury Shares only as a special case and in general means "Repurchased Shares".
