Why did Orient Technologies share price rise today?

 

Orient Technologies share price rose as the company set January 5, 2026, as the record date to determine the eligibility for bonus share issuance. On Monday, Orient Technologies received approval from the shareholders to issue bonus shares.

 

Orient Technologies said it will issue bonus shares in a ratio of 1:10. This means shareholders will get one equity share with a face value of ₹10 against every 10 equity shares with a face value of ₹10, the company said in an exchange filing.

 

The company will allot the shares to eligible shareholders on January 6, 2026. The bonus shares will be available to trade on the exchanges the next working day, and will rank equally on the exchanges along with the existing shares, according to the exchange filing.

 

Orient Technologies will implement the bonus shares issuance through the capitalisation of ₹4.16 crore from the Securities Premium Account, according to an exchange filing. 

 

Usually, bonus share issuance triggers an upward momentum in share price, as more supply will increase the share capital of the existing shareholders. More supply also makes the shares affordable to interested shareholders. 

 

"By enhancing equity liquidity and broadening retail participation, the bonus issue also aligns with the company’s objective of creating long-term, inclusive value for its shareholder base,” the company said in the exchange filing.

 

Issuance of bonus share, typically, indicates the management's confidence in the company's future earnings and financial position. 

 

Orient Technologies also said that the bonus share issuance is not merely a capital action but a reflection of the company’s strong balance sheet, consistent performance, and a prudent capital management approach. 

 

Market participants await the earnings for the third quarter, likely to be released later this week.
