The Bosch stock split of 1:5, along with a 3:1 bonus issue, will turn every one share held into 20 shares, according to a 6 November 2026 report that said the board of Bosch Limited has approved both proposals. Each equity share with a face value of Rs 10 will be sub-divided into five shares of Rs 2 each.
Both proposals still need shareholder approval through a postal ballot. The reports reviewed do not state a record date, so the timing of the corporate action is not yet known.
How does the Bosch stock split and bonus issue work?
Under the 1:5 split, one share with a face value of Rs 10 becomes five shares with a face value of Rs 2 each. The 3:1 bonus issue then gives three additional fully paid-up shares of Rs 2 for every one share held after the split, funded from retained earnings. The combined effect is that an investor holding one share before the action would hold 20 afterwards. Authorised share capital will also be increased, according to Autocar Professional.
A split and bonus issue changes the number of shares and their face value, not the value of an investor’s holding on its own.
What were Bosch’s Q2 FY27 results?
Bosch also reported results for the July-September quarter of FY27. According to Kotak Neo, consolidated net profit was Rs 839.4 crore, up 18.6% from Rs 708 crore a year earlier, and included a one-time gain of Rs 130 crore. Autocar Professional reported net profit of about Rs 840 crore.
Revenue from operations was Rs 7,655 crore, up 28.2% from Rs 5,969 crore, according to Kotak Neo. The same report said EBITDA rose 23.2% to Rs 1,037 crore, while the EBITDA margin narrowed to 13.5% from 14%.

Bosch shares fell Rs 1,775, or 3.38%, to an indicative close of Rs 50,700 on 6 November 2026, from Rs 52,475, according to Kotak Neo. The stock opened at Rs 52,355 and touched an intraday low of Rs 50,320. The reports do not attribute the decline to a specific cause.
What Happens Next?
Shareholders will vote on the split and the bonus issue through a postal ballot. The company is expected to announce the record date separately; none had been stated in the reports reviewed. Investors should watch for the postal ballot notice and the record date announcement for the exact schedule.
