All about V Marc India’s bonus issue
V Marc India announced in May that its board of directors considered and approved the plan to issue bonus shares in the ratio of 5:1. This means that an eligible shareholder will get 5 new bonus shares with a face value of Rs 10 each, for every share held in the company as on the record date, which was fixed on July 7.The cable maker proposed to issue 12.21 crore shares out of its free reserves or share premium as available on March 31, 2026, which stood at more than Rs 143 crore. “The bonus issue shall be implemented within two months from the date of the meeting of its board of directors wherein the decision to announce the bonus issue was taken subject to shareholders’ approval through Postal Ballot,” the company had said.
This marks the company’s first ever bonus issue. A bonus issue consists of free shares distributed by a company from its reserves and is often seen as a sign of strong financial health and growth prospects. While the issue of bonus shares increases the total number of outstanding shares, it does not change the company’s market capitalisation. However, it can improve liquidity and affordability, allowing more investors to add shares of the company to their portfolio.Also Read | Bonus issue alert!
