Bosch Ltd's Board has recommended a final dividend of Rs. 270 per equity share for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM on August 11, 2026. This represents a significant reduction from Rs. 512 per share paid in the previous year. Despite this, the company's standalone revenue grew 10.8% to Rs. 20,035 crore, and net profit jumped 37.6% to Rs. 2,770 crore. The EPS improved to Rs. 939.28 from Rs. 682.62. The dividend will be paid on or after August 14, 2026. The Board also approved a 50-50 joint venture with Wheels India and Brakes India for commercial vehicle air systems, and an acquisition of Bosch Chassis Systems India for up to Rs. 9,069 crore.
The near-halving of dividend per share despite strong profit growth may concern short-term income investors. However, the reduction appears linked to the large Rs. 9,069 crore acquisition of Bosch Chassis Systems India and JV formation, requiring significant capital deployment.
