Bosch Limited October-December Profit Rises 16% to ₹5.3 Billion; Revenue Up 9.4% on Auto Sector Recovery

Bosch Limited reported a profit after tax (PAT) of ₹5.32 for October-December, a 16.1% increase from ₹4.58 billion in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. Revenue from operations grew 9.4% to ₹48.86 billion, compared to ₹44.66 billion in the year-ago period.

The company in a press release stated the performance was supported by a "synchronized upturn" in the Indian automotive sector, "festive momentum," and policy support identified as "GST 2.0".

Financial Performance
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) for the quarter rose 5.1% to ₹6.12 billion from ₹5.83 billion in the previous year. Bosch Limited attributed the absolute EBITDA growth to a "favourable product mix" and the optimisation of expenses. The rise in PAT was further aided by improved EBITDA margins and profit realised from the sale of the "Video solutions, Access and Intrusions and Communication systems" business.

For the nine months ended December 2025, revenue from operations reached ₹144.7 billion, reflecting a 9.8% growth.
