On Friday, Adani Power said its shareholders have given approval for a 1:5 stock split via a postal ballot. The voting began on August 6 and ended on September 4, 2025.
Each equity share of ₹10 will now be divided into 5 fully paid-up shares of ₹2 each. After the split, the total number of equity shares will rise from 2,480 crore to 12,400 crore, while the overall share capital will remain unchanged.
The company explained that this move aims to make shares more affordable, encouraging greater participation from retail and small investors. The record date for the split will be decided by the board or its committee.
