Prospects

With several encouraging steps taken by the regulator towards helping the microfinance industry make further inroads into the society, the Company is focused on its growth prospects over the near- and the long-term. ICRA has revised its outlook for NBFC-MFIs from Negative to Stable, with the expectation of steady growth in the AUM and the improvement of profitability. The new RBI regulations have positively impacted the outlook for the industry, as they seek to level the playing field and create more room for the microfinance industry to have an impact. The removal of capping of ticket sizes and pricing by the MFI players further gives greater autonomy to the players to customize their offerings. The RBI master circular on scale-based Regulation, Income Recognition and Asset Classification, Prompt Corrective Action, and information security marks a push for further consistency and transparency in published accounts. The setting up of an account aggregator is aimed at further enhancing the interoperability of data and help the ecosystem in the long term, especially the customer through a smoother loan approval process.

Future plans

The Company’s strategy for FY 2022-23 will be to reprise growth by growing its disbursal rate while improving its asset quality.

JUSTIFICATION FOR ENTERING INTO RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At the time M/s Taraashna Services Limited (TSL) was set up, NBFCs were neither permitted to act as Business Correspondent (BC) for Banks, nor were permitted to take a stake in a for-profit NBFC. Hence, due to regulatory constraints TSL was created, with no shareholding from SCNL. To avoid any conflict of interest and for the benefit of the minority shareholders of SCNL, given the common promoter in SCNL and TSL, the management team took a call to share some part of the TSL''s revenue with SCNL, irrespective of TSL''s profitability. The revenue sharing agreement was signed in FY13. In June 2014, the RBI (vide its circular no. RBI/2013-14/653 DBOD.No. BAPD.BC.122/122.01.009/2013-14 dated 24.06.2014) permitted banks to appoint Non-Deposit taking NBFC as their BCs. As per these new rules, microfinance institutions operating as NBFCs (NBFC-MFIs) could operate as BCs. This was done with a view to help extend banking services to remote areas. In view of the change in regulations and keeping interest of all stakeholders; your Company acquired 7,977,239 Equity Shares of TSL equivalent to 87.83 % stake of TSL. By virtue of acquisition of 7,977,239 Equity Shares, TSL became subsidiary of your Company. Further, Board of Directors of the Company had allotted 1,087,456 Equity Shares of Rs. 10 each at an issue price of Rs. 457.82 per share including premium of Rs. 447.82 per share on preferential basis to persons and entities belonging to Promoter and Non-Promoter group pursuant to swap of shares of the Company to the shareholders of M/s Taraashna Services Limited in accordance with the provisions of Chapter VII of SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2009.

Further, during the current financial year, your Company has planned to enter into new business segments that can be beneficial for the enterprise as a whole. In April 2017, the Company has incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary in the name of M/s Satin Housing Finance Limited (SHFL) with Authorized Capital of Rs. 150,000,000 and paid up Equity share Capital of Rs. 100,000,000 with the objective of balancing the risks of your Company by diversification into secured lending and also by diversification of its portfolio from purely rural towards rural/semi urban and urban markets. Company''s foray into the housing finance segment will enable the Company to have a diversified customer base and is in line with the Company''s strategy to diversify into other financial products.. Company''s entry into this new business segment and focus on affordable housing will provide another growth engine that will contribute towards the growth of the enterprise as a whole.

Further, the remuneration paid to Shri H P Singh, Chairman cum Managing Director and the sitting fee payment to Non-Executive Directors (other than Investor''s Nominee) for each Board/Committee meeting(s) attended are shown under Related party disclosures segment under "Notes to the account" of Balance Sheet in terms of Accounting Standard 18 issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Satin started its operations in 1990 as a provider of individual and small business loan and savings services to urban shopkeepers. The Company was registered as an NBFC with the RBI in 1998 and converted into an NBFC-MFI in November, 2013. The business of your Company is primarily based on the joint liability group model of lending ("JLG Model") for providing collateral free, microcredit facilities to economically active women in both rural and semi-urban areas, who otherwise have limited access to mainstream financial service. The Company also offer loans to individual businesses, loans to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises ("MSMEs"), product loans for financing purchase of solar lamps and loans for development of water connection and sanitation facilities. The Company has incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary in the name of "Satin Housing Finance Limited" ("SHFL"). SHFL is in the process of filing an application with the ''National Housing Bank'' ("NHB") for registration to commence business relating to housing finance.

Resources and Liquidity

From fiscal 2016 to 2017, the Company has its (i) total income increased from Rs. 558.52 Crores to Rs. 776.67 Crores, a growth of 39.06%; (ii) profit after tax from continuing operations decreased from Rs. 57.94 Crores to Rs. 24.50 Crores, a decline of 57.71%

(iii) net worth increased from Rs. 324.01Crores to Rs. 662.22 Crores, a growth of 104.38%. Your Company''s funding requirement has increased with the growth of its business. Its total borrowings increased by 40% from Rs.2,748.32 Crore as on March 31, 2016 to Rs. 3,855.35 Crore as on March 31, 2017. Satin meets its funding requirements through a diverse set of sources which includes Loans from Banks and Financial Institutions, Non-Convertible Debentures, External Commercial Borrowings, Commercial Papers and other Sub-Debts. Satin has also securitized some of its future receivables resulting in a reduction in its debt servicing cost. Satin''s capital needs have also been supplemented by equity infusions, and the Company has raised several rounds of Equity Capital with the continued support of its existing and new investors. Satin''s continued business growth, liquidity and profitability will depend on its ability to obtain adequate funding on acceptable terms from relatively stable and cost-effective sources of funds, which in turn depends on its financial performance, capital adequacy levels, credit ratings and relationships with lenders and investor. An event of default, a significant negative ratings action by a rating agency, an adverse action by a regulatory authority or a general deterioration in prevailing economic conditions that constricts the availability of credit may increase Satin''s cost of borrowings and make it difficult for the Company to access financing in a cost effective manner.

Nature of Business

Your Company''s operations are spread across 16 states and union territories in India including Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Haryana, Maharashtra, Delhi and NCR, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, West Bengal, Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Chandigarh, with a focus on rural and semi urban areas. Satin has adopted a client centric operations methodology that involves direct contact with clients through group trainings and various meetings of group members with center leader which occur at regular intervals. The Company''s operations methodology also includes various pre-defined criterions for area selection, village selection and client selection which we believe helps us mitigate and minimize our operational risks. It has been our strategy to maximize our reach to financially excluded population, which we intend to achieve with the support of our technology-enabled business model. As a part of our effort to improve efficiency and reduce business risks, we are moving towards cashless collections in partnership with ItzCash, a payment solutions company.

Your Company has recently acquired TSL as subsidiary, pursuant to a special resolution passed by the shareholders on July 30, 2016. TSL acts as a business correspondent for banks and provides similar services to other financial institutions in rural and semi-urban areas. As on March 31, 2017, TSL has 155 branches across Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Bihar, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. As on March 31, 2017, TSL has provided services in respect of outstanding gross loans aggregating to Rs.449.76 Crores. TSL has partnered with four private sector banks and two NBFCs to provide such services and seeks to expand its association with other banks and financial institutions. The Board of Directors of the Company vide its approval through circulation on August 30, 2016, allotted 1,087,456 Equity Shares of Rs. 10/- each at an issue price of Rs. 457.82 per share including premium of Rs. 447.82 per share on preferential basis to persons and entities belonging to promoter and nonpromoter group pursuant to swap of shares of the Company to the shareholders of M/s Taraashna Services Limited in accordance with the provisions of Chapter VII of SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2009.

Further, the Company has significantly increased its branch network and intends to continue adding new branches during the current financial year. Company''s total branches increased form 431 in fiscal 2016 to 618 in fiscal 2017, a growth of 48%. Company''s current operations are focused in certain regions in India, namely Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and Punjab. Your Company intends to further increase its penetration in some of these regions as well as expand in other states in India where it historically had no operations. Such further expansion will increase the size of its business as well as the scope and reach of its operations and will involve some start-up costs to establish such branches.

As of March 31, 2017, Satin''s long term borrowing was Rs. 2,020.12 Crores and short term borrowing was Rs. 167.56 Crores, compared to long term borrowing of Rs. 1333.49 Crores and short term borrowing of Rs. 144.71 Crores as of March 31, 2016. Total borrowings of the Company as at March 31, 2017 include subordinate debt of Rs. 249 Crores compared to subordinate debt ofRs. 162.22 as of March 31, 2016.

In over 26 years of operation, Satin has developed partnerships with over 77 public sector banks, private sector banks, foreign banks and other domestic and overseas financial institutions. During the year, the Company has been availing various credit facilities from Banks, domestic and international lenders and from institutions for its microfinance operation which is the main activity of the Company.

The Company has been awarded by the Chamber of Indian Micro Small and Medium Enterprises ("CIMSME") for "MSME Banking & NBFC Excellence Awards-2016" as the Best NBFC-MFI (NBFC-MFI Category) and as CSR Initiatives & Business Responsibility Award- Runner-up- (NBFC-MFI Category) on January 12, 2017.

The overall liquidity and funding position of the Company is comfortable. The Company has been regular in repayment to all its lenders and has excellent relationship with all the financial institutions and banks.

Industry Scenario

The MFIs have built a large distribution network in urban and rural India which they are leveraging to distribute financial and non-financial products of other institutions to its members at a cost lower than competition. While these MFIs continue to focus on their core business of providing micro-credit services, they seek to diversify into other businesses by scaling up certain pilot projects involving fee-based services and secured lending, and will gradually convert them into separate business verticals or operate them through subsidiaries. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued a number of circulars and provided the required regulatory clarity. A major outcome of the guidelines was the involvement of credit bureaus to record and monitor the creditworthiness of borrowers. More and more use of Aadhaar as KYC by the industry. RBI had issued license for the formation of SFBs and payment banks to some NBFC-MFI and other entities. We feel that there will be more opportunities for NBFC-MFIs in the financial inclusion space.

During Quarter third of the financial year under review Government of India on November 8, 2016, ceased to recognize Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 rupee denominated bank notes as legal tender with effect from November 9, 2016.

Impact of Demonetization:

MFI sector adversely affected due to demonetization and due to dependency on cash transaction. During the year under review, your Company has done satisfactorily on all parameters and grown the business considering the challenges posed by demonetization. As your Company is in microfinance business, accordingly largely depends on cash transactions. Due to demonetization there is some negative impact on operations of Company post demonetization. Although RBI suggested number of measures to minimize the negative impact of demonetization and also came up with the notification dated December 21, 2016 and December 28, 2016 with respect to provisioning norms which stated that MFIs has permitted to defer the classification of loan as substandard by additional 90 days during demonetization period to minimize the impact of the same. This was misinterpreted by the local media and by the local agents which led to rumors of loan waivers / re-schedulements and that fuelled by hopes of loan waivers. The overall caps on withdrawal of cash from bank accounts also impacted disbursements and collection. Your Company worked closely with MFIN Focused Action Task Force and met with the local administration in various states to help and educate the customers about the MFI industry and to dispel the rumors aired. Your Company has also educated the customers and helped them to fill the forms for exchange of old currency notes. The Company has also started disbursements to existing borrowers from the amount collected and started digitization drive by rolling out TABs across all branches of the Company. Further, due to increased negative impact of Demonetization, your company has also initiated cashless collections and disbursement to boost the collection and disbursement during demonetization period and to minimize the operational cost.

While the Board of your Company feels that in long run, demonetization will be beneficial for the growth of the MFI sector and the Country with curbs on corruptions, money laundering and by ensuring transparency in future, there are also many positives for the MFI sector from demonetization, for instances:

- Budgetary boost for the sector: Allocation for MUDRA scheme doubled, and SIDBI refinancing for unsecured loans at reasonable rates.

- Regulatory clarity: Fear of state intervention for regulated MFIs has been put to rest - RBI is the sole regulator for companies registered as NBFC-MFIs

- Recognition from Central and State governments for the vital role played by MFIs in providing timely credit for the rural population

- Funding available for large established players: Debt funding is available at attractive rates as banks are flushed with liquidity

- Greater awareness about the MFI sector: The event resulted in a massive educational exercise across all levels and all strata of the society

- Impetus on digitization and cashless transactions to benefit all stakeholders Business Review

Despite the negative impact of demonetization on company''s operations, your Company has done satisfactorily during the financial year 2016-17. The Company has disbursed 1,566,341 loans totaling Rs. 3,593.64 Crores during the year ended March 31, 2017 against Rs. 3,606.11 Crores during the previous year. The net outstanding portfolio (including managed portfolio and net of provisions) as at March 31, 2017 is Rs. 3,555.98 Crores. Presently, total number of branches are 618 as on March 31, 2017 as against 431 as on March 31, 2016.

Post demonetization, from November 09, 2016 to March 31, 2017, the Company has raised Rs. 1348 Crores through Debt/NCDs including Sub Debt of Rs. 35 Crores.

The Company has an experienced and stable management team and Board of Directors. The Company is hopeful of performing well during the current year.

Opportunities

We believe there is significant business opportunity and regulatory push in the areas, with the RBI actively supporting NBFC-MFIs, the business correspondent model, MSME segment and affordable housing finance etc. as a means to achieve the objective of financial inclusion for all. We believe there is significant potential for growth in the north, central and eastern states in India, which remain under served by financial institutions or other MFIs. Our primary strategy is to continue to leverage our experience, leadership position and presence in these markets, where there is substantial need, demand and opportunity for microfinance. We intend to expand our reach and operations in the states where we are currently present, both by increasing business transacted through existing branches, and by establishing new branches across the north, central and eastern regions of India. Our primary objective is to have diversified presence across geographies in India with significant growth opportunities for microfinance, which we believe will allow us to maintain stable and sustainable growth of our business and mitigate political and state-specific risks. In addition, our focused expansion in regions with limited availability of financial services will enhance financial inclusion and have a positive social impact, thereby creating goodwill for our Company, which we believe will further our growth. We will continue to evaluate opportunities for alliances, collaborations and partnerships, that meet our strategic and financial return criteria, and to strengthen our portfolio of product.

Challenges

While the regulatory environment has improved the stakeholder''s confidence still continue to be exposed to inherent risks in business model. During Quarter third of the financial year under review Government of India on November 8, 2016, ceased to recognize Rs.500 and Rs.1000 rupee denominated bank notes as legal tender with effect from November 9, 2016. Due to this, there is de-growth in loans by 5% in terms of volumes and 7% in terms of values compared with the Second Quarter of FY 2016-17 and significant downfall in disbursements also (by 48% in terms of volumes and 52% in terms of value) in the industry as a whole (Source: Report on Demonetization-MFIN). Although Reserve Bank of India came up with the notification dated December 21,

2016 and December 28, 2016 with respect to provisioning norms this stated that MFIs has permitted to defer the classification of loan as substandard by additional 90 days during demonetization period. Given that the microfinance borrowers belong to low income segment, customers are more prone to default. Moreover, with MFI operations concentrated in specific geographies, geographic concentration risks persist, these risks include natural disasters, social unrests, or political upheavals. As the Company target to tap the opportunities by entering into new geographical areas, the Company encounter with some key challenges with respect to meeting its expansion plans. Considering changes in state laws and with new partners in industry, opening of new branches and split of existing branches is challenging task before the management. Further, as industry is looking for more partners in coming time, talent acquisition and retention is also one of the major challenges. Training and development for employees and security risk are other potential challenge for the management. We are in the process of changing the entire technology platform for the company by providing tablets to all our field staff. This will bring lot of operational efficiency in the system. However; training a large workforce is a challenging task.

Outlook

The overall outlook for the Microfinance Industry has improved during the financial year 2016-17. There is greater emphasis today on credit score prior to disbursement of loans, and subsequent data sharing with credit bureaus. The credit bureau checks enable MFIs to assess the extent of leverage of prospective customers, and their repayment track record. The Microfinance Institutions Network ("MFIN") was officially recognized as a self-regulatory organization ("SRO") for NBFC Microfinance Institutions in India in June 2014. As an SRO, MFIN has been authorized by the RBI to exercise control and regulation on its behalf in ensuring compliance to regulatory prescriptions and the industry code of conduct. MFIN''s role as SRO also includes research and training responsibilities and submission of MFI financials to the RBI. With various schemes launched by Government for financial inclusion there are greater opportunities in microfinance sectors in the years to come. The focus of government on digital transaction will help in bringing down the operating and administrative cost and in long run, digitalization in transaction will bring transparency and good governance in financial system.

On the regulatory side, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) vide its notification dated February 16, 2015, and amendments thereon from time to time, provided the road map for Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (''Ind AS Rules/Ind-AS''). For FY 2016-17, Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs) are not required to apply Ind AS. The Company has its applicability from FY 2018-19 with the comparative figures for FY 2017-18. The other important reform on indirect tax regime is ''Goods and Service Tax'' which will subsume various indirect taxes including central excise duty, services tax, additional customs duty, surcharges and state-level value added tax. Your Company is looking forward to enhanced challenges and increased opportunity from such regulatory reforms.

Risk & Concerns

As you may aware that your Company is exposed to financial, operational and political risks. Our financial performance is exposed to interest rate risk, and an inability to manage our interest rate expenses may have a material adverse effect on our business prospects and result of operations. Our microfinance loans are unsecured and therefore exposed to operational and credit risks. If we are unable to control the levels of our NPAs in future, our financial condition and result of operations may be adversely affected. Further, our clients mainly consist of low income generating women who are economically active and who have limited access to mainstream financial service. While we have developed an operations methodology pursuant to which we follow specific client selection criteria and ensure strict adherence to our internally developed risk policy framework, our clients may, at times, not be able to provide us with accurate or complete information, which may impact our clients sourcing and KYC procedures. Microfinance poses unique risks not generally associated with other forms of lending since it involves transactions with relatively high risk borrowers, and, as a result, we may experience increased levels of nonperforming loans and related provisions and write-offs that negatively impact our results of operations. Our clients are typically poor and illiterate women who have limited sources of income, savings and have limited access to formal banking channels, and therefore may not have any credit history. As a result, our borrowers pose a higher risk of default than borrowers with greater financial resources and more established credit history and better access to employment opportunities and social services. We have also recently introduced MSME financing and venturing in to housing finance business through a wholly owned subsidiary for which we do not have past data on the borrower''s behavior.

While we believe we have adequate risk management controls and have standardized operations methodologies to confirm the creditworthiness of clients, some of our clients may be able to furnish very limited information for us to be able to make accurate assessment. Additionally, our Subsidiary TSL, in its ordinary course of business, has entered into service agreements with financial institutions and banking companies, which require TSL to undertake certain default obligations, specified under the terms of the agreements if the borrowers default in payment of loan over a specified number of days. We require certain statutory and regulatory approvals and licenses for conducting our business and an inability to obtain or maintain such approvals and licenses in a timely manner, or at all, may adversely affect our operations. The industry in which we operate is highly regulated. Regulations governing us may in future become more stringent and onerous and the changes introduced may adversely affect our business prospects and financial performance. An inability to manage our growth or our proposed expansion activities, including new financial products or businesses, could disrupt our business and reduce our profitability. We operate in a highly competitive market and face competition from the organized and the unorganized sector across as well as from state-sponsored social programs, which could adversely affect our business prospects and financial performance. We face significant competition from other MFIs, non-MFI NBFCs, banks and other financial institutions. Our clients are also prone to borrowing from unregulated local money lenders and non-institutional lenders which may lend at higher rates of interest. The cost and availability of capital is dependent, among other factors, on our short-term and long-term credit ratings.

As on March 31, 2017, we had a network of 618 branches spread across 16 states and union territories in India. As a consequence of a large branch network, we may also be exposed to certain risks, including, amongst others:

- Difficulties arising from operating a large and multi-location organization;

- Difficulties arising from coordinating and consolidating corporate and administrative functions;

- Delay in transfer of data from various location to the management;

- Higher technology support services cost to achieve last mile connectivity and operational risks including integration of internal controls and procedures;

- Failure to efficiently and optimally allocate management, technology and other resources across our branch network;

- Failure to manage third-party service providers in relation to any outsourced services;

- Difficulties in the integration of new branches with our existing branch network;

- Difficulties in supervising local operations from our centralized locations;

- Difficulties in hiring skilled personnel in sufficient numbers to operate the new branches locally and management to supervise such operations from centralized locations;

- Failure to maintain the level of client service at all branches; and

- Unforeseen legal, regulatory, property, labour or other issues

To prepare for these risks, Company usually hold in reserve certain percent of assets in cash and in short-term assets. The Company maintains reserves and provisions in its financials for meeting expected or unexpected future contingencies. The Company follows a conservative financial approach by following prudent business and risk management practices.

Your Company is subject to various reporting requirements laid down by RBI including annual filing of certificate from the statutory auditor in relation to compliance with the conditions stipulated for an NBFC-MFI, quarterly return on branch information, reporting on change in directors, auditors, etc. and other reporting requirement under laws applicable to companies in India including under the Indian foreign exchange regulations. We are also required to comply with the directions applicable to systemically important NBFCs. In recent years, existing rules and regulations have been modified, new rules and regulations have been enacted and reforms have been implemented which are intended to provide tighter control and more transparency in India''s asset finance sector. We believe we are materially in compliance with regulations applicable to our Company as an NBFC listed Company.

The Company has adequate working infrastructure having computerization in all its operations including accounts and MIS. The Company is in the process of implementing new technology which will help to have accurate and timely information to take informed decisions.

Company''s Internal Audit department has an annual audit plan based on the risk profile of business activities of the organization. The Company has established an Audit Committee to review and strengthen the adequacy of internal control. The Audit Committee also meet the Company''s Statutory Auditors to ascertain their views on the financial statements, including the financial reporting system, compliance to accounting policies and procedures, the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control and systems followed by the Company. The Management acted upon the observations and suggestions of the Audit Committee.

Company''s Prospects, Future Plans and Business Overview:

The Business of your Company scaled up rapidly through increase in number of branches and employees of the Company. The Company
is expanding its business to new geographical territories. The Company is hopeful in achieving better performance during the
current year. It remains to be seen whether the lew of initiatives announced by the Central Government like ''Make in India''
programme, increased FDI limits in certain sectors, a financial inclusion effort through Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana and
India''s improved rating outlook gives a fillip to the performance of the financial sector in the coming year. Acknowledging that
Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) are engaged in financial lending to different sectors, the Finance Bill-2016 proposes to
extend the benefit to NBFCs. This is a welcome move as NBFC''s account for a big chunk of lending in the country. From a period
of low growth, high inflation and shrinking production, the Central Government has not only strengthened macro-economic
fundamentals, but has also propelled the economy to a higher growth trajectory. Various rating agencies and think tanks have
predicted that India''s growth would accelerate sharply in the next few years. There are some initial indication of interest rate
cut by few bankers, which may help the Company to reduce it''s cost of borrowing. The fluctuation in the foreign currency and
tough competition in the international financial market will continue to be a challenge but your Company foresees better turnover
and increased demand of its quality services.

The Company also planning to enter into financing for Small and Medium scale enterprise (SME) segment to augment their financial
needs and to capture the gap available. The Company feels that SME segment is viable option to diversify portfolio and business
risk.

Industry Scenario

The Industry has matured with stronger institutions, the credit bureaus are functional, the investors and lenders are back in
business, there is greater focus of the government on financial inclusion with launch of Micro Units Developments and Refinance
Agency (Mudra), greater regulatory clarity, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) considering giving new licence for Small and Payment
banks etc. In view of the above, there are better days ahead for Indian Microfinance industry. Microfinance institutions have
never had it so good in the past six years, at least in terms of receiving funds. Banks have opened their purse strings to MFIs
more than ever with the sector showing steady traction backed by a strong regulatory framework. The Reserve Bank of India on
April 02, 2014 granted in-principle approvals to two institutions to start new universal banks in India. Commercial papers (CPs)
are unsecured money market instruments and help corporate borrowers diversify their sources of short-term funds. CPs are cheaper
than bank loans. The Reserve Bank of India has eased micro finance lending norm of maximum 4 per cent variance in interest rates
for small loans offered to clients living below double poverty line. Limit of the loan amount, for which the tenure of the loan
shall not be less than 24 months, has been raised to Rs. 30,000.00 from the present limit of Rs. 15,000.00.The RBI allowed NBFCs
to issue Masala Bond, rupee denominated overseas bonds to overseas investors and significantly relaxed a number of restrictions.
ECB limit has been increased up to USD 100 million from USD 10 million or equivalent under automatic route for micro finance
activities. The Reserve Bank of India, on August 19,2015 granted "in- principle" approval to 11 entities to set up ''Payments
Banks'' and on September 16, 2015 to 10 applicants to set up "Small Finance Banks". There were several developments at the
national level that have been geared towards making rapid strides towards more inclusive and strategic financial access.
Moreover, alongside increasing schemes and policies to target more segments of the "ultra-poor", there have also been initiatives
towards directed development programmes for the microfinance industry. The budget for the year 2016-17 had several announcements
and proposals by the central government which has positive impact and would be contributory factor for Microfinance sector in
long run.

Business Review

The Company has done well during the financial year 2015-16 as compared to last year and it''s peers in the industry. First time,
the Company has raised floating rate Tier-II Capital (Term Loan). Micro Units Developments and Refinance Agency (MUDRA) Bank has
sanctioned it''s first loan of Rs. 35.00 Crores to the Company. The Company has started cashless disbursement in Gujarat. The
Company has introduced loan product for solar lamp where the existing clients of SCNL can avail a product from the nearby
branches. Satin has disbursed Rs. 14.03 Crores against 2,01,875 loans, for solar lamps as on March 31,2016 in the state of
Haryana, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.

Consulting Services Limited" on July 17, 2015. The Company has also received "Special Jury Award" 2015 for serving MSME''s from

Stock Exchange Limited (CSE) on May 19,2015, National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) on August 26,2015 and BSE Limited
(BSE) on October 20,2015.

The Company has an experienced and stable management team and Board Of Directors. The Company is hopeful of performing well
during the current year.

Opportunities

Financial sector development provides small enterprises and households with market access leading to their inclusion in the
regional and ultimately the national economy. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has recently increased the limit of eligible
borrowers to whom NBFC-MFI can lend and further liberalized some norms which is good for the growth of the industry and for the
borrowers. This has improved the support and confidence of all stakeholders for the microfinance sector. The Company is operating
in Northern and Central India where the reach of other MFIs is comparatively less and hence there is a huge opportunity to be
tapped and large population to be served. The Company is making all efforts to use its experience of working in the same
geography for last many years.

Challenges

While the regulatory environment has improved the stakeholder''s confidence still continue to be exposed to inherent risks in
business model. Given that the microfinance borrowers belong to low income segment, customers are more prone to default. Client
retention and acquisition are also concern for microfinance industry. Moreover, with MFI operations concentrated in specific
geographies, geographic concentration risks persist, these risks include natural disasters, social unrests, or political
upheavals. As the Company target to tap the opportunities by entering into new geographical areas, the Company encounter with
some key challenges with respect to meeting its expansion plans. Considering changes in state laws and with new partners in
industry, opening of new branches and split of existing branches is challenging task before the management. Further, as industry
is looking for more partners in coming time, talent acquisition and retention is also one of the major challenges. Training and
development for employees and security risk are other potential challenge for the management. The Company is also on verge of
shifting its technology base to improved system. The Reserve Bank of India has issued a series of circulars, directions and
notifications to give the required regulatory clarity. Also the MFI industry has collectively worked to bring back the
stakeholders'' confidence by working responsibly. The Company has a strong and experienced Board having multiple personalities
having experience in different areas. The Company''s senior management team has expertise in their respective field and the
Company has geographical advantage, time tested systems and processes, effective internal audit and risk department, association
with a large number of lenders and clean repayment track record, good credit rating in the sector which helped the Company to
achieve the performance better than its peers. The fluctuation in the foreign currency and tough competition in the international
financial market will continue to be a challenge but your Company foresees better turnover and increased demand of its quality
services.

Outlook

The overall outlook for the Microfinance Industry has improved during the financial year 2015-16. The Reserve Bank of India has
issued a number of circulars and provided the required regulatory clarity. A major outcome of the guidelines was the involvement
of credit bureaus to record and monitor the creditworthiness of borrowers. More and m ore use of Aadhaar as KY C by the industry.
There is greater emphasis today on credit s core prior to disbursement of loans, and subsequent data sharing with credit bureaus.
The credit bureau checks enable MFIs to assess the extent of leverage of prospective customers, and their repayment track record.
Additionally, the Microfinance Institutions Network (MFIN) has prescribed a code of conduct that provides guidelines for MFI
operations, and greater uniformity in their functioning.

With various schemes launched by Government for financial inclusion there is greater opportunities in microfinance sectors in the
years to come.

Industry Scenario

In 2010-11, India's microfinance market was facing difficult time but today, it can be said that the microfinance sector in the India has emerged from this crisis stronger than before. The Industry has matured with stronger institutions, the credit bureaus are functional, the investors and lenders are back in business, there is greater focus of the government on financial inclusion with launch of Micro Units Development and Refinance Agency (Mudra) Bank, greater regulatory clarity, RBI considering giving new license for Small and Payment banks etc. In view of the above, there are better days ahead for Indian Microfinance industry.

Business Review

The Company has done well during the financial year 2014-15 as compared to last year and it's peers in the industry. The Company has leadership position in the underpenetrated North India. The portfolio quality and operating cost of the Company is amongst the best in the industry. The Company has an experienced and stable management team and Board of Directors. The Company is hopeful of performing well during the content year.

Opportunities

Financial sector development provides small enterprises and households with market access leading to their inclusion in the regional and ultimately the global economy. RBI has recently increased the limit of eligible borrowers to whom NBFC-MFI can lend and further liberalized some norms which is good for the growth of the industry and for the borrowers. This has improved the support and confidence of all stakeholders for the microfinance sector. The Company is operating in Northern and Central India and the reach of other MFIs is comparatively less and hence there is a huge opportunity to be tapped and large population to be served. The Company is making all efforts to use its experience of working in the same geography for last many years.

Challenges

While the regulatory environment has improved the stakeholder's confidence still continue to be exposed to inherent risks in business model. Given that die microfinance borrowers belong to low income segment, customers are more prone to default. Moreover, with MFI operations concentrated in specific geographies, geographic concentration risks persist, these risks include natural disasters, social unrests, or political upheavals. The Reserve Bank of India has issued a series of circulars, directions and notifications to give the required regulator/ clarity. Also the MFI industry has also collectively worked to bring back the stakeholders' confidence by working responsibly. The Company has a strong and experienced Board having multiple personalities having experience in different areas. The Company's senior management team has expertise in their respective field and the Company has geographical advantage, lime tested systems and processes, effective internal audit and risk department, association with a large number of lenders and clean repayment track record, good credit rating in the sector which helped the Company to achieve the performance better than its competitors.

Outlook

The overall outlook for the Microfinance Industry has improved during the financial year 2014-15. The Reserve Bank of India has issued a number of circulars and provided the required regulatory clarity. A major outcome of the guidelines was the involvement of credit bureaus to record and monitor the creditworthiness of borrowers. There is greater emphasis today on credit score prior to disbursement of leans, and subsequent data sharing with credit bureaus. The credit bureau checks enable MFIs to assess the extent of leverage of prospective customers and their repayment track record. Additionally, the Microfinance Institutions Network (MFIN) has prescribed a code of conduct that provides guidelines for MFI operations and greater uniformity in their functioning.

Risk & Concerns

The Company is exposed to financial, operational and political risks. Because an Mrfs. loan portfolio is its most valuable asset, the financial risks i.e. credit, market and liquidity are of greatest concern.

Financial risks begin with the possibility that a borrower may not pay the loan on time with interest (credit risk). They include the possibility that the MFI might lose a significant part of the value of loan portfolio as a result of an economic downturn, hyperinflation, and other externally generated causes (market risk). Fanatical risk can also include changes in interest rates of government lending programs or the possible enforcement of laws. Marked risks include lower prices for borrowers' products and services, which could directly affect their ability or willingness to repay an outstanding loan. MFIs should be particularly aware of liquidity risk the lack or shortage of funds for current and future expenses or loans. Liquidity risk can result from an overly aggressive lending strategy, law levels of on-time payment and seasonal variations of demand or unanticipated expenses.

To prepare for these risks, Company usually hold in reserve certain percent of assets in cash and in short-term assets. The Company maintain reserves and provisions in its financials for meeting expected or unexpected future contingencies. The Company follows a conservative financial approach by following prudent business and risk management practices.

Adequacy of internal controls

The Company plans to concentrate only on Non Banking financial activities during the current financial year.

Resources and liquidity

During the year, the Company relied primarily upon Banks and Financial Institutions for its financial needs. The Company has been availing various credit facilities from Allahabad Bank, Ananya Finance for Inclusive Growth Pvt. Limited, Andhra Bank, AXIS Bank Limited, Bank of India, Bank of Maharashtra, BNP Paribas, Canara Bank, Central Bank of India, Corporation Bank, Dena Bank, Development Credit Bank Limited, Dhanlaxmi Bank, HDFC Bank Ltd, ICICI Bank Limited, IDBI Bank Limited, IFMR Capital Finance Private Limited, Indian Bank, Indostar Private Limited, Induslnd Bank, ING Vysya bank, M. V. Microfinance Private Limited, Maanaveeya Development & Finance Private Limited, MAS Financial Services Limited, Oriental Bank of Commerce, Reliance Capital Limited, Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI), Societe Generate, Standard Chartered Bank, State Bank of India, State Bank of Mauritius Limited, Syndicate Bank, The Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, The Ratnakar Bank Limited, The South Indian Bank Limited, Union Bank of India and United Bank of India, Vrjaya Bank and Yes Bank Limited for its microfinance operation which is the main activity of the Company. The Company has raised debt funds through term loan, cash credit limit, Inter Corporate Deposit, listed Non Convertible Debenture and also raised funds through securitization / assignment transactions. The Company has for the first time raised Tier II Capital in the form of "12% Cumulative, Rated, Non Participative, Non Convertible, and Compulsorily Redeemable Preference Shares". In view of the overall environment in the Microfinance Industry in India and better regulatory clarity, the overall liquidity and funding to MFIs has further improved. The Company has been regular in repayment to all its lenders and has excellent relationship with all the financial institutions and banks and is quite hopeful of raising funds in future for growth.

Industry Scenario

The overall industry environment has further improved during the financial year 2013-14. The Reserve Bank of India has issued fresh registration certificates to microfinance institutions registered as non banking finance companies (NBFC-MFI). The Reserve Bank of India has issued number of circulars, directions and guidelines on working of NBFC-MFIs. This has improved the support and confidence of all stakeholders for the microfinance sector. However, the Parliament Panel has rejected Micro Finance Institutions (Development and Regulation) Bill, 2012.

Business Review

SCNL has emerged as the largest Microfinance Institution based in Northern India engaged in providing microcredit on joint liability basis and individual lending basis. The Company has expanded its operations in Bihar, Jammu and Punjab during last two years and the experience and portfolio quality has been good in these new states. This has helped the Company to diversify its geographical outreach. The Company is quite focused on its processes and control and has very good portfolio quality. There is huge demand and supply gap in Northern / Central India and hence opportunity to grow the portfolio. The overall funding to the sector has improved. The Company is hopeful of performing well in the current financial year.

Opportunities

For last many years, there has been focus of the Government and the Reserve Bank of India on financial inclusion and the role of MFIs have been accepted by everybody in achieving this objective. MFIs have played an important role in reaching the unreached and to provide them access to finance at affordable rates. In spite of all the focus, there is still a large segment of society, which does not have access to financial service from the formal financial institutions. The Company is operating in Northern and Central India and the reach of MFIs is comparatively less in these geographies as compared to the Southern and Eastern India and hence there is a huge opportunity to be tapped and large population to be served. The Company is making all efforts to use its experience of working in the same geography for last two decade.

Challenges

Microfinance Industry in India has gone through the most challenging times during the last three years. There was lack of regulatory clarity and perception of all stakeholders was negative towards the sector. There were news about multiple lending, excessive interest rates, coercive recovery practices, lack of transparency etc. in the media and hence the overall opinion of all stakeholders was not positive for the sector in spite of the fact that MFIs were providing credit to a large segment of the unbanked population. The funding to the sector (both debt and equity) was drying. The Reserve Bank of India has issued a series of circulars, directions and notifications to give the required regulatory clarity. The MFI industry has also collectively worked to bring back the confidence of all stakeholders by working responsibly. The issue of over ineptness has been addressed by using Credit Bureau report. The confidence of the stakeholders is increasing and the required debt and equity funding is now available.

The Company has a strong and experienced Board of Directors and senior management team, geographical advantage, time tested systems and processes, effective internal audit and risk department, association with a large number of lenders and clean repayment track record, good credit rating in the sector. This has helped the Company to perform well in comparison to its peers.

Outlook

The overall outlook for the Microfmance Industry has improved during the financial year 2013-14. The Reserve Bank of India has issued a number of circulars and provided the required regulatory clarity. Many domestic banks have restarted lending to the sector which has provided the much needed liquidity. The MFIs have also performed responsibly and hence the overall outlook of all stakeholders has become positive.

Risk & Concerns

The Company is exposed to risks like volatility in the Indian economy change in government policies, regulatory uncertainty, increasing borrowing cost, and competition from the banking sector / other MFIs, volatile economic cycle, market risks, concentration risks and credit risks. The Company manages these risks by maintaining a conservative financial profile and by following prudent business and risk management practices.

Adequacy of internal controls

SCNL has proper and adequate internal controls to ensure that all activities are monitored and controlled against any unauthorized use or disposition of assets and that all the transactions are authorised, recorded, reported and monitored correctly. The Company works in computerized environment and all its operations including accounts and MIS are electronic.

SCNL ensures adherence to all internal control policies and procedures as well as compliance with all regulatory guidelines.

An audit committee is in place to review and strengthen the adequacy of internal control.

Strengthening of internal audit and procedure is a continuous process.
