Bosch Limited held its 74th Annual General Meeting on August 11, 2026, where Chairman Soumitra Bhattacharya delivered a speech highlighting the company's performance for FY 2025-26 and its strategic outlook.

The company reported a total revenue from operations of ₹20,035 crore for FY 2025-26, a 10.8% increase over the previous year, driven by higher sales of automotive products. Operating profit (EBIT) stood at ₹2,258 crore (11.3% of revenue), and Profit Before Tax (PBT) was ₹3,086 crore (15.4% of revenue). An exceptional item of ₹556 crore was recorded from the divestment of the "Video solutions, Access & Intrusion and Communication systems" business in May 2025. Profit After Tax (PAT) was ₹2,770 crore (13.8% of revenue).
