What is the face value of a share?

Every share has a basic value which is known as its face value.

This face value can be considered as the original value of the share in the company.

The company need not issue shares at face value because these can be given to investors at a premium too.

The face value can be different figures like Rs 10 or Rs 5 or Rs 2.

The dividend on the shares is calculated as a percentage of the face value of the share.
