Avax Apparels and Ornaments' board, meeting on February 17, 2026, approved a sub-division of equity shares from face value ₹10 to ₹5 (every 1 share to become 2), aimed at improving liquidity and retail participation. It also approved a bonus issue in the ratio of 3:1, which will lead to issuance of 62,34,948 new equity shares of ₹5 each, to be funded from free reserves and share premium (₹311.75 Lacs required; ₹557.03 Lacs available as of March 31, 2025). Post these actions, paid-up share count will rise from 20,78,316 to 83,13,264 shares. Additionally, Mr. Harinderpal Singh Sodhi and Mr. Deepak Kumar have been re-designated as Joint Managing Directors and KMPs for a 5-year term (Feb 17, 2026 to Feb 16, 2031). Mr. Deepak Kumar is the spouse of existing Whole Time Director Ms. Deepika Garg, confirming family presence on the board. Both actions are subject to shareholder approval, with completion expected within two months.
The stock split and 3:1 bonus will substantially expand the share count and could boost liquidity and retail interest, though the share price will adjust downward mathematically. The re-designation of two directors as JMDs, including a family member of an existing WTD, concentrates executive authority and family influence in management, which shareholders should note for governance reasons.
