Synopsis:
Univastu India approved a 2:1 bonus issue, offering two bonus shares for every existing share, boosting investor interest and enhancing stock visibility in the market.

Engaged in engineering, procurement, and construction services, the company is known for delivering infrastructure projects across multiple sectors has gained attention as the firm approved a 2:1 bonus issue, a move that places its stock firmly in focus among investors.

Univastu India Limited‘s stock, with a market capitalisation of Rs. 278.30 crores, rose to Rs. 238.05, hitting high of up to 2.87 percent from its previous closing price of Rs. 231.40. Furthermore, the stock over the past year has given a return of 56 percent.

Bonus issue

The company will issue bonus shares in a 2:1 ratio, which means for every 1 existing share a shareholder holds, they will receive 2 new shares for free. For example, if a shareholder owns 100 shares, they will get 200 new bonus shares, resulting in a total of 300 shares.

Bonus shares increase the number of shares a person owns but do not change the total value of their investment immediately. This happens because the price of each share adjusts downward proportionally after the bonus shares are issued. Bonus shares are often given as a reward to shareholders or to make shares more affordable and increase liquidity in the market.

Additionally, bonus shares are also reserved for holders of compulsory convertible warrants issued by the company, meaning those warrant holders will also receive bonus shares accordingly.

In summary, the 2:1 bonus share issue significantly increases the number of shares held by shareholders, but the overall investment value remains roughly the same due to the adjusted share price. Bonus is expected to be issued on 28 october 2025.
