Walchandnagar Industries Limited has informed the stock exchanges that the board of Walchandnagar Industries has recomended an issue of bonus shares to the equity shareholders apart from a Stock Split and a fat 100% special dividend to mark the centenary year for the company. The Walchandanagar Bonus Issue ratio, subject to shareholder approval is 1:1 and the ratio for the stock split is 5:1. The bonus issue, stock split and dividend are subject to shareholders approval in the forthcoming AGM.
I just checked on announcement section for Walchandnagar Indistris Limited on NSEindia.com (http://www.nseindia.com/marketinfo/companyinfo/eod/announcements.jsp?symbol=WALCHANNAG).
There is no announcement of stock split at all.
On 28 Nov 2007, it lists bonus related announcement as:
“Walchandnagar Industries Ltd had informed the Exchange regarding the issue of Bonus Shares in the ratio of 1:1, subject to approval of shareholders and other necessary regulatory approvals.”
So where is split happening? Is it confirmed news or a rumour?
The record date for Bonus issue for walchandnagar is 3rd march 2008…..
bonus share___ 1:1
split___ 5:1
