bisonrabbit Answered:

The bonus issue for the shares are applicable to all the shareholdings whether it is through IPO or from secondary market. That is why there exists a record date. If only IPO holders get the bonus then there is no meaning of the record date. So till the record date is announced all retail shareholders are alligible to get the bonus. Once you get the bonus should have a treat.
