❓ FAQ Section
Q1: What’s the difference between a bonus issue and a stock split?
A: A bonus issue gives extra shares from reserves; a stock split divides existing shares into smaller units without changing the total value.
Q2: How can I check if I’m eligible for a dividend or bonus share?
A: You must own the stock on or before the record date; ensure you purchase it before the ex-date.
Q3: Are these corporate actions taxable?
A: Dividends are taxable in the hands of investors. Bonus and split shares aren't taxed immediately but may impact capital gains when sold.
Q4: Do stock splits increase my total wealth?
A: No. They increase the number of shares but not the total investment value. However, they may improve liquidity and attract more buyers.
Q5: How can I stay updated about upcoming corporate actions?
A: Check official announcements on NSE, BSE websites, or use platforms like Moneycontrol, Screener.in, or your broker’s dashboard.
