✅ Investor Checklist
Hold status before June 16 if you want to claim both benefits.
Expect no immediate value change—per-share price will adjust proportionately.
Watch price movements ahead of the ex-date, which often include pre-split upside.
Track your holdings post-adjustment—total count will multiply, so per-share price will correspondingly drop.
Evaluate your overall exposure—though split and bonus don’t change total value, investment size might shift your allocation needs.

Bajaj Finance is rewarding shareholders with a rare combination of a stock split and a hefty 4:1 bonus issue—the first such move in nine years. If you already own shares, be sure you’re holding them by June 16, 2025, to capitalize on this move. Adjusted holdings should hit your demat account soon after the record date—with market analysts forecasting continued upward momentum.
