Impact Assessment
The face value split from Rs. 100 to Re. 1 (a 100:1 ratio) will increase the number of units outstanding proportionally, making individual units more affordable and potentially improving liquidity for retail investors. The total value of holdings for existing unit holders remains unchanged. Members and market participants should ensure their trading and back-office systems reflect the new face value from April 30, 2026.
Impact Justification
Face value split affects unit pricing and accessibility of the gold ETF but does not change the underlying asset value; relevant to existing and prospective investors in IVZINGOLD.
