What is Face value?
Also called: Par value
Hinglish mein padhein: Face value kya hoti hai?
Face value is the nominal value of a share printed in the company's books, often ₹1, ₹2, ₹5 or ₹10. It is unrelated to the market price.
Dividends are often declared as a percentage of face value, so a 100% dividend on a ₹2 face-value share is ₹2 per share.
Stock splits reduce the face value.
