Investors have until today, September 19, to buy shares of Mukul Agrawal-backed Taal Tech to qualify for a 1:5 stock split. The engineering services company has fixed September 22 as the record date for the split. Under Sebi's T+1 settlement norm, shares must be bought at least one trading day before the record date.

A 1:5 stock split means each existing share will be divided into five, lowering the face value without changing the total holding value. Taal Tech shares have rallied 107% from a 52-week low of Rs 2,616 in May, closing at Rs 5,416 on Friday. The stock is up 81% in 2026 and 29% in the past month.
Mukul Agrawal held about a 9% stake in Taal Tech, worth over Rs 151 crore, as of the April-June quarter of FY27. The ace investor's total public portfolio across 72 stocks is valued at nearly Rs 8,083 crore.
A stock split does not change a company's valuation or the value of an investor's holding. Companies split shares mainly to lower the per-share price, making them affordable to more retail buyers. For Taal Tech, a 1:5 split means each Rs 100 share becomes five shares of Rs 20 each. The Securities and Exchange Board of India's T+1 settlement cycle requires buyers to own the stock one day before the record date for corporate actions to be effective. The record date of September 22, 2025 was set by the company's board. Investors who miss this cutoff will not receive the split shares.
