Synopsis: A stock broker has announced a 1:10 stock split with February 26, 2026 as the ex-date, making tomorrow the final day to buy shares to qualify. The move aims to improve liquidity.
Investors are closely tracking a stock that is set to undergo a 1:10 stock split, with the record date fast approaching. The upcoming corporate action has drawn significant market attention, as shareholders must own the stock before the specified date to be eligible. Trading activity has picked up ahead of the deadline.
With Market Capitalization of Rs. 22,535.48 crore, Angel One Limited is trading at 2,479 per equity share, down by 0.49 percent from its previous day’s closing price of Rs. 2,491.30 per equity share.
What’s the News?
Investors looking to benefit from the upcoming stock split of Angel One Ltd have a limited window left. The company has announced a 1:10 stock split, and the ex-date is February 26, 2026. This means tomorrow is the last trading session to buy the shares in order to be eligible for the split benefits.
Under the 1:10 split ratio, every 1 existing share will be split into 10 shares, increasing the number of shares held while proportionally reducing the face value per share. While the overall investment value remains the same immediately after the split, such corporate actions generally improve liquidity and make the stock more affordable for retail investors.
Investors must ensure they purchase the shares before the ex-date to qualify. Shares bought on or after February 26, 2026 will not be eligible for the split. Market participants will be closely watching price movements as the stock adjusts to the revised share structure.
What is a Stock Split?
A stock split means a company divides its existing shares into a larger number of shares. This does not change the total value of an investor’s holding, but increases the number of shares they own while reducing the price of each share.
For example, if you own 1 share worth Rs. 1,000 and the company announces a 1:5 stock split, you will then have 5 shares worth Rs. 200 each. Stock splits make shares more affordable and can improve liquidity in the market.
