August 2024 : Bosch Limited recently posted its total revenue from operations of INR ₹4317 crores (481 million euros) in Quarter 1 of FY 2024–25, an increase of 3.8 percent over the same quarter of last year. This growth is driven by higher demand in the overall automotive market, mainly in the passenger cars segment.
The Profit Before Tax stood at INR ₹611 crores (68 million euros) which is 14.1 percent of the total revenue from operations, an increase of 14.7 percent over the same quarter of previous year. The Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at INR 466 crores (52 million euros) which is 10.8 percent of the revenue from operations.
“The financial year commenced with moderate growth in the automotive market despite the challenges of a high base from the previous year, a slowdown related to elections and the summer heatwaves. Continued demand in the passenger car segment, coupled with growth in production and wholesale, resulted in growth for Bosch Limited, this quarter. However, retail sales have remained sluggish leading to a rise in the pipeline inventory. Despite the challenges, the overall sentiment in the automotive sector remains positive,” said Guruprasad Mudlapur, President, Bosch Group in India, and Managing Director, Bosch Limited.
Overall product sales of the automotive segment have increased by 4.1 percent compared to the same quarter of the previous year. The Power Solutions business, which constitutes 72 percent of the overall automotive product sales, grew by 2.3 percent over the same quarter of previous financial year, driven majorly by the passenger car segment due to continued consumer demand.
The Mobility Aftermarket business grew by 8.1 percent compared to the same quarter last year on account of increased market demand for new generation diesel components and strong performance in our core product categories.
The Beyond Mobility business recorded a 5.8 percent increase in net sales over the same quarter of the previous financial year, driven by continued growth in the Consumer Goods Product and Building Technologies segment.
“The optimistic growth in the Indian economy with higher disposable incomes puts us in a sweet spot with the continued growth in demand for the auto sector. With sustained infrastructural investments, we are well positioned for growth in our Power Tools and Building Technologies businesses. Bosch will continue to strengthen its portfolio through localization and capitalize on the potential of alternative fuel technologies and electric vehicles to usher in a new era of mobility,” adds Mudlapur.
