Dear Investors,
Best Agrolife Limited is rewarding its shareholders with significant corporate actions — a share sub-division (stock split) and a bonus issue, aimed at improving liquidity, increasing retail participation, and enhancing shareholder value, while keeping the overall value of your investment unchanged.

Understanding the Sub-Division & Bonus Issue:
Let’s say you own 100 shares of Best Agrolife before the corporate actions.
Before Corporate Actions:
• Shares held: 100
• Face value: ₹10 per share
After Stock Split (1:10):
• Shares become: 100 × 10 = 1,000 shares
• Face value: ₹1 per share
After Bonus Issue (1:2):
• Bonus shares received: 1,000 ÷ 2 = 500 shares
• Total shares after bonus: 1000+ 500 (from bonus) = 1,500 shares
Your total investment value remains the same, but the number of shares increases, so the market price per share adjusts proportionately.
Important Note About Face Value
In this case, the face value changes only because of the stock split (from ₹10 to ₹1). The bonus issue does not change the face value — it only increases the number of shares by issuing additional shares from company reserves.
