Mumbai, September 25SMC Global Securities Limited has unveiled plans to reward its shareholders through a 1:1 bonus share issue, effectively doubling its paid-up share capital. Under the proposal, shareholders will receive one bonus equity share (face value ₹2) for every share they currently hold.

The company will issue 10.47 crore bonus shares, raising its total share count from 10.47 crore to 20.94 crore. The bonus issue will be funded by capitalizing ₹20.94 crore from the company’s reserves, including the Capital Redemption Reserve and the Securities Premium Account, based on audited financials for FY25.

Timeline and Approvals

  • Board Approval: September 24, 2025
  • Shareholder Approval: To be obtained via postal ballot
  • Expected Credit Date: By November 23, 2025

Strategic Implications

While the bonus issue does not alter the company’s market capitalization, it enhances shareholder value by increasing the number of shares held without any additional investment. Post-issue, the capital structure will be:

Particulars Pre-Bonus Issue Post-Bonus Issue
Authorized Shares 47,75,50,000 47,75,50,000
Paid-up Shares 10,47,00,000 20,94,00,000
Subscribed Shares 10,47,00,000 20,94,00,000

Outlook

The bonus share declaration reflects SMC Global Securities’ strong financial position and its commitment to enhancing shareholder returns. While the number of shares held by investors will double, the proportional ownership and total value of holdings will remain unchanged.

The company expects the bonus shares to be credited to investor accounts within the stipulated timeframe, subject to regulatory approvals.
