Existing shareholders receiving additional shares in a specific ratio is known as a bonus issue. If a 4:1 bonus issue is announced, for instance, shareholders will receive four shares for every share they currently own. Therefore, if an investor owns 10 shares of a particular company, they will receive 40 shares in total (4 * 10).

According to the bonus number of shares issued in the bonus issue, the stock price will be adjusted. Consider a scenario where a business announced a 4:1 bonus issue. Shares are priced at Rs.100 each before bonuses. If there are 100 shares, then:
(100*100)/400 = Rs 25 for the stock price following the bonus issue.
