Organic Recycling Sets August 20 Record Date for Bonus Issue

MUMBAI — Organic Recycling Systems Limited (BSE: 543997) announced on Sunday, August 9, 2026, that its Bonus Allotment Committee has fixed Thursday, August 20, 2026, as the record date to determine shareholder eligibility for its upcoming bonus share distribution. Under the approved capitalisation plan, eligible equity holders will receive 1 new fully paid-up bonus equity share of ₹10 face value for every 2 existing equity shares held. The new bonus equity shares are scheduled to begin trading on the BSE exchange on Monday, August 24, 2026.

Shareholders Approve Capitalisation of Reserves

The corporate action follows formal shareholder approval granted during the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on August 3, 2026, and subsequent in-principle regulatory approval from BSE Limited under SEBI Listing Regulations on August 4, 2026.

Under the approved ratio, the Mumbai-based environmental engineering firm will issue 51,99,637 new equity shares amounting to a total capitalisation of ₹5,19,96,370 from eligible company reserves. Following the allotment on August 21, 2026, the company’s total paid-up equity share capital will increase from ₹10.39 crore (1,03,99,275 equity shares) to ₹15.59 crore (1,55,98,912 equity shares).

Management confirmed that corporate documentation will be submitted to national depositories by 12:00 p.m. on Friday, August 21, 2026, ensuring direct electronic credit to demat accounts prior to the trading debut.

Corporate Growth Strategy and Market Expansion

Founded in 2008 and listed on the BSE SME platform in 2023, Organic Recycling Systems Limited operates as an integrated CleanTech and decarbonisation platform focused on transforming municipal organic waste into sustainable energy, bio-CNG, and green chemicals.

The corporate action coincides with expanding commercial operations, including an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) project pipeline valued between ₹500 crore and ₹600 crore across the compressed biogas (CBG) segment. The company recently secured a second consecutive Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contract renewal with Indian Oil Corporation and maintains a board-approved ₹1,000 crore Build-Own-Operate platform. The company has also announced plans to transition from the SME platform to the main board of BSE by October 2026.

Financial Impact and Market Implications

For existing retail and institutional investors, the 1:2 bonus share issue increases total share count without requiring additional cash outlay. While bonus share distributions lower nominal per-share market price proportionally on the ex-date (August 20), the enlarged share base enhances overall stock liquidity and market accessibility on the exchange.
