Gensol Engineering Ltd.'s share price rebounded by over 5% on Friday, following a dramatic 40% decline over the past three days. The recent downturn was triggered by a rating downgrade from CARE Ratings, due to delays in servicing term loan obligations, as reported by the company's lenders.
CARE Ratings lowered the company's long-term bank facilities to CARE D from CARE BB+; Stable. Its short-term bank facilities were rated CARE A4+.
On Thursday, Gensol Engineering's stock fell another 10%, adding to the 10% decline on Wednesday and the 20% drop on Tuesday. The stock hit its lower circuit limit, reflecting investor concerns over the company's financial health and its ability to meet debt obligations.

The company's recent quarterly earnings report revealed a decline in both its bottom line and operational performance. Gensol Engineering reported a 6.1% drop in net profit for Q3, with earnings of Rs 16.9 crore, down from Rs 18 crore in the same period last year.
