Hardwyn India bonus share: Hardwyn India, a manufacturer of kitchen, door, glass, wardrobe and sliding hardware solutions, rose over 2% on Tuesday, 9 June after it announced a bonus issue in the ratio of 2:5 for its shareholders. The announcement was made following a meeting of the company’s board of directors held on June 5.
According to the exchange filing, the board approved the issuance of “bonus equity shares in the ratio of 2:5 i.e., 2 bonus equity shares of ₹1 each fully paid-up for every 5 equity shares of ₹1 each fully paid-up held by the shareholders of the company as on the record date, by capitalization of free reserves/retained earnings, subject to the approval of members in Extraordinary General Meeting”.
The record date for determining shareholder eligibility for the 2:5 bonus issue has not yet been announced. The company stated that the bonus shares are expected to be credited or dispatched within two months of board approval, which means the process is likely to be completed by August 4.
The company has scheduled an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on July 3, where shareholders will vote on the bonus issue proposal. June 26 has been fixed as the cut-off date for determining shareholder eligibility to participate in the voting process.
As part of the proposed bonus issue, Hardwyn India plans to issue nearly 19.54 crore new equity shares to eligible shareholders through the capitalisation of free reserves and retained earnings. The company’s free reserves and retained earnings stood at ₹19.65 crore at the end of FY26.
A bonus issue involves the distribution of additional shares to existing shareholders without any extra cost. Such corporate actions are generally viewed as a reflection of a company’s financial strength and growth prospects. While a bonus issue increases the total number of outstanding shares, it does not impact the company’s market capitalisation. However, it can improve liquidity and make the stock more affordable for retail investors.
Alongside the bonus issue proposal, the board also approved an increase in the company’s authorised share capital from ₹50 crore, comprising 50 crore equity shares of face value ₹1 each, to ₹70 crore, comprising 70 crore equity shares of face value ₹1 each.
