1:1 Bonus Issue, 1:5 Stock Split: Multibagger Small-cap Stock Rallies 4%

Shares of Silver Touch Technologies Ltd rallied as much as 4.1% on Friday, January 16, after the company announced a bonus issue along with a stock split, triggering strong buying interest in the counter.

Corporate actions

The company's board has approved a bonus issue in the ratio of 1:1, meaning shareholders will receive one additional equity share for every share held. The board has also approved a stock split in the ratio of 1:5. Under the proposal, one equity share with a face value of Rs.10 will be split into five equity shares of Rs.2 each.

This marks the first time Silver Touch Technologies has announced both a bonus issue and a stock split for its shareholders. The company said the record date for both corporate actions will be announced at a later stage.

Strong rally continues

The stock has been on a sharp upward trajectory, gaining 80% over the past 14 trading sessions. During this period, Silver Touch Technologies secured a mandate from the Indian armed forces, a development that supported positive sentiment around the stock.

The recent rally has also lifted the company's market capitalisation beyond Rs.2,000 crore, underlining increased investor interest in the IT services firm.

On Friday, shares were trading around Rs.1,591, up about 4% following the announcement. Over the past 12 months, the stock has delivered returns of 140%. The stock is currently placed under Stage 1 of the long-term Additional Surveillance Measure framework.
