Trent Ltd. has approved a bonus issue of 1:2, or one share for every two shares held in the company, according to an exchange filing issued on Wednesday.
The record date, which will determine the eligibility of shareholders for the bonus issue, will be "informed later" subject to approval of the shareholders, the filing added.
The Tata Group firm also announced a dividend of Rs 6 per share, but refrained from sharing the record date. The amount will be paid "on or after the third day from the conclusion of the 74th Annual General Meeting", subject to shareholders' approval, it added.
If the bonus issue is approved by the shareholders, then the dividend per share will "be proportionately reduced to reflect the increase in the number of equity shares post bonus", the filing clarified.
Meanwhile, Trent's board has also approved a rights issue of shares worth Rs 2,500 crore. The fundraise will be completed in one or more tranches, subject to requisite approvals, it said. "Timelines for the aforesaid capital raising would be evaluated and pursued in due course."
