IRB Infrastructure Board Has Approved A Stock Split
On Wednesday, the board of IRB Infrastructure Developers approved the split of existing equity shares with a face value of Rs 10 per share into ten shares with a face value of Rs 1 per share. The company’s chairman and managing director, Virendra Mhaiskar, decided the stock split as it reached 25 years of incorporation and 15 years as a listed company.
As a responsible corporation, the company has made significant progress over the past 25 years, building toll road assets worth more than Rs 60,000 crore across the group and significantly increasing shareholder wealth. We believed it was necessary to implement the stock split to have significant participation from this segment of investors to further reward and accommodate small shareholders in the value-accretive journey of the company, the company said.
IRB said in a release that the company will now seek shareholder approval and regulatory approval to put the share split into effect for trading on the stock exchanges.
