A stock split is a corporate action where a company increases the number of outstanding shares by reducing the face value of each share. Companies generally implement stock splits to improve liquidity and make shares more affordable for investors.
Although the share price decreases after a split, the total investment value remains the same. The newly split shares are usually credited to the investor’s Demat Account within 2 days.
If a stock with a face value of ₹10 undergoes a 2:1 stock split, its face value reduces from ₹10 to ₹5. This doubles the number of shares an investor owns, but the total investment value remains unchanged.

In all cases, while the number of shares increases, the price per share decreases proportionally, ensuring that the total investment value remains unchanged.
