This was an increase of 45.1 percent over the same quarter of the previous year. This all-time high is due to the low base last year and the easing of supply-chain bottlenecks, especially toward the end of the quarter, in conjunction with a positive production in the tractor segment.

Profit before tax stood at INR 438 crores (51.8 million euros) that constitutes to 12.3 percent of total revenue from operations; that is a 30.5 percent increase over the same quarter of previous year. Profit after tax stood at INR 334 crores (39.5 million euros) which is 9.4 percent of revenue from operations.

"The strong momentum exiting FY2021-22 was sustained and further improved over the past quarter due to recovery in the overall automotive market. This has bolstered our confidence that we will surpass the peaks of FY2018-19," said Soumitra Bhattacharya, Managing Director of Bosch Limited and President of the Bosch Group in India. "With a steady order book and easing supply chain issues, we expect to maintain robust growth across revenue and free cash flows for the remainder of FY2022-23. Our focus is to maintain steady margins through strategic cost recovery across our supply chains," he added.

Snapshot of performance in Quarter 1
The automotive market in Quarter 1 witnessed a strong year-on-year growth on a Covid-impacted low base. Owing to OEMs' long waiting periods and strong order books we have a sustained demand in segments like Passenger Cars and Utility Vehicle, along with further improvements in two-wheelers and tractors. This has resulted in an increase of 47.4 percent in the Powertrain Solutions division. The Automotive Aftermarket division also surpassed its peak with an increase of 61.3 percent due to a low base in Q1 FY 2021-22. The Beyond Mobility businesses recorded an increase of 53.6 percent mainly due to growth in Consumer Goods division by 48.6 percent.
