INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM STANDALONE FINANCIAL RESULTS

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF BOSCH LIMITED

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Standalone Unaudited Financial Results of BOSCH LIMITED ("the Company"), for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020 ("the Statement"), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended.
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company's Management and approved by the Company's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity', issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of the Company's personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
    1. Based on our review conducted as stated in paragraph 3 above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standard and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Parent's Management and approved by the Parent's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of Parent's personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
    1. The Statement includes the results of the following entities: Parent: Bosch Limited MICO Trading Private Limited Subsidiaries: Robert Bosch India Manufacturing and Technology Private Limited Associate: Newtech Filter India Private Limited Joint Venture: Prebo Automotive Private Limited
    1. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standard and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Requlation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Requlations, 2015, as amended, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.
    1. The consolidated unaudited financial results includes the financial results of one subsidiary which has not been reviewed by their auditors, whose interim financial information reflects total assets of Rs 1 lakh as at December 31, 2020, total revenue of Rs. Nil for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020, total loss after tax of Rs. 160 lakhs and Rs. 175 lakhs for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020, total comprehensive loss of Rs. 160 lakhs and Rs. 175 lakhs for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020, as considered in the Statement. The consolidated unaudited financial results includes the Group's share of profit after tax of Rs. 15 lakhs and Rs. 35 lakhs for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and total comprehensive profit of Rs. 15 lakhs and Rs. 35 Lakhs for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020, as considered in the Statement, in respect of one joint venture, based on their interim financial information which has not been reviewed by their auditors.

February 11, 2021 Corp/C/CCR-IN CIN: L85110KA1951PLC000761 "The sales figure for the festive season in the last quarter was better than anticipated, especially in the tractor and passenger automotive segments. However, the volatilities in the supply chain continued to disrupt growth. Since late last year, the industry has been hit by a shortage in the supply of semiconductors, which has impacted the company's imports and automotive production in India. Bosch is currently focusing on maintaining supply chains to the extent possible despite a tense market situation, while discussing the issues directly with its customers and suppliers," said Soumitra Bhattacharya, the managing director of Bosch Limited and president of the Bosch India Group.

Snapshot of business divisions' performance in Quarter 3

There was an increase in the sales of the Powertrain Solutions business division in Quarter 3 of FY 2020-21 by 46 percent. The Two-Wheeler and Powersports business continued to witness growth during the quarter. On the other hand, the company's business in beyond mobility segment posted a decline of 7.7 percent due to lower revenues in solar energy and building technologies.

The implementation of the approved scrappage policy will undoubtedly improve sales that will benefit the industry and environment.

"The last three years have been tough for the automotive industry. Bosch Limited embarked on a journey to become fit for future with our 3R strategy – Reskilling, Restructuring and Redeployment. At the peak of its transformational journey, Bosch Limited has been recognized as a Great Place to Work-Certified™ company for 2021, an accolade that more than 1,000 organizations in India aspire to every year. This is testimony to Bosch Limited's commitment to creating a credible and fair organization by retaining competence for the future," Mr. Bhattacharya added.

For the period of nine months that ended on December 31, 2020, the company's total turnover declined by 15 percent. Sales of Mobility Solutions sector decreased by 13.3 percent whereas business beyond mobility solutions sector witnessed a reduction of 24.4 percent. With the current deployment of COVID-19 vaccinations and the array of reforms announced by the Government of India, the company maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook for the auto sector.
