fully paid shares/fully paid -up stock/ for capital reduction/decrease//diminution of capital


Explanation:
Sin contexto, debería ser esto, pues para reducir el capital deben ser acciones emitidas y totalmente liberadas/desembolsadas.


Sugiero consultar el Alcaraz Varó Hughes Financiero, págs. 728 "acciones emitidas", 729, "acciones suscritas", y 1163, "reducir el capital social".

Treasury stock to reduce capital.


Explanation:
I found this website useful for explaining all the accounts in the PGC (in Spanish but the explanantions definitions help to pinpoint the meanings):
http://www.abanfin.com/modules.php?name=Encyclopedia&op=list...
For account 199 "Acciones propias para reducción de capital" the definition is -
Figura en el pasivo del balance. Son las adquiridas por la empresa en ejecución de un cuerdo de reducción de capital adoptado por la Junta General.
