Jonjua Overseas Limited approves 5:40 bonus issue funded from internal reserves; record date 23 January 2026

Jonjua Overseas Limited has cleared a bonus share issue that increases equity without fresh investor cash. Shareholders will receive bonus equity in a 5:40 ratio, and the company has set 23 January 2026 as the record date to decide eligible investors for this corporate action.

Listed on the BSE SME platform, Jonjua Overseas Limited operates across several segments, including service exports, corporate consultancy, farm seeds and produce, and printed and electronic books. The Board of Directors approved the bonus shares on 18 December 2025 and expects to complete the process by 18 February 2026.

The 5:40 bonus issue means an investor holding forty shares will get five extra fully paid shares. Each new equity share carries a face value of Rs 10. The paid-up share capital is expected to rise from Rs 24,24,67,530 before the issue to Rs 27,27,75,970 after allotment, reflecting the enlarged equity base.

To fund the Jonjua Overseas bonus issue, the company plans to draw on internal reserves rather than new funds. Free reserves of Rs 3,03,08,440 will be capitalised from accumulated reserves and surplus. The company will issue 30,30,844 additional equity shares, backed by total free reserves of Rs 514.70 lakh, including retained earnings of Rs 456.64 lakh and securities premium of Rs 58.06 lakh.
