Mumbai and Bengaluru: Anmol Singh Jaggi, founder and managing director of Gensol Engineering Ltd, intends to debate regulatory orders, prohibiting him from ruling and participating in the stock market even if plans to cancel his company Matrix Gas and Renewables Ltd and Blu-Smart Public.
The embattled entrepreneur told Matrix Gas investors that the Securities and Exchange Commission of India (SEBI) order was “unilateral” and that he intended to compete. Jaggi also shelved Matrix Gas Public later this year, and Blu-Smart, which is scheduled to be publicly released in the second half of next year, faces an uncertain path.
The meeting is held by investors ₹In a round of Matrix gas ahead of the planned initial public offering (IPO), Rs 155 crore was made in Matrix Gas. In July 2023, investors paid ₹122 shares ₹10 face value. In the same month, the company filed a prospectus with the national stock exchange to list on the Emerge Exchange of its mid-sized enterprises. Offering 5.6 million shares, the IPO may at least be worth it ₹75 billion.
Matrix gas does not answer the question.

On Tuesday, SEBI accused Gensol of securities fraud and forgery of founders. Market regulators prohibit Anmol and his brother Puneet Singh Jaggi from holding any executive or board positions at Gensol, or trading on securities until further orders.
According to investors quoted earlier, Anmol Jaggi said at the meeting that the Matrix Gas IPO (a draft document submitted to the NSE in July 2023) will not happen now. That’s because SEBI prohibits Jaggi from buying, selling or trading with securities directly or indirectly.
“Technically, since SEBI prohibits the sponsors from trading securities rather than companies, a Matrix Gas IPO can pass without the offer from the sponsor,” said Chirag Shah, senior securities attorney. “However, given the shadow of the regulator’s order, it’s unlikely to experience it now.”

Furthermore, Jaggi is said to emphasize that matrix gas has sufficient reserves and no additional capital is required at present. He also said the company is debt-free.
“The main question is whether the reserves in the company are intact, but this question has never been discussed. We were muted during the meeting and only asked questions through the chat box, so we could not clarify our concerns.”
On Wednesday, Blue Mart riders complained about missing in Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai respectively. A Blu-ray spokesperson declined to comment on the issues that plagued the company.
According to an investor deck sent to potential investors in October last year, Blu-Smart plans to go public in the second half of 2026. The company claims that it owns 8,000 vehicles as of September 31, 2024 and has raised $220 million in equity and debt from investors.

Starting in September 2024, Blu-Smart has been hoping to raise $50 million ( ₹The currency of US$4.18 billion is valued at US$335 million.
Gensol gave it ₹Loan of 148.33 crore, ₹According to Gensol’s annual report, matrix gases were 23.185 million between FY24 and FY24. Blu-Smart’s three subsidiaries, including Blu-Smart Fleet Pvt. Limited, received ₹13.887 crore rupees, while Blu-Smart Mobility Pvt. Ltd and Blu-Smart Mobility Tech Pvt. Received by Co., Ltd. ₹919 million and ₹27 million respectively.
“The trust of all stakeholders, including customers, suppliers and employees, has been destroyed, and anyone who engages in commercial transactions with Gensol now has a risk of reputational risk, especially after the conclusions reached by Sebi’s fraudulent acts against Gensol.”
