Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Patanjali Foods Limited is issuing bonus shares in the ratio of 2:1, meaning 2 new equity shares of ₹2 each for every 1 existing equity share held, subject to shareholder approval via postal ballot (e-voting open from July 23 to August 21, 2025). The record date is yet to be determined. This communication specifically targets physical shareholders, asking them to dematerialize their shares and update KYC with the Registrar (Sarthak Global Limited) so they can receive the bonus shares, as SEBI rules now require bonus shares to be allotted only in demat form. Shareholders who fail to dematerialize will have their bonus shares moved to a separate Suspense Escrow Demat account. The filing also references a final dividend of ₹2 per share (pre-bonus) for FY 2024-25, which will be paid only through electronic mode.
The 2:1 bonus issue is a significant capital event that effectively triples the number of shares held by shareholders, though the share price will adjust downward proportionally post-record date. Shareholders holding shares in physical form must act quickly to dematerialize and complete KYC to avoid delays or complications in receiving both the bonus shares and the declared dividend.
