BSE Shares Soar 6% on Bonus Issue Record Date

Stock Adjusts to Bonus, But Investor Value Remains Intact

While some trading platforms showed a temporary dip of up to 66%, experts confirmed that this was a technical price adjustment due to the bonus shares issuance. The real value of the investment remains unchanged, as the number of shares held increases proportionally.

When Will Bonus Shares Be Credited?

The company has announced that bonus shares will be credited to demat accounts on May 26, and trading of the new shares will commence from May 27, 2025.

Strong Financial Performance Fuels Optimism

BSE’s recent quarterly results have impressed investors, with a 362% increase in net profit year-on-year to ₹494 crore and a 75% surge in revenue to ₹847 crore. These fundamentals have further boosted confidence in the stock.

Are You an Owner?

Investors who purchased BSE shares on or before May 22 are eligible for the bonus shares. This move aligns with BSE’s strategy of rewarding loyal shareholders and maintaining strong investor sentiment.
