On the reaction day the stock moved 2.2 pts more than Nifty Midcap 150 and 2.4 pts more than its Edible Oil 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.
Patanjali Foods' Board, at its July 17, 2025 meeting, approved a bonus issue in the ratio of 2:1, meaning 2 new equity shares of Rs. 2 face value for every 1 existing share held. Approximately 72.50 crore new equity shares will be issued, taking the post-bonus share count to about 108.75 crore shares (paid-up capital of Rs. 217.50 crore). The bonus will be funded by capitalizing capital redemption reserve, securities premium, and/or general reserve — the company had over Rs. 5,389 crore in these reserves as of March 31, 2025, well above the Rs. 145 crore required. The issue is subject to shareholder approval via postal ballot, with the record date to be announced later and bonus shares expected to be credited by September 16, 2025.
Eligible shareholders will receive 2 additional shares for every share they hold, increasing their holding count threefold. While the share price will adjust downward proportionally on the ex-date, the total value of holdings should remain unchanged, though improved liquidity from a lower share price may attract more retail investors.
