No If u do, then it will be considered as deemed Dividend as per income tax law


There is no explicit provision stating " Bonus shares to be issued only to Equity Shareholders only".

Bonus would be issued to equity shares only unless terms of shareholder agreements provide otherwise. The reserves belong to equity shareholder.
