On the reaction day the stock moved 2.2 pts more than Nifty Smallcap 250 and 1.6 pts more than its Healthcare Service Provider peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Board approved Q2 and H1 FY26 results, reviewed by the auditor with no modification. It declared a second interim dividend of Rs 7 per share (record date November 7). A 1:1 bonus of 8.38 crore shares, from securities premium, needs approval. RSU 2025 permits up to 5,27,403 shares at face-value exercise price, vesting in 1-4 years, from the ESOP 2022 reserve. Standalone comparatives were restated. Authorized capital goes to Rs 200 crore.
The dividend and bonus support shareholder returns, but the bonus adds no value. RSU 2025 dilution is about 0.3 percent. Approval is pending.
