Investors have just today to buy shares of Kesar Enterprises and Zydus Wellness to become eligible for their upcoming stock splits, with Thursday, September 18, 2025, being the record date fixed for determining shareholder eligibility.

The data has been sourced from StockEdge and shows that Kesar Enterprises Ltd. will split its shares from Rs 10 to Rs 1, while Zydus Wellness Ltd. will split its shares from Rs 10 to Rs 2. These corporate actions will increase the number of outstanding shares proportionately while reducing the face value per share.

Under India’s T+1 settlement cycle, investors must ensure they purchase these shares today, September 17, so that their trades are settled, and their names reflected in the company’s register of members by the record date.


Only shareholders who hold the shares as of the end of the record date will be eligible to receive the split shares in their demat accounts once the action is executed.

How the split will work

Kesar Enterprises (Rs 10 to Rs 1): Every share of face value Rs 10 will be split into 10 shares of face value Rs 1.

Example: If a shareholder currently owns 100 shares, they will hold 1,000 shares post-split, with the price per share adjusting proportionately.

Zydus Wellness (Rs 10 to Rs 2): Every share of face value Rs 10 will be split into 5 shares of face value Rs 2.

Example: If a shareholder currently owns 100 shares, they will hold 500 shares post-split, with the price per share adjusting proportionately.

Stock splits are a key corporate action that result in a proportional increase in the number of shares held by investors. The overall market capitalization of the company and the value of individual holdings remain unchanged, but the reduced face value and lower price per share make the stock more affordable and improve market liquidity.
