Bosch Shares Slip 3.38% After 1:5 Stock Split And 3:1 Bonus Issue Announcement; Q2 Net Profit Grows 19%

Bosch Ltd announced a stock split and a bonus share issue on 6 November, alongside its results for the second quarter of FY27. The company's board approved a 1:5 stock split and a 3:1 bonus issue, subject to shareholder approval.

The announcements came as Bosch reported an 18.6% year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit for the September quarter. Revenue also recorded healthy growth during the quarter, while the company's EBITDA margin saw a slight decline.

Bosch shares were at an indicative close of ₹50,700 on 6 November, down ₹1,775 or 3.38% from the previous close of ₹52,475. During the session, the stock opened at ₹52,355 and touched an intraday low of ₹50,320. Its volume-weighted average price (VWAP) stood at ₹51,168.21.

Bosch Announces 1:5 Stock Split and 3:1 Bonus Issue

Bosch's board approved a sub-division of its existing equity shares in the ratio of 1:5. Under the proposal, each equity share with a face value of ₹10 will be split into five shares with a face value of ₹2 each.

The board also approved a bonus issue in the ratio of 3:1. This means eligible shareholders will receive three additional equity shares for every one share held after the stock split.

Taken together, the two corporate actions would increase the number of shares held by an investor to 20 for every one share held before the split and bonus issue. Both proposals are subject to shareholder approval through a postal ballot.
