Hindusthan Insulators Announces 1:5 Stock Split with Record Date Revised to 13 March 2026

Hindusthan Insulators & Industries Limited, earlier called Hindusthan Urban Infrastructure, updated the record date for its 1:5 stock split. The change was shared through a filing on BSE. The revision matters for investors tracking corporate actions. Traders also often watch such updates, as record dates decide who qualifies for the share subdivision.

Investors awaiting the split needed to note the fresh eligibility cut-off. The company said the earlier date was moved to match timelines linked to the company name change. It also cited pending approvals from stock market and depository systems. Shares could stay in focus as the market digested the revised schedule.

"We had intimated 27th February, 2026 as the 'Record Date' for the purpose of determining the members, eligible for the sub-division/split of the existing equity shares of the Company. In this regard, we wish to inform you that the Board of Directors vide resolution passed through circulation dated 19th February, 2026 has revised the Record date to Friday, 13th March, 2026, in order to align the same with the timelines for change of name of the Company and receipt of necessary approvals from the Stock Exchange and the Depositories," confirmed Hindusthan Insulators & Industries in a regulatory statement.

The board approved a share split in the 1:5 ratio. One equity share with a face value of Rs 10 will become five shares. Each new share will have a face value of Rs 2. The company said the aim was higher liquidity in the capital market. A lower face value can also improve affordability.

The company expected wider participation from small and retail investors after the split. A larger number of shares in circulation may increase trading activity. While the number of shares rises, the overall paid-up capital value stays unchanged. This is because the split changes the face value and count, not the total amount invested.

The filing also gave changes to authorised, subscribed, and paid-up equity share capital after the split. The figures were stated in share counts and face values. The updated structure is shown below.

Item	Before sub-division	After sub-division
Authorised equity share capital	25,00,000 shares of Rs 10 each	5,50,00,000 shares of Rs 2 each
Subscribed share capital	14,43,000 shares of Rs 10 each	72,15,000 shares of Rs 2 each
Paid-up equity share capital	14,42,885 shares of Rs 10 each	72,14,425 shares of Rs 2 each

Separately, a technical view cited key levels for the stock. "Hindusthan Urban Infrastructure stock price is bearish on the Daily charts with strong resistance at 2510. A Daily close below support of 2179 could lead to a target of 1820 in the near term," commented A R Ramachandran, part-time SEBI-registered Research Analyst, Tips2trades.
