Websol Energy Makes Shares Affordable! 1:10 Stock Split To Attract More Retail Investors; What Should You Do?

During the Board meeting on September 1, 2025, the stock split in the ratio of 1:10 has been approved by the Board of Directors of Websol Energy System Limited (BSE: 517498, NSE: WEBELSOLAR), subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting scheduled for September 29, 2025.

The company has made the decision to split its equity shares in a 1:10 ratio, lowering the face value of each share from Rs 10 to Rs 1. This stock split's main goal is to increase stock affordability and accessibility for the general public. Following the split, the authorized, paid-up, and subscribed capital will stay at Rs 60 crore, Rs 42.20 crore, and Rs 42.20 crore, respectively, but the number of equity shares will rise dramatically from 4,22,06,347 shares to 42,20,63,470 shares. Subject to shareholder approval at the 35th Annual General Meeting on September 29, 2025, the company anticipates finishing the stock split procedure by October 2025.

In addition to the above corporate action, a phased expansion plan to increase its production capacity by a total of 4 GW of solar cells and 4 GW of solar modules through a fully owned subsidiary was also authorized by Websol Energy System Limited on Monday. A total of about Rs. 3,000 crores would be invested in this development plan.

The company's current capacity (Phase I) of a 600 MW solar cell line and a 550 MW solar module plant in Falta, West Bengal, is expanded under the capacity extension plan. 90% of the solar cell line's effective capacity is being used. In October 2025, a second 600 MW solar cell line (Phase Il), which is also located in Falta, is expected to start up. This line, which has been fully financed by internal accruals, will increase Websol's overall capacity to manufacture solar cells to 1.2 GW.

Commenting on the expansion plan, Mr. Sohan Lal Agarwal, Managing Director, Websol Energy System, said: "Websol has always focused on staying ahead of the curve and this capacity expansion marks a major milestone in our growth journey. From being one of India's earliest solar cell and module manufacturers, we are now moving into a multi-gigawatt phase of expansion, reflecting our commitment to advanced technologies and an integrated cell and module value chain. With Phases III and IV, our solar cell and module capacities will reach 5.2 GW and 4.5 GW by 2028, playing an important role in achieving India's goal of 280 GW of solar power by 2030. This expansion strengthens our market position in clean energy adoption and our ability to deliver high-efficiency solar-based products. Our integrated facilities with advanced technology represent the future of solar manufacturing in India. As we move forward, we will continue to focus on making solar power more accessible and driving sustainable growth at Websol."
