CONCOR is once again contemplating the issuance of bonus shares, marking the 5 instance in its corporate history. The company has demonstrated a consistent commitment to rewarding its shareholders through periodic bonus issues over the years.
The most recent bonus was declared on February 4, 2019, at a ratio of 1:4—granting shareholders one bonus share for every four shares held. A similar bonus distribution occurred earlier on April 5, 2017, also at a 1:4 ratio. Going further back, on September 6, 2013, CONCOR announced a 1:2 bonus issue, and the earliest in this series was on April 16, 2008, with a generous 1:1 ratio, effectively doubling shareholders' holdings.
Container Corporation of India (CONCOR) reported a 1.6% decline in its fourth-quarter net profit on Thursday, primarily due to a dip in revenue from its domestic cargo operations. The state-owned rail logistics firm posted a consolidated net profit of ₹2.99 billion (approximately $34.78 million) for the quarter ended March 31, down from ₹3.03 billion in the same period last year.
