Investors looking to benefit from the bonus shares must ensure they buy the stock before the ex-bonus date, as shares purchased on or after June 23 will not qualify for the bonus issuance.
“Pursuant to Regulation 42 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the Board of Directors has fixed Monday, June 23, 2025, as the Record Date for the purpose of determining the equity shareholders of the Company eligible for bonus equity shares of the Company,” V-Mart said in an exchange filing.
The retail giant had earlier announced a 3:1 bonus issue, which means that for every three shares held, eligible shareholders will receive one additional share at no extra cost. The bonus issue is expected to reward existing investors and is seen as a move to enhance the company’s capital base.
The record date for the bonus shares was set for June 23, and all shareholders on this date will automatically be entitled to the bonus. As the stock will trade ex-bonus from June 23 onward, today, June 20, is the last day to purchase V-Mart Retail shares for those seeking to secure the bonus shares.
