Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Gensol Engineering clarified to the exchanges that a recent news report was based on an ex-parte interim order from the Delhi High Court dated 25.04.2025 in a case filed by Orix Leasing and Financial Services India Ltd. The order restrains Gensol and BluSmart from transferring EVs leased by Orix to any third party. The company noted that it has not yet been able to present its submissions before the court. The matter involves 175 leased vehicles, of which lease payments for 37 have already been made to Orix. Gensol stated it is taking legal advice and will keep stakeholders informed of further developments.
This is an adverse legal development for Gensol as it faces a court-imposed restriction on a portion of its EV fleet, which could affect business operations and asset monetisation. The interim nature of the order and the fact that the company has not yet argued its case offers some hope, but ongoing litigation adds uncertainty and negative sentiment for shareholders.
