Hey All,
Earlier it was a dividend time - where I did receive dividend of close to Rs.1K+ for having invested in IDFCFIRST Bank. And now here I am reporting being eligible for receiving BONUS SHAREs at a ratio of 2:1 for staying invested in STOCK - Motherson Sumi & Samvardhana Motherson. So the first thing, how did I come to know about the bonus shared being issued for both the companies. Well as in our last Stock Market 101 series we talked about - CA [Corporate Actions] meaning - when its written IN front of a STOCK Ticker and because of CA being written in front of both these stocks that I #hodl I came to know that there is some news tied to these stocks. And hence after doing a bit of google search I could see articles explaining the details to Bonus shares and eliglbity. The best part is that - Samvardhana Motherson had Approved 1:2 Bonus Issue to Mark its 50th Anniversary too good isn't?
Motherson Sumi Wiring India Ltd. Bonus Share Details:

Now a final note here, as you can see from the above two images I had MSUMI 655 Shares and MOTHERSON 355 shares. Right now both are showing heft losses but that is not true because when you get a bonus share the price of the stock also drops to almost 50% or so. On the other side, I have not received the bonus shares in my Dmat account and once they are received the loss that it is currently showing will square off automatically because of shares being credited.

So what NeXt? I have no plans to exit and will continue to #hodl both these shares for a long period of time. During my research I had found out that both these shares have a good dividend history so its worth holding them. As example the above table demonstrates the dividend history for the past 5 years. Ok I guess this should be it for todays post on - "Stock Market 101:: BONUS SHAREs 2:1 - Motherson Sumi, Samvardhana Motherson - Did you INVEST?" Happy Investing & Enjoy the dividends and the Bonus shares... cheers
