Bosch Limited has secured in-principle approval from stock exchanges to issue 2460 equity shares to promoters on a preferential basis, a move that will alter the company's shareholding structure. The National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited granted the approval on June 02, 2026, under Regulation 28(1) of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The issuance involves equity shares with a face value of Rs. 10 each.

The approval is contingent upon Bosch Limited fulfilling several conditions set by the exchanges. The company must file the listing application immediately following the date of allotment and secure all necessary statutory approvals from authorities including SEBI, RBI, and MCA. Additionally, the company is required to comply with all applicable guidelines and directions of the exchanges and other statutory bodies as of the date of the listing application.

The exchanges have advised the company to strengthen internal controls to monitor trades executed by the proposed allottees to prevent non-compliances. Specifically, Bosch Limited must obtain an undertaking from the allottees confirming that they will not engage in intra-day trading or sell any shares in the company until the allotment date. The responsibility for verifying this compliance and ensuring adherence to Regulation 167(6) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, 2018, rests solely with the issuer company.

Any non-compliance observed by the exchanges post-allotment could impact the listing of these shares. The exchanges have also reserved the right to withdraw the in-principle approval if the information provided is found to be incomplete, incorrect, misleading, or in contravention of any rules or regulations. The reference numbers for the approval letters are NSE/LIST/54483 and LOD/PREF/GB/FIP/314/2026-27 for NSE and BSE respectively.

Key Details of the Preferential Issue

Bosch Limited presented its strategic roadmap for software-driven mobility (SDM) and software-defined vehicles (SDV) at the Citi India Investor Conference 2026. The presentation, delivered by Managing Director and Chief Technology Officer Guruprasad Mudlapur, outlined the company's transformation towards centralized electrical/electronic (E/E) architectures and AI-based ecosystems. This initiative aims to address accelerating changes in the mobility sector, including electrification, autonomous driving, and software-driven disruption.

The company detailed its transition from fragmented domain-specific E/E architectures to centralized, cross-domain systems. This shift reduces the number of control units and system complexity, enabling a software-first design. Bosch emphasized that SDV serves as a building block within the broader SDM transformation, focusing on decoupling software from hardware to allow over-the-air updates and faster time-to-market.

Bosch's technology stack spans solutions, services, and application software across ADAS, Motion, Energy, Body & Comfort, and Infotainment. The company highlighted its ADAS L2++ with end-to-end AI, offering scalable product families from entry-trim to high-trim levels. Additionally, Bosch is collaborating globally on a standardized eAxle platform to optimize costs and meet worldwide standards.

The presentation identified key challenges and opportunities, including geopolitical shifts, supply chain disruptions, and the need for digital and AI skills. Bosch is rethinking its work culture by embracing agile development, separate paths for software and hardware, and continuous improvement through DevOps cycles. The company stated that discussions during the conference would rely solely on publicly available documents.
