Curious Trader: How Many Shares Will I Get from Today's IPO?

Ans: Hello;

At the time of merger(Mar-2009) the swap ratio was 16:1.

So for every 16 shares of Reliance petroleum you may expect 1 share of RIL.

Therefore 6 RIL shares as on March 2009.(fractional amount will be paid in cash by RIL)

Considering 3, 1:1 bonus share by RIL thereafter leads to around 48 RIL shares as on today.

Ans: Hello;

During merger of icici with its bank swap ratio was 2:1. So 60 shares of ICICI Bank in 2001.

Later face value of its share was split from ?10 to ?2 so 60x5=300 shares in 2014.

In 2017 icici bank issued bonus shares at 1:10 therefore 30 more shares so total 330 shares of ICICI Bank as on today.

Best wishes;

Ans: Your 100 shares of Jindal Vijaynagar Steels Ltd. (issued in 1995) have undergone significant changes due to mergers and corporate actions over the years. Here's a breakdown:

- Merger with JSW Steel: Jindal Vijaynagar Steels Ltd. merged with Jindal South West (JSW) to form JSW Steel Ltd. The conversion ratio during the merger was 1:16, meaning for every 1 share of Jindal Vijaynagar Steels Ltd., you received 16 shares of JSW Steel Ltd.. So, your 100 shares became 1,600 shares of JSW Steel.
- Stock Split in 2017: JSW Steel underwent a stock split in the ratio of 1:10. This means your 1,600 shares were further split into 16,000 shares.

As of today, 27 April 2025, you would hold 16,000 shares of JSW Steel Ltd., assuming no other corporate actions (like buybacks or additional splits) have occurred since then.
