On Thursday, Shares of Patanjali Foods were trading around ₹ 595 in the morning, while they closed at ₹ 1,802.25 a day earlier. Bonus share announcement is the reason for such a fall in the share price. The company recently decided to give 2: 1 bonus share. This means that you have got two new shares for free for each share. That is, if you already have 100 shares, then after getting the bonus shares, you will have a total of 300 shares.
What is the meaning of ex-bone?
X-bonus means buying a share after that date when the company is giving bonus share, but you do not get the right of that bonus. Patanjali Foods had told on 17 July 2025 that he would give a bonus share to his investors in a ratio of 2: 1. That is, if you have a share, you will get two more free shares. For this, the company had a record date on 11 September 2025. Investors who kept their shares till September 11 became entitled to this bonus. But those who buy shares after this date will not get bonus shares. This entire process is technical and this does not affect the value of the total shares of investors in the long term. Its purpose is to increase liquidity in the stock market and add small investors.
Company status strong
After issuing the bonus shares, the total share of Patanjali Foods has increased to 108.75 crores. The company has given a total of 72.50 crore bonus shares.
