Zydus Wellness Limited has announced a stock split to make its shares more affordable and enhance market participation. The company has fixed Thursday, September 18, 2025, as the record date to determine shareholder eligibility for the subdivision.
The approved corporate action involves splitting each equity share of face value ₹10 into five equity shares of ₹2 each, fully paid-up. This move was approved by the members at the company’s 31st Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on July 30, 2025.
After the split, the number of outstanding shares will increase fivefold, while the overall capital structure remains unchanged.
A stock split does not change the overall value of an investor’s holding but increases the number of shares owned. For example, if a shareholder holds 100 shares of Zydus Wellness with a face value of ₹10 each, after the 1:5 split, they will hold 500 shares with a face value of ₹2 each.
The total investment value remains the same, but the lower price per share generally makes the stock more attractive to retail investors and enhances liquidity in the market.
On September 16, 2025, Zydus Wellness share price (NSE: ZYDUSWELL) opened at ₹2,550.00 and closed at ₹2,603.50, up by 2.27%. The stock price touched its day’s high at ₹2,625.00.

The upcoming stock split is expected to improve trading volumes and investor participation, aligning with Zydus Wellness’ strategy to enhance shareholder value.
