$Bad_abcd_REJ=rcrd_op.txt
Is this a typo?
Shorten the solution krishmaths posted.
(no need to test for txt, since txt is what we replace)

Code:
awk '/\$Bad.*(GTS|JER)/ {gsub(/.txt/, ".log")} 1' file
abcdefghi
jklmnop

$Bad_ptrq_GTS=rcrd_ip.log
$Bad_abcd_JER=rcrd_op.log

ghijklm
$Bad_abcd_TYHS=rcrd_op.txt
abcgd

abcdefghi
jklmnop

$Bad_ptrq_GTS=rcrd_ip.log
$Bad_abcd_JER=rcrd_op.log
