Bosch India Q1 profit falls 37 percent to ₹702 crore
Bosch is a big company from Germany that makes parts for cars and trucks.
It has a branch in India called Bosch Limited.
Every three months, companies tell people how much money they made.
This time, Bosch India made less profit than the same time last year, by 37 percent.
That sounds bad, but there is a good reason.
Last year, Bosch sold one of its businesses and got a lot of money from that one-time sale.
This year, there was no such extra money, so profit looks smaller.
In fact, the company's normal business is growing.
It sold more car parts and two-wheeler parts than before.
Bosch is also buying other companies to make even better and safer car parts in the future.
Bosch Limited reported a 37% year-on-year fall in profit after tax to ₹702 crore for Q1 FY27.
The decline is attributed to an exceptional gain recorded in Q1 FY26 from the ₹595 crore sale of its Building Technology business.
Revenue from operations rose to ₹5,842 crore, driven by higher demand in passenger vehicle and off-highway segments.
Overall automotive product sales grew 25.7%, with two-wheeler sales up 41.4% and Power Solutions up 29%.
The company is expanding through the acquisition of Bosch Chassis Systems and a joint venture with TSF Group for commercial vehicle air systems.
