1:2 Stock Split: Darling Electric Share of Mutual Funds Approaches One-Year High Prior to Dividing Into Two Shares
Bharat Bijlee’s share price has increased by 145% from its 52-week low of Rs 2,395.40 per share.
The firm Bharat Bijlee plans to split its share price in half, or a 1:2 stock split. This entails a stock split of the current one equity share, which has a face value of Rs. 10 and is fully paid up, into two equity shares, each worth Rs. 5 and fully paid up, subject to any necessary regulatory or statutory approvals as well as the approval of the company’s members via postal ballot.
The Board will determine and notify the stock exchanges of the record date for the sub-division or split of equity shares.
A stock split is justified by the desire to increase the number of shareholders, improve capital market liquidity, and lower the price of shares for small retail investors. It is anticipated that the stock split will be finished in three months.
