How Investors Benefit from Bonus Shares
In a bonus issue, a company gives free additional shares to its existing shareholders. Investors do not need to pay anything extra for these shares.
However, to receive the bonus, investors must hold the company’s shares in their demat account on or before the record date. If someone buys shares after the ex-date, they will not be eligible for the bonus.
For Riddhi Steel & Tube Limited, both the ex-date and record date are on February 17, 2026.

Important Advice for Investors
Market experts suggest that investors should carefully plan their investments according to these dates.
Although bonus issues increase the total number of shares held by investors, they do not immediately change the overall value of the company. Therefore, it is important to fully understand all details before making any investment decision.
