Why all share will have face value 10 and how face value is calculated .
Answers (2)
Face value of a share, also known as the par value, is the value at which a share is listed on the stock market. The face value of share can be taken up from Rs.1 but Majorly, the shares of Indian companies have a face value of Rs.10. There are no fixed criteria for deciding on the face value of a stock. It is fixed by the company, once it decides to issue its shares and bonds.
