A stock split is typically undertaken by companies to enhance stock liquidity and accessibility by reducing the face value per share and increasing the number of outstanding shares. For Paras Defence, this is its first-ever split, aimed at making its stock more affordable and appealing to retail investors.


💬 Management Commentary

In a previous interview with CNBC-TV18, Amit Mahajan, senior executive at Paras Defence, noted the company’s exposure to Israel is primarily in the form of technology transfers, not large-scale exports. He clarified that the Israel-based supply chain accounts for only 5% of its export-related activity and does not foresee any major disruptions despite geopolitical tensions.
