Ahead of the opening of the stock market next week, market watchers should be aware of ongoing corporate announcements covering stock splits. Vaxtex, Accuracy Shipping, Shreeji Translogistics, and KCD Industries are the four stocks that will turn stock split next week. When a firm announces a stock split, the number of its shares rises, and the price per share falls, but the market capitalization stays the same.
Companies typically announce stock splits to boost share liquidity for small investors. Investors must have shares of the firm in their demat accounts on the record date, which is the date that determines the shareholders to credit the corporate announcements such as stock split, bonus shares or dividend. The above-mentioned firms’ boards of directors have established a record date for stock split in the upcoming week’s sessions, and as a result, pursuant to the T+1 settlement process implemented by the Indian stock market, the stocks will also begin trading ex-split on that day.
