Gopal Snacks Allots 18,400 Equity Shares & Grants 20,210 Options Under ESOP-2023
Gopal Snacks Limited allotted 18,400 equity shares and granted 20,210 stock options under its ESOP-2023 scheme on May 23, 2026. The allotment increases paid-up capital to ₹12.47 crore. Options are exercisable at ₹1 per share and vest fully after one year.
The allotment and grant of ESOPs are standard corporate actions. The number of shares involved is relatively small compared to the total outstanding shares, and the exercise price is nominal, suggesting a limited impact on the company's financial metrics or share price.
The announcement pertains to the routine allotment of shares and grant of options under an existing ESOP scheme, which is a standard corporate action and does not inherently indicate a positive or negative development for the company's financial performance.
Gopal Snacks Limited announced the allotment of 18,400 equity shares of face value ₹1 each, fully paid-up, to eligible employees under the Gopal Snacks Limited - Employees Stock Option Scheme - 2023 (GOPAL ESOP - 2023) upon the exercise of vested options. This allotment increases the company's paid-up share capital from ₹12,46,48,419 to ₹12,46,66,819, comprising 12,46,66,819 equity shares.
Additionally, the company has granted 20,210 stock options to eligible employees under the same ESOP scheme. These options will vest as per the scheme's schedule, with a ratio of 1 Option = 1 Equity Share. The exercise price for these options is ₹1 per option, and the shares allotted will rank pari-passu with existing equity shares and will not be subject to a lock-in period. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee (NRC) approved these actions on 23rd May 2026.
