1:10 Stock Split: A-1 Ltd shares will trade ex-split on Thursday, January 8 for 10:1 stock split. The move is aimed at improving liquidity and making the stock more accessible to investors.
A-1 Ltd has announced a stock split in the ratio of 1:10. Under the subdivision, each existing equity share with a face value of Rs 10 will be split into 10 equity shares with a face value of Rs 1 each.
The company has fixed January 8, 2026, as the record date for the corporate action. This also marks the ex-date. Investors holding the stock as of this date will be eligible for the split.
The stock split does not change the total value of a shareholder’s investment. The number of shares increases, while the price adjusts in the same proportion.
A stock split increases the number of outstanding shares and reduces the price per share accordingly. The company’s market value remains unchanged. Such actions are typically taken to improve trading liquidity and broaden investor participation.
Ahead of the ex-date, A-1 Ltd shares ended the previous trading session in the red. The stock fell nearly 5 per cent and hit its lower circuit on the BSE.
The counter opened at Rs 434.05, compared with the previous close of Rs 456.85, and remained under pressure through the session.
A-1 Ltd reported revenue of Rs 63.21 crore in the second quarter of FY26. Net profit stood at Rs 0.07 crore. Net profit margin was 0.11 per cent.
Revenue declined 18.78 per cent year-on-year and fell 2.44 per cent on a sequential basis. Net profit dropped 92.78 per cent from a year ago and declined 88.33 per cent quarter-on-quarter. Net profit margin also contracted sharply on both counts.
