Bonus shares 2024: The NMDC share price witnessed some selling pressure in the early morning session on Friday. Trading ex-date for finalizing the list of eligible shareholders for the issuance of two bonus shares for every one share, NMDC share price today opened upside at ₹71.84 apiece on the NSE. It touched an intraday high of ₹72.10 per share within a few minutes of the Opening Bell. However, after the profit-booking trigger, the bonus share failed to sustain at higher levels and witnessed downside pressure.
