1:5 Stock Split: This FMCG Stock to Turn Ex-Date Tomorrow, DEC 12: Are You on the Shareholder List?

Today was the last day for investors to benefit from the Mrs Bectors Food Specialities stock split. The company will determine eligible shareholders on December 12, which has been fixed as the record date for its 1:5 stock split, making December 11 the final day to buy shares and receive split-adjusted holdings. The stock will begin trading ex-split from Friday.

As per the T+1 settlement cycle, shares bought today will be reflected in the buyer's demat account by the next trading day, allowing them to qualify for the record date. Any transaction made on or after the ex-date of December 12 will not offer eligibility for the stock split.

The FMCG company had earlier approved the subdivision of its equity shares, reducing the face value from Rs. 10 to Rs. 2 each. After this change, every single share will be split into five shares, increasing the overall number of shares in circulation. Although the number of shares held will increase, the overall value of the holding remains largely the same, as the stock price will adjust proportionately post-split.
