BEML Share Price Appears Down 50% As Stock Trades Ex-Split After Face Value Revision

Bengaluru, 3 November 2025 – BEML Limited (NSE: BEML | BSE: 500048) opened much lower in the early session as the stock had turned ex-split after its face value was revised from ₹10 to ₹5 per share. The stock appears to have dropped 50%, trading around ₹2181.90, down from the previous Close of ₹4,391.00 on 31 October 2025.

The fall is purely technical, as the subdivision will double the number of outstanding shares without affecting the company’s market capitalisation.

What Triggered the Move

The stock split from a face value of ₹10 to ₹5 took place on November 3, 2025. It will effectively double the number of shares and halve the market price per share. A corporate action was undertaken to improve liquidity, promote retail participation, and increase trading volume on the counter.

Previous Day Recap

BEML closed 1.01% down at ₹4,391.00, down from ₹4,435.70 in the previous session on October 31, 2025, which was the day before the stock split at a face value of ₹10 each. The stock opened at ₹4,453.70, reached a high of ₹4,505.00, and a low of ₹4,382.90, with a VWAP of ₹4,440.52.

Price Performance Overview

Over the past five years, the stock shot up more than 1,600%. Big government contracts, a surge in defence production, and all those new metro projects pushed things along. Even in the short term, it’s been impressive, up 98% in just a week and over 110% this month. This steady climb shows BEML has a strong order book, better margins, and a solid foothold in both infrastructure and defence.
