Bajaj Finance bonus, split issue: How F&O contracts will get adjusted
Bajaj Finance
will undergo a stock split and bonus issue, and as a result, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) will adjust its Futures and Options (F&O) contracts starting June 16, 2025, which is the ex-date for the corporate action.
The company is issuing four bonus shares for every one share held and simultaneously splitting each equity share with a face value of Rs 2 into two equity shares. This means for every one share held, investors will receive four bonus shares, and each share will be split into two, resulting in ten shares in total.
Together, this means that for every 1 existing share, a shareholder will end up with 10 shares (2 shares from the split × 5 shares after the bonus).
So, how will this work for the F&O contracts?
NSE, according to its recent circular, has taken an adjustment factor of 10. An adjustment factor is used to ensure that the value of a futures or options contract stays the same after a corporate action like a bonus or stock split.
In the case of Bajaj Finance, the stock split turns 1 share into 2 shares, implying an adjustment factor equal to 2. Further, the bonus issue gives 4 extra shares for every 1 share (total 5 shares), which implies an adjustment factor of 5.

Therefore, the final combined adjustment factor is calculated as 2 × 5 = 10.
Adjustment in Futures contracts
The price of each futures contract will be divided by 10 to reflect the adjustment.
For example, if a futures contract is priced at Rs 9,600 before the ex-date, it will be revised to Rs 960 after adjustment.
For the lot size adjustment, the number of shares per futures lot will be multiplied by 10. Therefore, if the lot size was 125 shares earlier, it will become 1,250 shares after June 16.

With this, the contracts expiring in June 2025 will have a revised lot size of 1,250 shares. Contracts expiring in July 2025 and later will have a revised lot size of 750 shares, as previously notified by the NSE in March 2025.
Adjustment in Options Contracts
All option strike prices will be divided by 10.
For example, the Rs 9,600 strike price will now be adjusted to Rs 960. Additionally, just like in futures, the options lot size will be multiplied by 10, wherein a lot of 125 shares will become 1,250 shares after the adjustment.
These changes make sure that the overall value of the contract remains unchanged.
Investors holding existing futures and options contracts will neither gain nor lose value because of the bonus and split.

CM-YUVA campaign: Govt launches drive to aid college students, unemployed youths start own ventures
The state government has launched a campaign across all 75 districts as part of which special teams of officials will visit universities, engineering colleges and other higher education institutions to identify students in their final year, as well as those who remain unemployed despite completing their studies. Once identified, eligible youth will be offered interest-free, collateral-free loans of up to Rs 5 lakh to help them start their own ventures and become job creators. The campaign is being run under Mukhyamantri Yuva Udyami Vikas Abhiyan (CM-YUVA). According to Sarveshwar Shukla, Joint Commissioner of Industries and nodal officer of the scheme, the primary goal of the Yogi Adityanath-led government is to empower every eligible, educated and progressive-thinking youth by helping them launch their businesses. The vision is to transition youth from 'seeking jobs' to 'creating jobs.' Along with financial support, technical guidance will also be provided to ensure the success of these entrepreneurial initiatives. To ensure effective implementation, specialised training is being provided to officials. A two-day capacity-building workshop was recently organised in Lucknow, focusing on improving the rollout of the scheme and enhancing the functionality of the CM Yuva Portal. These trained officials will soon begin visiting campuses to implement the scheme at the grassroots level. According to the government, more than 2.5 lakh youths have applied for loans under the initiative. Of these, more than 1.10 lakh applications have been forwarded to banks, and loans have been sanctioned to over 53,000 applicants, with 40,000 already receiving funds. Young entrepreneurs have started utilising these interest-free loans to launch ventures in sectors — from cake manufacturing and digital marketing to launch ventures in sectors — from cake manufacturing and digital marketing to interior design, laundry services, solar panel installation, tattoo studios and mineral water plants.

Court Awards Rs 27 Lakh Compensation To Man Injured In 2019 Road Accident
New Delhi: A motor accident claims tribunal awarded Rs 27 lakh as compensation to a man injured in a 2019 road accident. The man, Prahalad Rai, was riding his two-wheeler from Kalindi Kunj to Madanpur Khadar when a rashly driven truck rammed his vehicle on July 9, 2019. The tribunal computed the total compensation under various pecuniary and non-pecuniary losses. It directed the insurer, United India Insurance Company Limited, to pay the entire compensation along with interest. Presiding officer Shelly Arora stated that the psychological and emotional consequences of the injury diminished Rai's capacity to adapt to alternative employment or social settings, thus compounding the overall effect on his earning ability. "Given the substantial impact on his ability to undertake field-oriented work, his functional disability is assessed as 50%concerning his earning capacity," the court, in an order dated June 4, said. The tribunal stated that it was established that the accident occurred "on account of the speedy and rash driving" by the truck driver. The court further said that according to the precedents of the Supreme Court and high courts, medically determined permanent disability cannot be equated with loss of earning capacity due to functional disability, as it would result in non-objective and absurd compensation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025: Steel Suppliers From Mexico At Lowest Prices (Take A Look) Steel Suppliers | search ads Search Now Undo "There, however, might be certain cases where the two would correspond to each other, but it cannot be mechanically applied; rather, it requires evaluation of applicable factors independently in each case to reach a fair quantification of loss of earning capacity," it added. The court noted that the claimant, who was employed as a delivery boy, endured substantial disability, including deformity in the left lower limb. "This impairment significantly restricts mobility, a critical requirement for his prior employment, which heavily relied on driving and physical activity. The nature of his injury directly impacts his ability to perform essential job functions, particularly those involving extensive fieldwork and continuous driving, which are indispensable for a delivery boy," it stated.
