Julien Agro Infratech Ltd, a Kolkata-based infrastructure and agro-development company, has officially announced the issuance of bonus equity shares in a 1:1 ratio, marking a significant move to reward shareholders and enhance liquidity. The decision was approved during the company’s board meeting held on August 18, 2025, and reflects its confidence in long-term growth and shareholder value creation.
This corporate action means that shareholders will receive one additional equity share for every share they currently hold, effectively doubling their holdings without any additional investment. The bonus issue comes on the heels of Julien Agro’s recent interim dividend declaration and strong quarterly performance, signaling robust financial health and strategic momentum.
Key Highlights from the Announcement
- Julien Agro Infratech Ltd will issue bonus equity shares in a 1:1 ratio

The company declared its first interim dividend of Rs 0.02 per equity share for FY 2025–26, with July 25, 2025, set as the record date. This dividend declaration, coupled with the bonus issue, indicates a shareholder-friendly approach and a commitment to distributing value.
- Interim dividend declared on July 21, 2025
- Record date for dividend entitlement was July 25, 2025
- Un-audited financial results for Q1 FY 2025–26 showed stable margins and revenue
Regulatory Compliance and Market Impact

The trading window for insiders remains closed from August 5, 2025, until 48 hours after the announcement, ensuring transparency and governance.
Market analysts expect the bonus issue to positively impact Julien Agro’s share price in the short term, driven by increased investor interest and improved liquidity. The announcement has already sparked a rally in the stock, with notable gains reported in early August.
Looking Ahead
