Bosch Q2 Results FY27: 6 Nov Date and Profit Base

Earnings · Auto Components · Bosch Limited

Bosch is listed to report its September-quarter numbers on 6 November 2026. Here are the date check, the Rs 554 crore profit base, the Q1 rebound in sales that sat beside a 37% profit fall, the one-time gain behind that fall, and what to read first.

Updated: Monday, 2 November 2026, 12:30 PM IST  |  Reading time: 20 min  |  Next update: Friday, 6 November 2026, after the exchange filing

Latest update (Monday, 2 November 2026, 12:30 PM IST): The results are not out. Kotak Neo’s weekly list shows Bosch for Friday, 6 November; the date rests on that one report and the filing time is not announced. This page becomes the live analysis after the filing.

Earlier entries:

• Friday, 30 October 2026, 6:00 PM IST: Kotak Neo listed Bosch among Friday’s results.
• Monday, 10 August 2026: Q1 FY27 results were reported after market hours, per Upstox.

In plain words: Before the Bosch Q2 results arrive, remember that the company makes fuel-injection parts, sensors and power tools. Last year its profit in one quarter was lifted by selling a business. That makes this year’s comparison look worse than the operations are, so it matters which quarter and which profit line you use. A preview tells you which figures to hold the new numbers against.

Data note: Figures are as of Monday, 2 November 2026, 12:30 PM IST. The results date comes from one weekly list; the filing itself was not opened for this page. Figures are as reported by Kotak Neo, Upstox, Business Standard, Angel One and Investywise. Where sources differ I say so. Derived numbers are my calculation.

When are the Bosch Q2 results?

The Bosch Q2 results date is listed as Friday, 6 November 2026. The date rests on one weekly list, so confirm it on the exchange page.

Kotak Neo’s weekly list, posted at 6:00 PM IST on 30 October 2026, names Bosch among Friday’s results, and says dates are based on announced board-meeting schedules and may change. I found no second report that quotes the intimation, so treat the date as likely but unconfirmed.

Last year the company reported its Q2 FY26 numbers on Tuesday, 11 November 2025, according to Business Standard, which published at 4:09 PM IST, and Q1 FY27 on Monday, 10 August 2026 after market hours, per Upstox. The filing time is not announced. Do not trust a screenshot that claims a time before the exchange page shows it.

What will Bosch publish?

Bosch will publish unaudited standalone and consolidated results for the quarter and half-year ended 30 September 2026, with a press release. Sources quote both sets, so check the label on every figure.

Is the date confirmed?

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Q2 FY27 Date Check, as of 1 November 2026”.

Treat any article that gives another date for the Bosch Q2 results as unreliable until you see the filing, and do not confuse Bosch Limited with Bosch Home Comfort India, a separate listed company.

What is the base to beat for the Bosch Q2 results?

The base to beat is Q2 FY26 net profit of Rs 554 crore on revenue of Rs 4,795 crore, against about Rs 702 crore and Rs 5,842 crore in Q1 FY27.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Base-to-Beat Table, as of 1 November 2026”.

Bosch net profit Q2 FY27: the flat-quarter sum

Here is the first useful sum. Q1 FY27 revenue of Rs 5,842 crore is +21.8% above Q2 FY26’s Rs 4,795 crore, and Q1 profit of Rs 701.8 crore is +26.7% above Rs 554 crore (my calculations). A flat Q2 would therefore show about 27% profit growth on last year, so a headline of that size says little about the quarter itself.

How was the Q2 FY26 base built?

Revenue grew 9.1% to Rs 4,795 crore and total expenses rose 8.9% to Rs 4,274 crore, led by a 10.6% rise in the cost of materials, according to Business Standard. Profit before tax and exceptional items was Rs 730 crore, up 7.9%, and net profit Rs 554 crore, a margin of 11.6% (554 divided by 4,795, my calculation). Angel One noted the segment beyond mobility fell 14.4% after the May 2025 sale of the video, access and intrusion and communication businesses.

Bosch Q2 results preview: what to expect

No consensus estimate was found for Q2 FY27, and none for Q2 FY26. Q1 FY27 showed a 22% sales rise and about 14% EBITDA margin, but the profit line was distorted by a year-ago gain.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Q2 FY27 Outlook Marks, as of 1 November 2026”.

Upstox reported profit before tax of Rs 939 crore in Q1 FY27, about 16% of revenue and up 12% on the year, while Kotak Neo did not report PBT. Because the year-ago PBT is not stated in the source, treat the 12% as the source’s own comparison.

Bosch EBITDA Q2 FY27: what to expect

Q1 EBITDA of Rs 821 crore on revenue of Rs 5,842 crore is a margin of 14.1% (my calculation). If Q2 revenue were about Rs 5,500 crore at the same margin, EBITDA would be near Rs 770 crore. That is my illustration, not an estimate, and the Q2 FY26 EBITDA was not in the sources I opened, so I cannot compute a growth rate on it.

How did the shares react to Q1?

Upstox reported the shares closing at Rs 43,505 on the NSE on 10 August 2026, up 1.29%, before the results came out. Kotak Neo reported Rs 45,100 at 11:11 AM on 11 August, up 3.67%. After the Q2 FY26 results the stock closed at Rs 36,680, down 1.61%, per Angel One. Those are reactions to what the market expected, not forecasts of Q2 FY27.

Bosch profit and margin for Q2 FY27: scenarios

These Bosch Q2 results scenarios are arithmetic, not forecasts. A flat Q1 profit would be +26.7% on Q2 FY26.

Assumptions: Q2 FY26 revenue Rs 4,795 crore and net profit Rs 554 crore; revenue growth of 10%, 15% and 20% is my illustration around Q1’s 22% year-on-year growth and the 21.8% gap over the Q2 FY26 base; net profit margins of 11.6%, 12.0% and 12.5% run from last September’s level to the Q1 FY27 level.

Profit levels

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Q2 FY27 Profit Levels, as of 1 November 2026”.

Three worked examples

• Margin as last September: revenue +15% is Rs 5,514 crore and an 11.6% margin gives profit of Rs 640 crore, +15% on Rs 554 crore (my calculation).
• Margin of 12.0%: Rs 662 crore, +19%.
• Margin of 12.5%: Rs 689 crore, +24%.

The scenarios hold other lines constant. In practice other income, tax, depreciation, exceptional items and the mix of segments sit between revenue and profit, and any of them can move the result.

A sales rise of 22% with a profit fall of 37% looks like a contradiction until you remember the year-ago gain. This is why the profit before exceptional items and the EBITDA lines are the cleaner way to compare the two quarters.

Which Bosch figures should you compare?

When you compare the Bosch Q2 results with last year, match profit before exceptional items with the same line, and one source’s figure with the same source. Several versions circulate.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Definition-Trap Table, as of 1 November 2026”.

The “sixfold” and Rs 795 crore claims in one headline show how easily a number gets into circulation without matching the text. Check the line, the quarter and the basis before you share a growth rate.

EBITDA versus profit

EBITDA is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation. It leaves out the one-time gain that lifted last year’s profit, so it is a cleaner line for comparing the two quarters. Net profit also reflects tax, depreciation, other income and exceptional items.

The base-effect trap

When a prior-year figure includes a gain from selling a business, the current year looks like a fall even if operations improved. For Q2 FY27 the base of Rs 554 crore is cleaner, because Investywise reported profit before tax before exceptional items of Rs 730 crore for Q2 FY26, though the exceptional amount itself was not stated.

One more habit helps: write the exact line, the basis and the source beside every figure before results day. When the company files, you can then see in seconds whether a headline is comparing like with like, instead of reacting to a growth rate built on a different base.

What do the segments need to show?

In the Bosch Q2 results, Mobility growth near the Q1 pace, a steady power-solutions line and two-wheeler growth are the marks to look for.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Segment Marks, as of 1 November 2026”.

The two-wheeler line grew more than 80% in Q2 FY26 because of demand for exhaust gas sensors after OBD2 norms took effect on 1 April 2025, so its Q2 FY27 growth rate will face a harder base than the other segments. That is my reading of the source, and the Q2 FY26 split is only as good as Angel One’s report.

Watch whether Mobility and Power Solutions growth stays near the Q1 pace, whether the aftermarket recovers from the GST effect, and whether the two-wheeler line slows on the high base.

Which other results land the same week as Bosch?

Kotak Neo’s weekly list shows Hindalco, 3M India, TTK Prestige, Cholamandalam Financial Holdings, Banco Products, Carraro India and Foseco India on Friday too, with Berger Paints and Thermax on Thursday.

The list is partial and dates may change. For the format of a results read, see our recent posts on Hindalco Q2 results, Cummins India Q2 results and Exide Industries Q2 results. They cover other companies, so only the method carries over. The Q2 results calendar and the earnings calendar list the companies that have reported.

How to read the Bosch Q2 results in 10 minutes

To read the Bosch Q2 results quickly, go through seven lines in order: revenue, EBITDA, margin, profit before tax, net profit, segment growth and the notes on exceptional items.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Results-Day Decoder, as of 1 November 2026”.

How to read the Bosch filing on NSE or BSE

Open the exchange announcement, find the standalone statement first and compare each line with the base table above, same measure, same basis.

1. Open the BSE corporate announcements page or the NSE corporate filings page and search for Bosch Limited.
2. Choose the financial results announcement for the quarter ended 30 September 2026.
3. Find the standalone statement first, then the consolidated.
4. Check the unit and whether a column is for the quarter or six months.
5. Read revenue, total expenses, profit before exceptional items and profit after tax.
6. Open the press release for segment growth.
7. Check the notes for exceptional items.
8. Compare every figure with the base table.

What it costs: reading a filing is free. If you trade the stock, brokerage, securities transaction tax and other charges apply, so check your broker’s current schedule. Tax angle: dividends and gains follow the current tax rules, so see our guide to capital gains tax on shares or ask a tax adviser. Scam warning: on results day, fake “result alert” groups and sure-shot tips circulate. Nobody can guarantee a gain, and official filings are free.

What is the results-day checklist for Bosch?

• Confirm the date on the BSE or NSE announcement page.
• Note the filing time and stamp what you read with it.
• Open the statement of the Bosch Q2 results before any headline.
• Compare revenue with Rs 4,795 crore and Rs 5,842 crore.
• Check whether a profit number is before or after exceptional items.
• Compare net profit with Rs 554 crore and about Rs 702 crore.
• Check EBITDA margin against about 14.0%.
• Check the notes for one-off gains or losses.
• Write your own plan before the price moves.

What are the risks around the Bosch Q2 results?

How to grade Bosch’s September-quarter numbers: a reading guide

Use the table to grade the Bosch Q2 results as a reading aid, not a forecast. The cut-offs are my illustration, built from the Q1 FY27 and Q2 FY26 marks.

Assumptions: Q2 FY26 revenue Rs 4,795 crore and profit Rs 554 crore; Q1 FY27 profit of about Rs 702 crore and a margin near 12.0% are the strong mark.

Cite this table: PositionalCalls, “Bosch Q2 FY27 Reading Guide, as of 1 November 2026”.

Worked example: suppose revenue is Rs 5,600 crore and net profit Rs 660 crore. Revenue would be up +16.8% (5,600 divided by 4,795), profit +19.1% on Rs 554 crore, and the margin 11.8% (my calculation). Revenue would read in line, the margin in line, and profit in line, with growth that is large because last September was a modest base.

A strong reading describes the quarter only. It is not a signal to buy, sell or hold, and a weak one is not a signal either. Prices react to many things, including what the market already expected.

The guide to the Bosch Q2 results uses one basis for every line. If a headline quotes consolidated profit, compare it with the consolidated base and say so when you share the number. Mixing the two is a common error on results day, because the company reports both.
