     As the scrip was divided into shares with lower face value, Canara Bank Ltd's share price increased by 5 per cent during Wednesday's trade. The fully paid up shares of Canara Bank, having face value of Rs 10 each, have been sub-divided into five fully paid up shares of Canara Bank with face value of Rs 2 each.They have thus turned ex-date for the corporate action. 

 

Adjusting for the split, the stock stood at Rs 118.40 on BSE, up 4.54 per cent. Canara Bank shares have become more affordable for retail investors to buy, which is seen as boosting liquidity on the counter.

It is also seen broadening the retail investors base. The bank has a 6 per cent stake owned by 7,39,996 retail investors who have up to Rs 2 lakh shares.

Rekha Rakesh Jhunjhuwala (1.45% stake) and 337 other high-net-worth individuals together owned a combined 4.65 percent stake in the PSU lender as of March 31.

The bank's shares have increased to 907,06,51,260 from 181,41,30,252 previously. Stocks that are already owned are divided into stocks with lower face values during a stock split.

The impact on share capital is negligible because it is not similar to bonus shares, where additional shares are given to existing shareholders based on the number of shares owned.

The announcement of bonus shares is different from a stock split in that it distributes gains from accumulated earnings without paying cash to shareholders. As new shares are issued, they reduce reserves and transfer money to share capital.

With the bank consistently maintaining stable net interest margin, ongoing moderation in credit costs and sustained return on asset of 1 per cent for several quarters, JM Financial expects Canara Bank's rerating to continue going ahead.
