Synopsis:- Markets ended higher with Nifty near 25,700 as two small-cap stocks announced corporate actions next week. One declared a 1:10 bonus with a February 13, 2026, record date, while another approved a 2:1 bonus and 5:1 stock split effective February 14, 2026.
Companies usually announce bonus shares and stock splits to make their shares more affordable, widen investor participation, and improve liquidity in the market. A bonus rewards existing shareholders without costing them extra, while a split reduces the share price to attract more retail investors. Together, these moves signal management’s confidence in future growth.
