Best Agrolife Ltd

Best Agrolife Ltd will turn ex-date on January 16, 2026, for both a stock split and a bonus share issue.

The company has approved a 1:10 stock split, where each equity share with a face value of Rs 10 will be split into ten shares with a face value of Rs 1 each.

The record date and ex-date for both actions are January 16, 2026. The company aims to complete the process by January 31, 2026.

For example, an investor holding 100 shares will see the holding rise to 1,000 shares after the split. After the bonus issue, the total holding will increase to 1,500 shares. The total investment value remains unchanged immediately, as the share price adjusts proportionately on the ex-date. The new shares will be credited automatically to demat accounts.
