Nestlé India Share Price in Focus on June 26; Approves 1:1 Bonus Share Issue

Nestlé India Limited has informed the stock exchanges that its Board of Directors, at a meeting held on June 26, 2025, has approved key proposals, including a bonus issue of equity shares and an increase in authorised share capital.

These decisions are subject to shareholders’ approval and will be formalised through an upcoming Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM).

1:1 Bonus Share Issue Approved

The Board has approved the issuance of bonus equity shares in the ratio of 1:1, meaning shareholders will receive one bonus share of face value ₹1 for every one fully paid-up equity share they hold. The bonus issue will be made by capitalising up to ₹96.42 crore from the retained earnings of the company. This move is aimed at rewarding shareholders and enhancing liquidity in the stock.

The record date for determining the eligible shareholders for the bonus shares will be announced in due course.

Capital Clause Alteration and Authorised Capital Increase

In line with the bonus share issue, Nestlé India has also proposed an amendment to the Capital Clause (Clause 5) of its Memorandum of Association. The Board has approved an increase in authorised share capital from ₹100 crore to ₹200 crore, subject to the approval of shareholders. This enhancement will provide the company with the flexibility to accommodate the bonus issuance and future capital requirements.

EGM Scheduled for Shareholder Approval

To formalise the bonus issue and capital clause amendment, the company will convene an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on Thursday, July 24, 2025. Shareholders will be asked to vote on both the bonus share issuance and the increase in authorised capital.
