5100% Gains In 3 Years: Multibagger Stock Gains After Promoter Buys 53,945 Shares Via Open Market

Gensol Engineering Ltd's shares witnessed a substantial gain of more than 2%, trading at Rs 932.95 per share on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) as of 1:40 pm. This uptick in the share price comes on the back of an announcement by the company regarding a notable change in its shareholding pattern, spurred by the acquisition of shares by its Promoter and Managing Director, Anmol Singh Jaggi.

On June 4, 2024, Gensol Engineering Ltd announced that Jaggi had acquired 53,945 shares of the company through an open market operation. The transaction was valued at Rs 4,77,44,327.75, adding to Jaggi's already substantial holdings in the company. Prior to this acquisition, Jaggi held 79,64,766 equity shares, which accounted for 21.03% of the total shareholding. With this recent purchase, his stake has increased to 80,18,711 shares, representing 21.17% of the company's total shares.

This acquisition also boosted the overall promoter and promoter group shareholding, which rose from 2,37,17,306 shares (62.62% of the total shareholding) to 3,78,72,897 shares (62.77% of the total shareholding). This strategic move is seen as a vote of confidence in the company's future prospects by its top executive.
