2. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
The year was still under impact of the demonitisation of the high currency notes which was announced by the Government in November, 2016. Your company is providing the Micro enterprise loans which uses cash in the recovery operations. The installments on these loans have fortnightly / monthly collections of small denominations. On account of non-availability of cash post demonetization, the borrowers were not in a position to service their loans which led to delay and drop in collection rates.
The RBI dispensation on classification of NPA (allowing a further 90 days over the 90 days overdue norm for classification as an NPA) was misconstrued and deemed as repayment holidays, adding woes to the already affected situation. This was further taken advantage of by local politicians in states of UP and Uttarakhand.
Despite the company had been following cashless disbursements, still the disbursement was effected because of the withdrawal limits imposed on the people by the banks.
There was also shortage of funds as the lenders were under wait and watch policy.

- AUM increased from Rs. 55500 Lakhs to 79500 Lakhs.

The Directors have pleasure in presenting the 24th Annual Report
together with the Audited Statement of Accounts for the year ended 31
st March 2010.
The year was significant on quite a few counts for the Company. Inspite
of the global liquidity crunch, the business of the Company in terms of
Portfolio during the financial year 2008-09 and 2009-10, has increased
from Rs. 40,298,687 to Rs. 123,871,892 and in terms of active loan
clients, has increased from 6645 to 27004. The company generated public
interest as was reflected in the share price movement of the company.
During the first two quarters there was slow increase in business due
to shortage of funds as there was hardly any support from the Banks and
other Financial Institutions. The position started improving form the
3rd Quarter. With the improvement in liquidity and better fund flow and
support from Financial Institutions like, Friends of World Women
Banking, IFMR Finance Capital Private Limited and also from Banks your
Company continued to strengthen its positiontip to end of Financial
Year ended 2010.

Dividend
The Company has ongoing need of financial resources as the Companys
core business of Microfinance is growing fast. In order to meet its
growing funds requirement, the directors have decided not to declare
dividend for the current year. It has therefore, decided to plough back
its entire profit into the business.

amount on account of principal or interest on public deposits was
outstanding on the date of the Balance Sheet.
Appropriation
The Company has transferred Rs. Nil to Reserve Fund under Section 45 I

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Management discussion and Analysis of Financial condition including the
results of operations of the Company for the year under review as
required under Clause 49 of the Listing agreement with the Stock
Exchange, is given as a separate statement in this Annual Report.
Performance Review
The Company has during the year shown a modest growth in providing
loans to low income people in Urban, semi-urban and rural areas
primarily for meeting their productive needs. Initially the area of
operation was Delhi and gradually it has expanded to cover clients in
parts of Haryana & Uttar Pradesh. After opening 5 branches in Delhi it
established additional 18 branches in rural areas in Haryana and
Western UP covering districts of Faridabad, Mathura, Aligarh and
Hathras. The company has already deployed its entire capital of Rs.75
Mn. The company plans to expand in rural districts of Uttar Pradesh,
Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh
The company channelises its financial product to poor women in rural
and semi-urban areas through the Grameen based methodology modified to
a mini branch model. We have targeted this demographic profile as it
represents a section of the population that does not have access to
formal financial services. Although this population segment is earning
below the international poverty line, these women have proven their
ability to run micro businesses. Also, the company appreciates the
importance of women empowerment due to the central role within the
family and community.
The number of clients in centres varies from 10-20 with an average of
14 clients in each centre. For identifying economic status of client we
consider parameters like housing condition, income level, assets owned,
room shared per person, etc. After identifying potential clients
through motivation meetings we provide 4 days continuous training to
the women. The Branch Manager evaluates the group through the Group
Recognition Test (GRT). Once the Branch Manager approves the Centre,
loan will be disbursed to 60% clients on the 1 st centre meeting day
and the rest 40% on the next centre meeting day. Centre meetings are
conducted and repayments collected on a weekly basis.
The Board of Directors are pleased to advise shareholders that the
Company has turned around in the year under review and has posted a
good profit from its core business of Micro financing. The net profit
has been modest on account of initial start up expenses incurred on the
new business of Microfinance. The Company expects the Microfinance
business to contribute to the profits of the Company in the coming
financial years by expanding its operations and opening more branches.
Being a new line of business, the Company worked on a low key basis
with caution and now having gained insight in this line, the Company is
hopeful of achieving better results in the coming financial years.
DIRECTORS
At the ensuing Annual General Meeting, Mr. K. K. Raj retires by
rotation and is eligible for re-appointment. Further, Mr. K. K. Raj
expressed his unwillingness to be re-appointed as Director of company.
