Since September 14, 2018, the market price of Monnet Ispat & Energy has zoomed 105% from Rs 22.30, as the stock listed on the BSE after the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code (IBC) proceedings.

As per resolution plan, the paid-up and subscribed equity share capital of the company held by the non-promoter shareholders was reduced on the proportionate basis to 33.06% of its original value without any payout, i.e., one equity share of the company of Rs 10 each was reduced to Rs 3.3 each.
