Bosch Limited reported Q2 FY26 revenue of INR 47,948 million, up 9.1% YoY, driven by strong performance in power solutions and two-wheeler segments. EBITDA grew 10.1% YoY to INR 6,171 million, aided by favorable product mix and cost optimization. The two-wheeler business surged 81.8% YoY due to OBD2 norm implementation. Management highlighted steady EV progress and hydrogen ICE technology maturity, with 8-15% market penetration expected by 2030 in heavy commercial vehicles. However, exports remain cautious due to geopolitical uncertainties. Risks include potential margin pressure from EV entry and slow recovery in consumer goods due to GST transition effects.
बॉश लिमिटेड ने दूसरी तिमाही में 47,948 मिलियन रुपये का कारोबार किया, जो पिछले साल से 9.1% ज़्यादा है। यह वृद्धि पावर सॉल्यूशंस और दोपहिया वाहनों की मजबूत बिक्री से हुई। कंपनी का मुनाफा (EBITDA) 10.1% बढ़कर 6,171 मिलियन रुपये हो गया, जिसमें बेहतर उत्पाद मिश्रण और लागत बचत का योगदान रहा। दोपहिया कारोबार में 81.8% का उछाल OBD2 नियम लागू होने से आया। प्रबंधन ने इलेक्ट्रिक वाहनों (EV) और हाइड्रोजन इंजन तकनीक में प्रगति बताई। 2030 तक भारी वाणिज्यिक वाहनों में 8-15% बाजार हिस्सेदारी की उम्मीद है। हालांकि, भू-राजनीतिक अनिश्चितता के कारण निर्यात में सावधानी है। EV में प्रवेश से मुनाफे पर दबाव और GST बदलाव से उपभोक्ता वस्तुओं की धीमी रिकवरी जोखिम हैं।
