Largecap auto components stock hits record high, zooms 53% from April low

Bosch Limited share price today Shares of Bosch Limited hit a record high of ₹39,598.30; gaining 4 per cent on the BSE in Tuesday's intra-day trade on healthy business outlook. The stock price of the largecap auto components & equipments company surpassed its previous high of ₹ 39,052 touched on October 9, 2024. It bounced back 53 per cent from its 52-week low of ₹ 25,938.20, which it had recorded on April 7, 2025. Bosch shares turn ex-date for dividend of ₹512 per share The board of directors of Bosch at their meeting held on May 27, 2025 recommended a final dividend of ₹512 per equity share of ₹10 each, subject to approval of shareholders. The company fixed July 29, 2025 as record date for determining entitlement of the shareholders to final dividend. Strong March 2025 quarter (Q4FY25) performance Bosch's Q4FY25 operational numbers have been ahead of estimates primarily due to strong revenue growth. However, despite this, Profit after tax (PAT) at ₹ 550 crore was below analyst's estimate of ₹ 580 crore due to a higher tax rate. Revenue jumped 16 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to ₹ 4,910 crore, primarily driven by 14.9 per cent YoY growth in the mobility business. Margins remained stable YoY at 13.2 per cent. Annual report - Bosch Limited The Government of India's forward-looking policies, including the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, Design Linked Incentives (DLI), and the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), alongside a strong focus on Artificial Intelligence (AI), are truly encouraging and underpin our strategic investments in these key areas, the management said in its FY25 annual report. Domestically, the growing affordability of the Indian middle class continues to drive demand for sophisticated automotive products and solutions. This demographic dividend, coupled with increasing disposable incomes, presents significant growth opportunities across all automotive segments. The future of mobility is increasingly software defined; transitioning from primarily mechanical systems with embedded software to intelligent connected systems that offer enhanced safety, efficiency, and user experience. The management said the company is strategically positioned to capitalize on this transformative trend with innovative, reliable, and cost-effective solutions. According to media sources, the Indian government has approved a new mandate requiring all new two-wheelers - scooters, motorcycles, and bikes - to be equipped with anti-lock braking systems (ABS), regardless of engine capacity, starting January 1, 2026. This regulation extends the current requirement, which applies only to models >= 125cc, to the entire two-wheeler segment. The move aims to significantly reduce road accidents and fatalities, particularly head injuries, as two-wheelers account for a significant portion of both accidents and deaths on Indian roads. According to analysts at ICICI Securities, this will provide new opportunities for the ancillary space with annual opportunity size pegged at ~₹3,000-6,000 crore with major beneficiaries being Bosch and Endurance Technologies among others. Meanwhile, the auto demand outlook continues to be subdued across key segments in the near term. Further, while Bosch continues to work towards the localization of new technologies, given the long gestation projects, its margin is likely to remain under pressure with no visibility of any material improvement, at least in the near term, Motilal Oswal Financial Services said in the Q4 result update. About the Bosch Group The Bosch Group is a leading supplier of software, technology & services in the areas of mobility solutions, industrial technology, consumer goods, and energy & building technology. The Group boasts its largest development center outside of Germany in India, which offers comprehensive engineering and technology solutions. Operating through an extensive portfolio of 15 companies, Bosch India synergizes top-notch German engineering with the entrepreneurial spirit of India.

₹35 lakh Cr credit, 7 IPOs, low debt: Real estate gets a financial makeover

India's real estate sector is no longer the cautionary tale it once was. With record-high credit flow, dramatically lower loan defaults, and a surge in real estate IPOs, the industry is undergoing a financial transformation that marks its most stable phase in over a decade. According to Colliers India, bank credit to the real estate sector has nearly doubled over the last four years—from ₹17.8 lakh crore in FY21 to ₹35.4 lakh crore in FY25. The sector now claims a 19.4% share of total bank lending, up from 13.8% in 2016—an indicator of renewed lender faith. Key takeways: Bank credit to the real estate sector has doubled since FY 2021; loan book at over Rs 35 lakh crore at the end of FY 2025 Leading real estate companies have shown improvements in operating and net profitability margins Debt-to-equity ratio of top 50 listed real estate companies has seen a significant drop since FY 2021, signaling steady balance sheet deleveraging Credit rating upgrades in real estate are significantly higher than the number of downgrades in the post-pandemic era Real Estate continues to tap the equity market – 7 IPOs totaling Rs 76 billion in 2025 so far Source: RBI and Colliers India Note: Data is for financial year (FY) | Real estate sector here includes – commercial real estate and housing (including priority sector housing) | Data is aggregate of 41 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs), which represents almost 95% of the total non-food credit deployed in India. Trends in NBFC loan book in India (in Rs lakh crore) - On the NBFC front, while their real estate lending has plateaued post the 2018 crisis, the overall outstanding loan book still rose to ₹1.3 lakh crore by FY25. NPAs (Non-Performing Assets) in the construction sector loan book dropped from 23.5% in 2021 to just 3.1% in 2025—a clear sign of enhanced repayment capacity and project viability. What This Means for You: If you're looking to invest in real estate, either directly or via REITs, you're entering a sector with lower credit risk and stronger financial discipline. Listed Developers Get Leaner, More Profitable An analysis of India's top 50 listed developers reveals remarkable financial improvement: 66% now have operating margins above 20%, up from 55% in FY21. 62% of companies posted net profit margins above 10%, nearly triple the share from four years ago. The proportion of firms with a debt-to-equity ratio below 0.5 has risen from 43% in FY21 to 62% in FY25. These improvements signal a deliberate move toward deleveraging, capital efficiency, and better governance—a far cry from the debt-laden, opaque practices of the past. Investor Insight: Financially prudent developers offer stronger equity returns and lower downside risks—ideal for both direct stock market investors and homebuyers concerned with project completion. Credit Ratings Soar—Real Estate Beats Other Sectors Perhaps the most telling metric: 23% of real estate companies saw credit upgrades in H2 FY25 versus just 1% facing downgrades. That's a 23:1 upgrade-to-downgrade ratio, far superior to the all-sector average of 2.3. What You Can Do: Use credit ratings as a filter when evaluating builders, real estate mutual funds, or REITs. Equity Markets Open Up—And Retail Investors Are Joining In Public markets are now a major funding channel. India saw 9 real estate IPOs in 2024, raising ₹13,800 crore—double the funds raised in 2023. In 2025 (so far), 7 real estate IPOs have raised ₹7,630 crore. IPO trends: Heightened activity in recent years Note: IPOs indicate listings on BSE including both Mainboard IPOs and SME IPOs. Real estate IPOs include issues by developers, housing finance companies, flex space operators, REITs, public sector undertakings of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Aff From traditional residential and commercial developers to flex-space operators and hospitality firms, a wide variety of real estate players are now tapping the IPO route. The rollout of REITs and SM-REITs is further democratizing property investment for the average Indian. Actionable Tip: Investors looking for real estate exposure can now buy units of REITs on stock exchanges, starting with as little as ₹1,000–₹5,000—no need to buy full properties. 'Real estate players are increasingly tapping public markets to fuel their expansion and strengthen balance sheets, signaling growing investor confidence in the sector. The strong momentum seen in 2024 has carried into 2025, with seven real estate IPOs, raising more than Rs 76 billion till July. Moreover, the diverse listings across segments such as flex spaces, hospitality, office, residential, etc., and the anticipated upswing in SM REIT and REIT activity is promising for the entire real estate sector. Indian real estate continues to draw strength from long-term stability and growing investor confidence, making it less vulnerable to global uncertainties,' said Vimal Nadar, National Director and Head of Research, Colliers India. Looking ahead, the outlook remains particularly positive for residential and commercial real estate, led by strong end-user demand, favorable demographics, rising disposable income, and relatively lower interest rates. However, real estate developers and investors must remain cautious of potential risks, including interest rate fluctuations, urban land acquisition bottlenecks, and global economic headwinds that could moderate real estate growth.
