MCX's board has approved a sub-division/split of each equity share of face value Rs. 10 into 5 equity shares of face value Rs. 2 (1:5 ratio). The split aims to make the stock more affordable and accessible to retail investors, and is subject to statutory/regulatory and shareholder approvals; the record date will be announced later. Paid-up share capital remains unchanged at Rs. 50.99 crore (5,09,98,369 shares pre-split, becoming 25,49,91,845 shares post-split). Alongside, MCX posted strong Q1 FY26 consolidated results: income from operations of Rs. 373.21 crore (up ~59% YoY), and net profit after tax of Rs. 203.19 crore (up ~83% YoY), with EPS of Rs. 39.84 on a pre-split basis. On the standalone side, net profit nearly doubled YoY to Rs. 156.88 crore. A Rs. 4.50 crore excess provision was also written back following the disposal of certain SEBI notices.
The 1:5 split lowers the per-share price, improving affordability and trading liquidity for retail investors without changing the company's market value. Combined with a sharp jump in Q1 profits, the announcement is broadly positive for sentiment and could attract wider retail participation once approved.
