5: What’s behind the fall in Sterling and Wilson shares?
Shares of Sterling and Wilson Solar, a solar engineering, procurement, and construction company, touched the lower circuit again on Tuesday on the National Stock Exchange. With this, the stock has fallen over 60% from its issue price of Rs780 apiece during the initial public offering (IPO). What gives? The promoters have sought an extension for repayment of loans taken from Sterling and Wilson. Promoters had originally promised to clear the dues within 90 days of listing and investors are seemingly disappointed that the promoters have not kept their word.
