Anmol and Puneet Jaggi resign from Gensol following SEBI probe
Medial

Anmol and Puneet Jaggi resign from Gensol following SEBI probe Gensol Engineering Limited announced today that two of its top executives, Managing Director Anmol Singh Jaggi and Whole-time Director Puneet Singh Jaggi, have resigned from their positions, effective from the close of business hours on May 12, 2025. In separate resignation letters addressed to the Board of Directors, both Anmol Jaggi and Puneet Jaggi cited compliance with directions issued under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Interim Order dated April 15, 2025, as the reason for their departures. The resignations also include stepping down from all committee memberships within the company. The development comes a couple of days after SEBI’s order to conduct a forensic audit of Gensol Engineering’s financial statements for the financial years FY22 to FY25. The market regulator has already published findings of its probe into Gensol Engineering, BluSmart’s partner and EV lessor, which highlighted misuse of funds and also barred promoters Anmol and Puneet Singh Jaggi from accessing the securities market and holding key positions in Gensol Engineering. According to SEBI interim order, both promoters (Jaggi brothers) siphoned off hundreds of crores in company funds borrowed for the purchase of electric vehicles meant for their affiliate BluSmart for personal and related-party gains, including the purchase of a luxury apartment in Gurgaon, golf accessories, foreign currency, and travel. Following the crisis at Gensol, BluSmart suspended services in key metros such as Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi. The BP Ventures– and Mayfield–backed company has been also facing protests from its driver partners over unpaid dues and job losses. While Uber was reportedly in talks to acquire BluSmart’s fleet, Evera Cabs (Prakriti Mobility) initiated the repossession of 500 electric cabs formerly operated by BluSmart recently. The embattled cab operator is reportedly in talks with two major distressed asset funds focused on the climate and mobility sectors to revive its operations. However, considering the current situation, the chances of bringing the company back on track remain negative.

Gensol faces insolvency as IREDA moves NCLT over Rs 510 Cr loan default The Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA) has moved the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) against Gensol Engineering Ltd, seeking insolvency proceedings over a Rs 510 crore loan default, according to a regulatory filing made to the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). As per the filing, IREDA has filed the application under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), showing a significant step in its attempt to recover dues from the Ahmedabad-based renewable energy firm. Gensol, which has been active in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services for solar power projects, as well as in the electric mobility space, had taken loans amounting to over Rs 977 crore from IREDA and Power Finance Corporation (PFC). Out of Rs 977 crore, around Rs 664 crore was allocated for purchasing EVs for BluSmart, an electric ride-hailing platform co-founded by Gensol promoters Anmol Singh Jaggi and Puneet Singh Jaggi. This insolvency action comes just weeks after IREDA complained to the Economic Offences Wing (EOW), accusing Gensol of diverting funds and submitting false documents. The agency also said the company’s promoters reduced their shareholding without informing the lender. Following the controversy, market regulator SEBI barred both Jaggi brothers from holding any executive or directorial positions in listed companies. The duo stepped down from their respective roles on May 12. Gensol, once considered a rising player in India’s green mobility and solar infra push, is now facing a potential corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP), subject to admission by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT).

Ola Electric under alleged insider trading probe; company responds

Ola Electric under alleged insider trading probe; company responds Ola Electric issued a clarification through a stock exchange filing, stating that the trades referred to were routine transactions involving shares acquired through exercising these ESOPs and not through the open market purchase. Ola Electric is reportedly under the regulatory lens, claiming that SEBI may investigate the electric vehicle maker for alleged insider trading. According to the report, the probe concerns suspicious trading patterns in the company's unlisted shares ahead of key internal developments. In response, Ola Electric issued a clarification through a stock exchange filing, stating that the trades referred to were routine transactions involving shares acquired through exercising these ESOPs and not through the open market purchase. The development follows an earlier warning from SEBI in January 2025, when the regulator flagged Ola Electric for breaching disclosure norms. At the time, the company had publicized a major retail expansion via social media before informing the stock exchanges, prompting SEBI to caution the startup against selective disclosure and remind it to adhere strictly to disclosure regulations under the SEBI (LODR) rules. In February 2025, a discrepancy emerged between Ola Electric’s reported sales figures of 25,000 vehicles and the approximately 8,600 vehicle registrations recorded on the government’s VAHAN portal. Ola Electric explained that the gap was a result of ongoing negotiations with its vehicle registration vendors. In April, the company secured the second position in the electric two-wheeler segment, with TVS Motor emerging as the market leader. Ola Electric's share price has declined to Rs 48.53, bringing its estimated market capitalization down to Rs 21,405 crore (approximately $2.5 billion). In Q3 FY25 (ended December 2024), the company reported a 19.4% year-on-year drop in operating revenue, falling to Rs 1,045 crore from Rs 1,296 crore in the same quarter last year. At the same time, its net loss widened significantly—up 50% year-on-year—to Rs 564 crore. Disclaimer: Bareback Media has recently raised funding from a group of investors.
