BSE stock “crashed” by 65% today.

That’s what the numbers showed. But it was a planned move, with a bonus issue.

Here’s the full story. And why it actually matters for investors. 🧵

Let’s start with the basics. Imagine you own 1 pizza. It’s worth ₹3,000.

Today, someone gives you 2 extra pizzas, free. Now you have 3 pizzas.

But here's the twist, each is now worth ₹1,000. Same total value. Just more slices.

👉 That’s what happened with BSE. BSE issued a 2:1 bonus.

This means, for every 1 share you held. You got 2 additional shares, free

Your share count triples, but the price adjusts.

The total value is the same. You just have more units.

Before the bonus, BSE was trading around ₹7,015

👉 After the 2:1 bonus, the price adjusted to ₹2,335 on the NSE, a third of the original.

Despite this adjustment, the stock rose 2.3% intraday to ₹2,389.

To get these bonus shares, you had to own BSE stock by May 22.

That’s due to the T+1 settlement rule: Buy on May 22, shares are in your demat by May 23.

👉 The new bonus shares start trading from Tuesday, May 27.

So why do companies issue bonus shares?

👉 Think of it like this: You have a ₹2,000 note.

Would more people be able to trade it if you split it into 4 notes of ₹500? Yes, of course.

Bonus shares

• Make stocks feel more affordable
• Improve liquidity
• Signal confidence from the company

👉 Fun fact: This is only the second time in history that BSE has done a bonus issue.

Despite the technical adjustment in share price, BSE reported its strongest financial performance to date in FY25:

• Total Revenue: ₹3,236 crore, marking 2x increase from ₹1,596 crore in FY24

• Net Profit: ₹1,317 crore, up 71.3% from ₹769 crore in the previous fiscal year

This growth was driven by increased trading volumes and higher transaction revenues across various segments.

BSE's equity derivatives segment witnessed significant growth 👇

• Contracts Traded: 30.5 billion in FY25.
• Revenue: ₹1,415 crore from equity derivative

BSE's market share in index options increased from 16% in December 2024 to 23.6% in Apr'25.

In Jan'25, BSE moved its index options expiry to Tuesday, while NSE retained Thursday.

This strategic scheduling allowed BSE to capture a larger share of the derivatives market.

👉 The apparent 65% drop in BSE's stock price is a technical adjustment due to a bonus issue, not a reflection of business performance.

Investors should view the bonus issue as an opportunity for increased liquidity and potential long-term gains.

📌 The US House just passed a new bill called The One Big, Beautiful Bill (H.R. 1).

It includes a new provision: a 3.5% tax on money transfers abroad by non-US citizens.

But what does this mean for Indians investing in US stocks? 👇

First: No, this does not affect Indian residents investing in US stocks from India.

This 3.5% tax targets remittances (sending money to family/friends) and not investment withdrawals.

👉 What is “The One Big, Beautiful Bill”?

It’s a sweeping 1,100+ page tax reform package reflecting Donald Trump’s economic vision.

This includes tax cuts, spending shifts, and this new tax on outward remittances by non-citizens.

👉 The new rule

A 3.5% tax will be collected by banks/remittance services when non-US citizens send money abroad.

Even H-1B visa holders and green card holders are included.

US citizens/nationals are exempt (if verified via official channels).

If you're an Indian resident that sells US stocks and transfers funds from a US brokerage to an Indian bank.

✅ This is considered investment repatriation
❌ Not subject to the 3.5% excise tax

What’s next?

The bill has passed the US House, but it’s not law yet. It must still go to the Senate, and then be signed by the President.

Only then will it come into effect
