On Monday, August 18, the stock will turn ex-date for bonus shares and stock split, making Algoquant Fintech, a small-cap company in the financial services industry, the centre of attention.
Since Monday, August 18, 2025, is the record date for its bonus issue and stock split, Algoquant Fintech will be the subject of attention tomorrow.
The corporation has simultaneously announced two major corporate actions: a 1:2 stock split, where the face value of each share would be reduced from Rs 2 to Rs 1, and bonus shares in an 8:1 ratio, which means owners will receive eight new shares for every one they already own.
In India, the stock market operates on a T+1 settlement cycle. This means that a trade is settled i.e., the shares are credited to the buyer’s demat account and the funds are credited to the seller’s account one business day after the transaction date (T).
The record date is the cutoff date used to determine which shareholders are eligible to receive corporate action benefits. Additionally, the ex-date is the day when the stock starts trading without the corporate action’s benefits. You won’t be eligible to get the benefits if you purchase the shares on or after the ex-date. In the case of Algoquant Fintech, both the ex-date and record date are on Monday, August 18, 2025.
An investor must have bought the shares by Friday, August 15, 2025, at the latest, in order to be eligible for the bonus issue and stock split. By doing this, the shares would be in their demat account on the record date, allowing the deal to settle by Monday, August 18. The transaction will settle on Tuesday, August 19, after the record date, if an investor purchases the shares on Monday, August 18. As a result, the corporate action will not apply to them.
This means that Monday, August 18, is a key day for Algoquant Fintech since it will be the first day that the stock trades after the bonus issuance and stock split adjustments, which will cause a big change in its trading price and a lot of attention from investors.
The number of outstanding shares will rise dramatically as a result of this corporate activity, improving liquidity and expanding retail engagement. Investor interest is anticipated to soar as a result of the split, which will halve the face value of each share and issue eight bonus shares for every one held.
This will make the counter extremely busy throughout the days leading up to and on the day the bonus issue and stock split take effect. Price adjustments, trade volumes, and overall sentiment will all be actively monitored by market players as the stock goes through this twin reward-unlocking incident.
In terms of financials, Algoquant Fintech’s net profit plummeted 68.10% to Rs 4.44 crore in the June 2025 quarter compared to Rs 13.92 crore in the June 2024 quarter. Compared to the year-ago quarter, which ended in June 2024, when sales were Rs 65.63 crore, sales in the quarter ending in June 2025 fell 16.96% to Rs 54.50 crore.

Investors should be booking profits at current levels as a Daily close below support of 1349 could lead to a target of 1225 in the near term,” commented A R Ramachandran, independent research analyst.
