l The total loan book grew by 30% to ` 3655.97 crore as on March 31, 2015 from ` 2805.25 crore as on March 31, 2014.

l The total operating revenue grew by 31% to ` 463.22 crore during the year ended March 31, 2015 from ` 353.06 crore in the previous year.

l The profit after tax was 68% higher at ̀ 153.76 crore as compared to ̀ 91.44 crore in the previous year.

Higher net interest income attributable to the growth in the loan book, increased income from sale of securities and higher fee and other income contributed to the growth in the profits during the year under review.

3. DIVIDEND

4. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

I. The Economy

The Indian economy grew by 7.3% in 2014-15 with improvement in the performance of service sector and manufacturing sector. The policy initiatives and reforms brought by Government of India, a stable macroeconomic environment and falling crude prices aided in the recovery of the economy. The Indian economy topped World Bank’s growth outlook for the year 2015-16 and projected growth at 7.5-8.3% in 2015-16. The external environment is benign and challenges in other major economies like China and Russia have made India the near-cynosure of eager investors.

A sharp slowdown in rural wage growth, a muted hike in minimum support prices, flat growth in NREGA allocations has led to sharp deterioration in agricultural terms of trade, exacerbated

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

further by the recent unseasonal rainfall in March 2015. These factors should lead to a slowdown in rural purchasing power. The government’s solution to the rural distress is likely to come in the form of construction-led spending rather than the legacy solutions like welfare based programs, farm loan waivers, higher subsidies etc.

Inflation has been on a downward trajectory now over the last one year with Consumer Prices (CPI) down at below 5.5% levels in later half of FY 2015 from 8% levels in last year. The decrease in commodity prices, especially crude prices had a positive impact on both the inflationary expectations and current account deficit (CAD). CPI is expected to remain below RBI’s target of 6% by January 2016 and CAD is likely to remain below 1% of GDP in FY 16. Further, benign crude oil prices, recent steps to reduce fuel subsidies through decontrol of diesel prices and direct transfer of LPG subsidies to bank accounts of beneficiaries can contain fiscal deficit to the targeted 3.9 % of GDP and further lower in next couple of years.

On the monetary policy front, RBI reduced the repo rates twice by 25bps each to 7.5% in the fiscal year 2014-15 and further reduced repo rate by 25 bps to 7.25% in June 2015 signalling a softening in its monetary policy stance. The major determinants of further rate cuts would be the transmission of the rate reduction, food inflation, impact of the US federal policy on emerging markets and the government policies to ease supply bottlenecks .

Looking ahead, it appears that the economy is headed for an upcycle of growth as interest rates are trending downward and inflation has been reigned in. These macro economic indicators coupled with buoyant business climate and consumer sentiments is likely to provide necessary impetus to economic growth.

II. NBFC Sector & Developments

Banking system credit growth was 12.6% for FY 2014-15 over FY 2013-14. In line with the expected marginal increase in GDP growth, the credit growth in banking system may remain at the current level of 12-14%. The NBFC sector has been gaining systemic importance in the recent years and the share of NBFC has steadily grown from 10.7% of banking assets in 2009 to 14.3% of banking assets in 2014. NBFCs typically have several advantages over banks due to their focus on niche segment, expertise in the specific asset classes, deeper penetration in the rural and unbanked markets. However, on the flip side, they depend to a large extent on bank borrowings, leading to high cost of borrowings and face competition from banks which have lower cost of funds. Due to subdued economic growth, last two years, have been challenging period for the NBFCs with moderation in rate of asset growth, rising delinquencies resulting in higher provisioning thereby impacting profitability. However, comfortable capitalisation levels and conservative liquidity management, continues to provide comfort to the credit profile of NBFCs in spite of impact on profitability.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been trying to strengthen the risk management framework in the sector, simplify the regulations and plug regulatory gaps so as to prevent regulatory arbitrage between banks and NBFCs. The RBI Regulations/ Policy initiatives during FY 2015 that impact

DIRECTORS’ REPORT



10

NBFCs in general are given below:

• RBI has issued a revised regulatory framework for NBFCs in November 2014 which broadly focuses on strengthening the structural profile of NBFC sector and regulating NBFCs that have increased their asset-size over time and gained systemic importance. The rules related to minimum net owned funds were tightened and the deposit acceptance ratio, capital norms, asset classification rules, provisioning requirement, and corporate governance and disclosure norms were made more stringent.

• RBI issued guidelines on lending against shares as the asset class posed a systemic risk in the in the event of default by borrower. NBFCs are now required to maintain an LTV ratio of 50% and accept only Group 1 securities (specified by SEBI) as collateral for loans with values of more than ` 5 lakh, subject to review. Further, all NBFCs with asset sizes of ` 100 crore and above are required to report on-line to stock exchanges, information on the shares pledged in their favour.

• Budget 2015-16 proposed that Asset financing NBFCs with assets of 500 crore and above will be treated as financial institution under the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest (SARFAESI) Act 2002. This will significantly improve their ability to force a collateral to recover dues from defaulting borrowers and bring the NBFCs in parity with other financial institutions, in matters relating to recovery.

• RBI has laid down framework for NBFCs for recognizing, classifying and reporting Special Mention Accounts (SMA) wherein there are early warning signals at par with banks so as to help them take corrective actions to address the stress before it turns into NPA.

III. Business Review

(x) Outlook for the current year

The macro-economic environment in India is stable, reforms are continuing, the deceleration in growth has ended, the economy appears now to be recovering and the growth prospects are likely to improve in the current fiscal year.

Your company’s lending business is growing satisfactorily and steady growth is expected in the current year. Your Company will continue to diversify its loan book by increasing its focus on corporate loan and other loan products such as developer loan, loan against property, project finance etc. The current interest rate scenario and the rising competition with aggressive pricing strategy followed by competitors may, however, put pressure on the interest rate margin. Going forward, the Company will continue with its efforts in establishing itself as a preferred partner with quick turnaround time and best practices. The company proposes to enlarge its lending operations through launch of Retail Business resultantly distributing risk amongst a larger customer base and bringing more visibility in the revenue estimates.

The Debt market is likely to remain stable with price volatility being range bound. The bond yields would head lower on expectations of further monetary easing. The Fixed Income desk will capitalise the volatility in the market and capture the swings in the yields.

The gains from the equity market this year will be benign and will track the earnings growth, which are likely beginning the 3rd quarter of FY 2015-16. The equity desk will consolidate the equity portfolio and add stocks that have earning visibility for next couple of years.

Overall the outlook for your Company’s business is favourable and your Company is well poised to grow and capitalise on this opportunity.

NOTE NO. 13: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

13.1 Basis of Preparation of Accounts

The financial statements have been prepared under historical cost convention on accrual basis to comply in all material aspects with applicable accounting principles in India, the Accounting Standards (AS) specified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and Reserve Bank of India directions to Non Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs). The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company and are consistent with those used in the previous year. All assets and liabilities have been classified as current and non-current as per company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of services and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current /non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

13.2 Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires the management to make estimate and assumptions that affects the reported amount of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as at the date of financial statements and revenue & expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in current and future periods.

13.3 Revenue Recognition and Related Disclosures

(i) Treasury Bills, Commercial Papers, Certificate of Deposits and Zero Coupon Bonds

The difference between the acquisition cost and the redemption value is apportioned on time basis and recognised as income. The same is included in the carrying amount of these securities and the aggregate amount is regarded as cost for the purpose of valuation of stock-in-trade.

(ii) Government Securities, Corporate Bonds

Income from Fixed Income securities is taken into account on accrual basis, provided that interest rate on these instruments is pre-determined and interest is serviced regularly and is not in arrears. The amounts paid and received towards accrued interest on the purchases and sales of Government securities and Corporate Bonds are netted off at the year-end and are also recognised as income under “Interest on Government Securities” and “Interest on Corporate Bonds” respectively.

Accordingly, in respect of the transactions in government securities and corporate bonds dealt with on outright basis, acquisition cost and sale proceeds are the contracted purchase price and sale price respectively.

(iii) Collateralized Borrowing and Lending Obligation (CBLO) Transactions

Transactions for borrowing and lending under CBLO are recorded at maturity value. The difference paid or received on redemption is treated as discount paid on CBLO in case of borrowing and

discount earned on CBLO in case of lending. The difference between the discounted value on borrowing date or lending date as the case may be, and the redemption value of the instrument, outstanding on the Balance Sheet date is apportioned on the time basis and recognized as expense or income respectively. The unamortised discount on CBLO borrowing and lending is disclosed under other current assets and other current liabilities respectively.

(iv) Pass Through Certificates (PTCs)

The difference between the acquisition cost (as reduced by the proportionate amount of inflows) and the redemption value is apportioned on time basis (using the IRR at the time of acquisition) and recognised as accrued income. This accrued income is added to the acquisition cost (as reduced by the proportionate amount of inflows) of the respective Pass Through Certificates (PTCs) and the sum is regarded as cost (book value) for the purpose of valuation of stock-in-trade. Any income received on prepayments is added to the income.

(v) Equity Futures and Options

(a) The initial margin and the additional margin in form of fixed deposits paid for entering into contracts for equity futures and options are disclosed under the head cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet.

Similarly, on the expiry of the contracts and on exercising the options, the difference between the final settlement price and the strike price is recognised as profit or loss. Gains or losses on stock / index futures and option contracts are recognized on squaring up of positions or on expiry of contracts.

(c) The open positions are marked to market on the balance sheet date and net losses, if any, are provided for while net gains, if any, are not recognized.

(d) The daily mark-to-market margin paid to/ received in respect of equity futures trades is debited or credited to the daily mark-to-market equity futures account and the same is disclosed under trade receivable or trade payable, as the case may be.

(c) The open positions are marked to market on the balance sheet date and net losses, if any, are provided for while net gains, if any, are not recognized.

(d) “Income on Commodity Futures” represents the net profit or loss on settled/expired positions in commodity futures after adjusting brokerage and other transaction costs.

(vii) The brokerage, Securities Transaction Tax (STT) and other cost incurred in connection with the acquisition of securities are added to the cost of acquisition. The amount shown under sale of securities is net of brokerage and STT.

(viii) Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the same is established.

(ix) Profit/Loss from trading in equities is recognised on the basis of weighted average cost on trade dates. Profit/Loss from trading in government securities, corporate bonds, mutual fund units and other securities are recognised on the basis of weighted average cost on settlement dates.

(x) Interest income from loan transactions is recognised on accrual basis by applying the interest rate implicit in such contracts except in the case of income on Non Performing Assets (NPAs) which is recognised on realisation, in terms of RBI Guidelines. Processing fees on loans is recognised as income on accrual basis.

(xi) In case of securities transferred from Stock-in-Trade to Investment Account, the same is reckoned as sale at market price. Resultant gains or losses are recognised in the profit and loss account on the date of transfer.

(xii) Repo/Reverse Repo transactions for corporate bonds are treated as borrowing and lending transactions. The difference between the 1st leg and 2nd leg of repo and reverse repo transaction is accounted as interest expense/income on corporate bonds repo, as the case may be, over the period of contract.

(xiii) Interest Rate Swaps

Gains or losses on Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) are accounted for on settlement dates as per the terms of the contract. The net interest income/expense in respect of the contracts outstanding as at the year end is accounted on accrual basis in respect of contracts entered into for hedging purposes.
