Shares of Kotak Mahindra Bank are in focus as the board convenes to consider a stock split today. The current face value of each share is ₹5. The company has previously undertaken a split, reducing the face value from ₹10 to ₹5 in 2010, and issued bonus shares in 2015 at a 1:1 ratio. As of now, the record date for the proposed split has not been announced, leaving investors awaiting further details from the lender. Stock splits are often carried out to increase liquidity and make shares more affordable to a wider pool of investors.
The decision on the stock split comes as the bank maintains a track record of rewarding shareholders both through splits and regular dividends. The face value of ₹5 remains unchanged until the board finalises the new terms. Investors and analysts are watching closely for the upcoming record date, which will determine eligibility for the split. The move is expected to enhance liquidity once implemented, continuing the bank’s history of shareholder engagement.
