Tata Investment Corporation has announced a 1:10 stock split, converting each ₹10 share into ten shares of ₹1 each. While stock splits are typically seen as investor-friendly steps to increase liquidity and accessibility, this particular move carries deeper significance. It could be the one and only time such a split is possible for the company.

Why Can’t Tata Investment Corp Have Another Stock Split?

As per SEBI regulations, companies cannot issue shares at a price lower than their face value, except in specific cases like sweat equity. For listed companies, the minimum face value allowed is ₹1. That’s not just an arbitrary floor, but it is designed to:

  1. Prevent the creation of fractional shares, which are not tradable on Indian stock exchanges.
  2. Promote Investor protection, by avoiding confusion in share pricing and capital allocation.
  3. Ensure standardisation of accounting practices, since face value is a key benchmark in a company’s financial structure.

In Tata Investment’s case, since the face value has now reached ₹1, no further stock splits can take place as far as SEBI’s rule is in force. That puts a natural limit on such corporate actions going forward.

Conclusion

Tata Investment’s stock split isn’t just about affordability. It’s a rare look into how SEBI’s face value norms safeguard the market’s structure. With ₹1 now the base value, this split draws the line on such moves going forward, making it the first and final for Tata Investment Corporation.
