This sort of thing is best left up to data providers who do it professionally, especially in markets where these sorts of things happen all the time.
 
Here's a generic formula:
For a A for B rights issue at $C where the stock was trading at $D before the ex-date, the adjustment (dilution) factor is:
(C*A/(A+B))+(D*B/(A+B))/D
 
The expected price for the the stock to open on the ex date is:
(C*A/(A+B))+(D*B/(A+B))
 
In your example, this means the stock should open around $0.4267

Hi,

Can someone advise how do we do the share price
adjustment for stock rights issue.

e.g.
for Stock "A" trading at $0.50 before rights issue.
If the rights issue is 1 rights for 5 existing shares
at $0.06, what is the price after the ex-date of
rights issue?

many thanks.
