Bonus shares are the shares alloted to existing equity
share holders without any cosideration being received from
them, in cash or kind. They are issued to capitalise
profits of the company. Bonus shares can be issued only if

Answer / nitin kewlani
Shares issued by a "healthy" company to existing
shareholders without any cost. They are issued in
proportion to the existing holding of a shareholder. Only
if a company has accumulated a surplus in free reserves
(retained profits) it can issue bonus shares. As bonus
issues add to the number of total shares of the company,
the Earnings Per Share ratio decreases
